Born in London to an English Father and and Irish Mother, we moved around various places in my early years including Dublin & Milan and then settled in Manchester, where I spent my formative years, discovering amongst other things Punk Music, MG Sports Cars and the photography of Man Ray.
I attended Art School in Salford and returned to London to study photography at HCHE now the University of Westminster.
I left in 1989 with a Degree in Film, Photography & Television and started to shoot Fashion & Music Portraits, in my first year out of college I photographed the then new face model Rachel Weiss for Zoo Clothing and my first magazine cover, Betty Boo for Record Mirror.
In 2003, I opened a studio in Mallorca with my wife the photographer Vikki Grant and I now divide my time between bases in London and Mallorca.
