My mother was a photographer, and ever since I can remember I have always had a camera! I studied my degree in photography at Surrey college of art and design. I have a passion to travel, being a photographer gives me an excuse to travel alot! Since being a child I have always had a desire to explore the world around me. As we grow up our increasing sense of responsibility can quash our sense of curiosity. For me my camera keeps my curiosity alive and allows me not just to look, but to look deeper and explore. It gives me permission to explore environments that I would never usually have the chance to. It is my way of personally navigating the world, recording it and making sense of it. My work aims to go beyond the superficial world that appears clinical and indifferent. In its intimacy it attempts to explore the possibilities and preciousness of life. I have exhibit both locally and nationally and have had work in various publications including I-D Magazine and Creative Review. When I am not working as a photographer I work in the field of human rights.
