MANY FACES
The following image was feautred in Paws N Claws

My portfolio mainly consists of dogs and children – I love to be able to capture the soul, essence and character of what I am photographing and children and animals are more open to sharing this with you – I have some great friends to thank for the loan of their two and four legged children!

To view my portfolio click here

I began photography almost twelve years ago with an old manual camera and a role of black and white film, which saw me often lose many hours in the dark room developing my own photos. As life got in the way my photography took a back seat until recently with the gift of my Nikon D80 and Photoshop I have reignited my passion although with the technology I am only scratching the tip of a very large iceberg.

My second passion is dogs which, often sees me “dog showing” on weekends where I am available for ‘showing’ and portraiture shots. Examples of my work can be viewed click here I am also open for commissions, projects and other job offers

I joined Redbubble in order to display my work, have another artistic outlet, to view other artists work and learn to become a better artist. I encourage feedback – without it how can we improve? I have already become so inspired by other artists work available on redbubble. I would love to have the opportunity to work in collaboration with another local artist at some point, if anyone is interested please email me.

Thanks for visiting, I hope you enjoy my art
