Brighton & Hove, Sussex
I’ve always been fascinated by how people occupy their space, how fashion, objects and landscape can root someone in a specific time and place. I’m interested in gestures, light, and textures that express a mood, capturing joy or the reality of being human.
A course in documentary photography deepened this interest, teaching me how to build a story through images and capture moments that feel real and unposed. Since then, I’ve felt most at home in this field, documenting people and their environments with care and curiosity.
I love working with natural light and composition, aiming for photographs that are both honest and thoughtfully framed. One of my favourite lenses is a 50mm, which reflects the way the human eye sees. It lets me notice the small details that say so much, the texture of a jumper, a glint from a necklace, the way a mouth curls up or a face wrinkles in laughter.
I especially enjoy photographing children, meeting them at their level and finding genuine moments rather than forced smiles. I also work with community groups, clubs, and places of faith, capturing people as they come together, connect, and simply be themselves. My work focuses on the everyday scenes that feel true, grounded, and full of quiet meaning.
