Meet the photographer
five
countries I have photographed weddings in
I used to make films, now I do photographs! I'm a bit obsessed with indoor plants, music and film. I like globetrotting and also used to work on cruise ships.
I like coffee, vinyl records, plants, music - listening; playing; seeing - cooking, cheese, paddleboarding, fell walking, the film Notting Hill and all Bon Iver's music!! I also love colour! I have a shoe obsession and love a floral pattern and play with silk tags!
I have a dislike for Parma Violets, Marmite, and the feel of fresh sponges/foam.
I would like to take up Beekeeping and one day like to open my own little bar. I want to live in a log cabin and have a woodland cinema. I also love growing vegetables. I have an obsession with shoes, bow ties and my trilby hat.

I love all food and enjoy playing fetch, I am essentially a small dog in a cats body. GJP Is my dad.
I like hunting, climbing trees, curling up next to dad on my terms, lying in the vegetable patch. Drinking water from anything that isn't my waterbowl.
I dislike dogs, curling up next to dad on his terms.
Least favourite song // "Who let the dogs out" - Baha Men" - too many dogs!!
I like to annoy dad by walking on keyboard, licking my bum next to his face whilst he relaxes on the bed and once had a club foot when a bee stung me - as consequence I don't like the idea of dad becoming a beekeeper.

I live for adventures
I totalled up that I have been to 73 countries in my lifetime! I do love my foreign jaunts, however, I equally love a trip around the UK, along a beach, trekking up a fell, or just enjoying any kind of adventure.
My destination wish list // India, Tanzania, Bolivia, Brazil (in fact anywhere in South America) South Korea, Philippines - I'm always up for going back to China or the Caribbean too!
I love music! I play a few instruments and always have my headphones in tow. A few of my favourite artists include, Cat Stevens, Bon Iver, Laura Marling, Faithless, Kate Bush, MO & Hope of the States
Sundays are the day you'll often find me at the Watershed watching some niche film. I love foreign cinema, and the Three Colours Trilogy, Caramel, & I Served the King of England are among my must watch recommendations
I love music and film
My house has being described as a jungle, that's because I love the green suckers! I own a plethora but my favourites have to be my Tradescantia Zebrina - and my Alocasia Zebrina (when its not dormant) - I must like stripes. I had a Cacti called Salvador however he is no more.
He was named after Dali, which brings me on to art! It constantly inspires my life and my work and as you can see in the picture Wassily Kandinsky is one of my faves - others include Rothko, Klimt, Gormley, Pollock & Twombly
I live for plants + art
If anyone fancies a dinner date I am in! The kitchen is one of my favourite places to be, I love cooking (not so much washing up after) - I find it a place where I can be creative, whilst I also find the whole process relaxing and it helps clear my mind.
I believe Chefs are artists, I've had the pleasure of sampling many fine dishes in some of the best restaurants but one chef I am yet to treat myself to is Micheal O'Hare - That man is my chef hero, a pure food and art wizard!
I love food and cooking
