The Lucky Escape





















Sanctuary








A Sanctuary is a place of refuge or protection. This piece of work invites you to explore the idea of sanctuary and think about your places of refuge. For me, the sea is my security, my confidant without judgement. Its ever changing nature brings life to the vastness in-front of me, inviting me into conversation with it. The calm and tranquil aesthetics of these images encourage you to get lost at sea, lost in your own thoughts.

These images represent the beginning of a life long project exploring the essence of the human spirit and its relationship with nature.

I left my heart in Berlin!











These images are a few from a series I produced about my trip to Berlin in March. We were only there for a few days but i fell in love with the place. I would definitely like to return in the near future! These images were taken in 'East Berlin' concentrating on the street art and decay of the buildings. This city has so much character and i don't think i saw a sad or moody face the entire time! Thumbs up to Berlin! 35mm

Eros








Culture of Nature

These images are the finals from my latest project at uni. I photographed the models with my Zenza Bronica ETRSi and printed the images. I then laid the the foliage on top of the prints and re-photographed for the final images. My review went really well and i got positive feedback from fellow students... now waiting for the final mark!

Brilliant Mistakes




These images are the result of trying out my Kershaw Penguin for the first time and making a mistake in the film processing. I accidentally measured the amount of developer for 35mm instead of 120 and so while agitating the bubbles made an imprint across the photos. However i am pleased with the aesthetics achieved here, something i that would never happen if i tried!
