Darkroom Printing Portfolio

10"x8" Fibre prints (Ilford Multigrade Fibre Base, Classic paper, 10x8). 

Nothing compares to the chemical output of a photograph. The quality is in the negative, if shot well; the negative is big enough (in this case, I want detail and sharpness), exposed correctly (thick); (good tonal range) allowing for exposure times to be controlled over a relatively consistant rate, then this opens up the possibilities of making a beautiful photograph after it is taken. 
When shooting the streets and the peripheries of Wycombe, I had in mind what the final output is going to be, a minimum of 75cm on the longest side print of an image, with quality and detail in mind, I would only shoot f/16 and above using the Mamiya 7ii. Making sure what ever i'm shooting will yield the quality and sharpness for a big print, the choice of camera is important also, 6cmx7cm negatives means a lot of detail. The Mamiya glass is fuching crystal clear.

This is one day of darkroom printing. 6 x FB, 10" x 8".

Wedding and bookings

I am available for Weddings, Festivals, Gigs, Band shoots, individual portrait shoots, family/ group shoots, videography, dance videos.


Being a Photojournalist I have been trained to work fast and accurately and along side the journalistic approach I am also capable of being able to create a project with you. The documentary side to my practice meas that I have the patients and the vision of helping create long terms based projects, such as books, exhibitions, public talks documentaries etc.


It is your ideas I am interested in. For a shoot if you have an idea, a vision, it is my aim to try and get as close as possible to what is in your head and bring it into reality. That way you are happy and we are all actively creating something new and meaningful.


Interested in creating something together? Unsure about something? Or simple want to ask me something photography related then give me a message, always motivated to listen.
