I am a wildlife photographer, writer, workshop and safari leader based in Northumberland in the United Kingdom.

My wildlife photography is driven by my appreciation and fascination of the natural world from my favourite local patch, The Farne Islands, to the birds and mammals of sub-Saharan Africa.

I’m very proud to a brand ambassador representing FUJIFILM UK and Formatt-Hitech.

After we missed out during 2020, I am looking forward to catching up with the puffins and other fantastic breeding seabirds on The Farne Islands.

I’ll be announcing dates soon once I have looked at any changes the National Trust may be making for 2021 visits.

For more information on Farne Islands Wildlife Photography Workshops, click here or contact me. Please note, the itinerary is likely be subject to change for 2021.

Photograph a range of fantastic birds of prey in two different Northumberland locations. On our rural photography workshop we photograph the birds in a range of natural settings using moss covered dry stone walls, in the dappled light beneath woodland tree canopies and amongst branches in native woodlands.

On Holy Island, we photograph the birds amongst the traditional fishing heritage and against the incredible backdrops of the historical Abbey and Lindisfarne Castle.

A dedicated wildlife photography safari in the private Timbavati reserve of the Greater Kruger. Incredible ‘Big Five’ photography and an opportunity to work with conservation organisation, Elephants Alive.
