From a young age I was captivated by the various people that inhabit this wonderful planet. My career in hospitality further down the line has taken me to different destinations, experiencing new cultures, learning on the way how to connect and blend in with locals. I realised that to capture these experiences photography was the perfect vehicle. Connection is key where people are concerned, you need to know the story of the characters in front of you. Once they let you in on their life story, it’s your role as a photographer to portray that person in the best way possible.
