Hello and thank you for spending a little of your time to view my profile.
I have been photographing since I was 15 and my first camera was a Russian Zenit slr 35mm film. Since digital I now use and shoot with a Nikon DSLR using a D3200, D3300 and a D7200 with a wide variety of lenses.
As well as a freelance photographer my other passion is writing and I have been a writer for some time now, writing mostly fictional novels.
I live in the beautiful and historical town of Chester-le-Street and love the historical significance it holds within the region around me. Having the added bonus of living not so far from the City of Durham and the City of Newcastle gives me much photo oppotunities which are enjoyed on many occasion on a quiet day out.
