About

I've always been drawn to machines that are built with purpose.
Not just how they perform — but how they look, how they sit, how they feel in the real world.

Whether it’s a historic racer, a modern performance car or something unique, my aim is always the same — to photograph it properly.

No rushed sessions.
No heavy filters.
No gimmicks.

Just careful composition, considered light and respect for the engineering.

Published automotive photographer, covering Yorkshire and beyond.

Over the years, I’ve photographed everything from vintage circuit racing to modern drift and drag events, as well as private owner shoots across Yorkshire and beyond.

Motorsport remains a long-standing passion, while commissioned automotive shoots are available for owners who want something more considered than a quick snapshot.

Experience & Accreditation

I have photographed cars, motorsport and automotive culture for decades, including classic racing, drag racing, paddock stories, private vehicle shoots and automotive business work. I hold permanent VSCC accreditation, I am accredited with Straightliners, and I carry public liability insurance for motorsport photography.
