About

I DIDN'T START BEHIND THE CAMERA. I STARTED INSIDE THE BRANDS.

​​

Business development, product marketing, and high-impact brand visuals have shaped my career.

​​

I was born and raised in England, where a deep connection to sport and the outdoors took hold early on through football, racket sports, cycling, and golf. That passion led me into a career in the sports industry, working in product management and marketing across the UK, Europe, Asia, and North America.

​

I was on the teams that created products, built campaigns, and scrutinized budgets. I understand how brands use imagery and what’s at stake, because I’ve been at the helm of those decisions.

​

Next came startups, consulting, and entrepreneurship, which pulled me closer to the creative side. What started as a focus on creative services evolved into professional photography, where my expertise in marketing and honed eye for commercial imagery together were a natural fit.

​​

Today, with a home based in Oregon, I work with active and outdoor lifestyle brands to create imagery that doesn’t just look good, it performs. It tells a story, connects with the right audience, and supports real business objectives.

​

Because great visuals aren’t just about aesthetics; they’re about impact.​

​

WHAT I DO

​​​​

  • Photography & videography for brand and product marketing

  • Lifestyle imagery for athletic & outdoor brands

  • Architecture & interiors for the design and construction trades

  • Portraits & headshots with personality and purpose

  • Documentary-style coverage of brand moments and events

  • FAA-licensed sUAS drone imagery for aerial perspectives

​​​​

OUTSIDE OF WORK

​​

When I’m not on set, you’ll find me outdoors on a trail, exploring the Pacific Northwest with my family, or chasing around my gymnastics-obsessed daughter. That connection to movement, landscape, and real moments is what continues to shape how I shoot.

​
