Bournemouth Press Photographer
Providing press photography coverage from Bournemouth and throughout the South Coast.
Bournemouth Press Photographer
I am able to work closely with other people concerned with the story, such as journalists and picture editors, to come to an agreement on the photographic requirements for the story. I have worked for and have freelanced with the Bournemouth Daily Echo over many years, and have a good working relationship with the picture desk team.
With a creative flair and technical ability to produce images, often under pressure and tight press deadlines, my aim is to capture the best images which document current events and lifestyle stories, to convey a message, and support the printed word.
I am able to provide Digital Files in a format that best suits their final use.
