About Me



Try the BEST MySpace Editor and MySpace Backgrounds at MySpace Toolbox !Passionate about music and photography, I am committed to getting the picture you want, at a price you can afford. Even though I am old enough to know better, I am often to be found looking for the best new bands. Think of me as John Peel with a camera. Although to quote an old song, 'music is my first love....' my photographic range is much greater than just performance photography. Promotional images, product shots, reportage, yes even weddings. Samples of all my work can be seen at my website !

My Interests

Music,photography, art, travel, food and whimsicality

I'd like to meet:

Bands, musicians, performers, models and extroverts who want top quality but affordable photography to publicise their talents. I'm also starting to put together a personal project on people with tattoos (but not neccessarily OF their tattoos) so if you've had an encounter with a needle and some ink, get in touch.

Music:

I will listen to anything at least once. I love anything live, melodic and well crafted played by people who know what they are doing and care about music. Examples of what are like span from acoustic roots, to jazz, to rock, to rock and roll to pop. Just a few examples - leonard cohen, joni mitchell, bob dylan, carole king, neil young, nina simone, van morrison, crosby stills & nash, kate bush, caffeine, beach boys, the byrds, lou reed, velvet underground, the blue review, tim hardin, lee hazlewood, kurt cobain, the kinks, john lennon,austin/white, the beatles, paul simon, simon and garfunkel, sittser, jay quinn band, belarus, the band, chris french, buddy holly, jelly roll morton, lindisfarne, martyn joseph, rusty 66, derek brimstone, pink floyd, the eagles, 2 skinny dorks, colby logan and anytown, roland chadwick, dave matthews band, james taylor, the guggenheim grotto, razorlight, the stereophonics, radiohead, major healey, leadbelly, johnny silvo, richard digance and plenty more besides that I don't have the room or time to list here. Of course if you've commisioned me to do some photography for you, I'm going to be biased
