About Me

Hi, I am a UK based photographer, writer and retoucher/designer. I write and photograph for magazines - generally rock and metal based - as well as occasionally doing photography for bands and other clients.I have recently ended a two year stint at one of the country's finest digital retouching companies, doing post production work on photographs and images using Photoshop. I am now working freelance as writer and photographer but continue my Photoshop work on a part time basis.I also design flyers, adverts and so on when time permits.I run Crypt Publications which put out Crypt Magazine UK (currently on hold) and Crypt Promotions which ran the Metal Mass club, London's best late night Extreme Metal Club Night (returning soon).I also DJ on occasion at rock/metal/punk clubs (Never Say Die, Synthetic Culture etc) if anyone is looking for DJs for gigs or events, get in touch as I have an extensive list of regular experienced DJs to draw from.www.dayal.co.uk (updated soon) www.cryptuk.com And contact me on: [email protected]
