Living in London, I'm not only in England's capital, but what feels like the music capital, as I'm sure people will feel in other great cities around the UK and world. To have so many historic venues on my doorstep is wonderful.

I've been photographing music for over 10 years and feel very lucky to have worked with some of the most incredible artists, including Arctic Monkeys, Self Esteem, LeAnn Rimes, James, The Hives, Thundercat, First Aid Kit, The Big Moon, Faithless, This Is The Kit, Yard Act, Miles Kane, Ben Howard, Khruangbin and many more!

I love shooting a live performance, the unpredictability, the potential of capturing something iconic and the atmosphere that comes with live music in general. It's amazing to dip into different genres, cultures and styles, broadening my own musical tastebuds. Shooting for magazines like Rolling Stone has provided so many incredible opportunities and I feel equipped to capture any kind of performance covering BTS and portraiture too.
