My Story
I am a “born and bread” West Cumbrian, who has lived in West Cumbria all of my years.
During my early years I grew up in the village of Seaton (which was the largest village in England at one time), which is found on the western edge of the Lake District National Park.
My interest in Photography spans many decades, initially I had a 35mm film camera, from where I learned how to developed my own films and prints.
When the Children arrived, my photography hobby was put in to hibernation for many years, it was not until my 40th Birthday when I was presented with a Canon digital camera that my photography genes were rekindled.
From this re-beginning I have developed my photography in to a serious hobby, we are regularly out in the landscapes of the Lake District, Scotland and Northumberland trying to capture those special images, I also enjoy photographing portraiture and families.
Along the years I have built up a reasonable collection of camera equipment, including going back to how it began by purchasing a couple of 120 medium format film cameras.
