About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Become an amazing freelance photographer!

ABOUT ME

Im a freelance photographer from London. I grew up in a small village in rural England and gradually moved up to the big cities. I was living in San Francisco for 3 years, getting my art school degree. Im now back in London, and have a huge passion for traveling and seeing the world.

Im a very open minded person, and I love to meet and exchange ideas with new people. Im very easy going and a warm friendly guy that loves to talk about anything with anyone. A friend of mine introduced me to the website a few years ago and Im really enjoying be able to meet so many cool new people from around the world!!

PHILOSOPHY

There comes a time when you have to man up and take life on like a real man.
