"I am a London based Photo Assistant and Digi Tech.
As an assistant it is my overall goal to become a fluid, working part of the shoot. I enjoy making things run smoothly and I always aim to eventually be able to anticipate the needs of the photographer.
I am experienced in assisting on a variety of shoots including; Advertising, fashion editorial, lingerie, commercial fashion/web commerce, celebrity portraiture and beauty.
I have a good knowledge in most areas and anything I don't know I like to learn VERY quickly! Everything I do is with passion and fun. Hard work, dirty jobs and long hours are not an issue!
I have a keen interest in fashion photography and portraiture. I have shot catwalk and backstage at London Fashion Week and London Collections: Men for Notion Magazine and Vauxhall Fashion Scout.
I am currently focusing on learning video capture with DSLR's and working on short films.
Above all I am very easy going and have a genuine passion and love for photography.
