About

Based in the North East and working across the UK, I provide professional photography and drone surveying services for a wide range of clients, including construction, property and infrastructure sectors.

Born and bred in the North East, I feel incredibly fortunate to live and work in such a visually diverse part of the country. Whether I’m in the countryside, along the coastline, or in a busy city centre, I’m always focused on capturing the right perspective—and I’m more than happy to travel wherever a project requires.

My background is rooted in traditional photography, where I developed a strong eye for composition, detail, and visual storytelling. What began as a long-standing interest grew into something more serious after being introduced to my first DSLR by my father-in-law, a keen photographer himself. From that point on, I was fully invested in developing my skills, with my work going on to be featured in the local press.

Building on this foundation, I expanded into drone photography and surveying to meet the growing demand for high-quality aerial imagery and accurate site data. Using professional-grade equipment and operating with a strong focus on safety and compliance, I deliver services including aerial photography, roof inspections, progress monitoring, and orthomosaic mapping.

Whether supporting ongoing site documentation or capturing completed developments, my aim is always to provide clear, professional outputs that clients can depend on.

If you’d like to discuss a project or find out more, feel free to get in touch—I’d be happy to help.
