I started taking photographs as a teenager and joined SPS in 1990. I’ve been on the committee for much of that time, sometimes as Secretary or President, but mostly ‘dogsbody’. Though I enjoy most genres of photography, I have concentrated in the past 15 years on Audio Visual (AV). Through this interest, Carole and I have made many AV friends, and travelled, around the world, sometimes lecturing, sometimes judging international AV competitions. I am a PAGB AV judge and have been on distinction assessment panels for the PAGB and RPS. I was honoured to recently be awarded a Fellowship of the Irish Photographic Federation for my AV work. I’ve accumulated far too much photographic kit, but mainly use my iPhone and Olympus MFT systems.

I started photography few years after when completed my studies at college. I’m a mobile photography and I started of with Huawei p8 by taking pictures on my holidays sure as beaches, landscapes and parts of UK where i love travel too. I brought my next Huawei called Psmart 2021 when I joined as member of Stafford photographic society in 2022 to gain more knowledge about photography and take part by entering into competitions with other members. 

So far I enjoyed my time at this club, some of members helped me with tips that as help me improve alot in photography and me having cerebral palsy I’m very proud what I achieved so far by winning PDI of the year and C2 colour category.

I’m now using I’m now using:-

Google pixel 6a, canon 2000d and tripod.

I’ve been into photography for 6 years and is my main hobby. My favourite subjects to photograph are dogs, landscapes and macro. I take most of my pictures on my Huawei P40 pro mobile phone and use apps on my iPad to edit them. I currently own a Sony A77 DSLR and mainly use this for macro and some dog portraits. Recently I was given a CPAGB for Photographic Merit.
