Stories of Barcelona

I've been working as a professional photographer for 14 years and have found inspiration in the different countries where I've lived: from England, Italy and Spain, to Japan and Indonesia.

My passion for photographing people started when I went to Kyoto. I spent time on the streets, studying and photographing the exquisite geisha girls, with their doll-like looks. This experience led to my first exhibition, ‘Contained’, which consisted of portraits of women displayed in jars and bags of water. Since then, I have had a fascination with capturing the lives and stories of people through imagery.

My two favourite cities are Brighton and Barcelona. In both places, there are interesting things to photograph at every turn. Down every street there are fascinating characters, bands playing funky music, even quirky locals walking their pet pigs! There is always a story to be told.

Running my own photographic studio in the city has been an amazing experience and insight into Barcelona’s culture. I love capturing the soul of the people that walk into my studio and revealing their personality through a single image. It’s a real challenge but it pushes me to transform stunning images into bespoke art.
