For as long as I can remember I have had a love of all wildlife, in particular, birds and cetaceans. One of my earliest memories includes a family holiday to Florida when I was just six years old where I'd sit and wait for a crab to appear from its hole every evening. That obsession with wildlife has never left me and has since combined with a long-standing interest in photography.

A love of foreign birding has seen me travel to South Africa on three occasions, British Columbia, both east and west coasts of America, Namibia, Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra, the Camargue, Lesbos, Spain, Norway, Slovenia and Estonia
