About
From the border of England and Wales.
I’m a travelling wet-plate tintype photographer and documentary filmmaker with a mobile darkroom and studio based in Marton, Shropshire.
After twenty years directing independent documentaries and films worldwide—from the streets of Katmandhu to the front lines of the Middle East—I’ve turned my lens toward a slower, more tactile form of storytelling. Today, I travel with 19th-century wet-plate chemistry and equipment, creating unique, unrepeatable silver portraits that capture the raw individuality of individuals, life, land, and community. My work balances this historical photographic alchemy with long-form, independent film projects focused on deeply personal human stories.
