I used to work as an Art Director and was employed by the following Ad agencies: J Walter Thompson, Ogilvy & Mather and Saatchi & Saatchi. I was fortunate enough to have worked on numerous prestigious multinational brands and to have won many local and international advertising awards.

I’m now a self-employed photographer and retoucher, you can view my image library work at gettyimages.com.

This site is about my architectural and interior photography.
My affinity for architectural photography is probably because I studied product design and love the challenge of trying to convey the experience of beautiful three dimensional buildings though two dimensional images. It’s a subject matter that suits my temperament as I enjoy collaborating with talented architects and designers. The photographic shoot is the result of a conversation between the architect or designer and myself and the finished images are usually stronger as a result of this teamwork.

I live in Cape town with my family and enjoy reading books, drinking coffee and going on bicycle adventures.
