Welcome to my website! I’m a wildlife watcher, photographer, and educator based in Durham, North East England. You can navigate my photographic work here by browsing:

 

  • Projects – highlights from long-term areas of interest

  • Library – all my work organised by taxon

  • Habitats – highlights from specific habitats

  • Recent – my most recent work

I love the natural world and my photography is one way in which I engage with it. I also spend time recording wildlife for citizen science projects such as the British Trust for Ornithology’s BirdTrack and Nest Record Scheme, and Butterfly Conservation’s National Moth Recording Scheme. I created and maintain the Durham Moths website, which provides detailed information of all the species occurring in the county.

I aim to be as ethical as possible in my photography: I avoid harmful disturbance of animals and I never use bait or callback. The majority of my photography is local, and much of the rest involves sustainable transport. My photographic prints are available for sale here. I am always happy to discuss particular requests or further use of my photographs: you can contact me here. You can also find me on Instagram and Facebook.
