I am a news, corporate and commercial photographer living near London in the United Kingdom.

I was born in Scotland in 1964 and have been a photographer for 35 years – starting out on local newspapers in south London.

I then progressed to cover assignments all over the world for The Independent and The Daily Telegraph newspapers. I also worked for Reuters before joining Getty Images as senior news photographer for ten years. Following on from ten years as co-owner of London News Pictures I am now freelancing.

My work has been recognised by the Picture Editor’s Awards, have been named News Photographer of The Year by the Press Photographer’s Year Awards and was a joint Pulitzer finalist for my images of the Arab Spring.
