Not seeing the need to write about myself in the third person, being a photographer was not something I had in mind when I took those first photos of the woman I was with at the time. Rather, it was an exercising of my voyeuristic muscles.

By accident, these muscles have found excuses to flex themselves on a regular basis as the images taken on that evening where a pleasant surprise when later returned from the local chemist...an artistic venture stumbled upon and then almost begrudgingly pursued.

That was almost a decade ago now and I am yet to read a book on photographic technique or purpose - a healthy dose of trial and error and a dash of experimentation has lead me to my current style, which whilst evolved from my early working practice remains largely unchanged from that first night.

For influence I look largely to the surrealists and to a lesser extent; the spirit of Dadaism. Sometimes the erotic aspect is almost an afterthought and I do enjoy undermining and ridiculing sexual aestheticism.

My work is shot almost exclusively at my premises in North London and this location has become as important in my work as the models appearing therein. I see this setting as a small corner in my mind where I can act out my playfully twisted fantasies with a host of willing conspirators.

My work has been labeled grotesque and misogynistic by some. But I can live with that.
