One of the most difficult tasks for any photographer is getting the perfect shot of a person who is staring back at you while you do it.

Owner of Old Girl Photography. Graduate in Digital Photography at Durham College. I am especially drawn to fine art, architectural, landscape and community event photography. The world is full of fascinating natural and man-made landmarks, many of which tell compelling stories of survival or imagination or both. My aim is to find and photograph as many of them as I can. When I do photograph people, I most enjoy portraying them in a place or situation that inspires them. I have an infinite curiosity about the world. I'm not happy unless I'm learning.
