Passionate from a young age about the beauty to be found in everything around us, I enjoy finding and capturing moments of life and scenes from the natural world, be they grand and majestic, or simply, tiny details, that would perhaps go otherwise unnoticed.

As a result my images have been used by a broad range of websites and publications, including the Met Office, Buzz Feed, Salon, Telegraph, Spectator, BBC, The Dr Oz Show, Olive magazine, Grazia, Heute and Merry Maids.
