My journey into photography started way back in the mists of time - well, the 1960's anyway! I was given my first camera aged 8 or 9, which was a Kodak Box Brownie belonging to my parents and I was hooked. The first film I put through it jammed half way through but that didn't put me off. I've progressed from 127 film which I used in the Box Brownie, tried medium format film cameras along the way and now use two mirrorless cameras, one for my Street Photography using a prime lens (fixed focal length) and one for Travel Photography using a zoom lens.
Using the prime lens for Street Photography means I can remain inconspicuous but I can still zoom in, just using my feet instead of a long lens - I find that people don't like have a long lens stuck in their face and a smack in the mouth may just offend!
The zoom lens comes into its own when travelling so that I'm not carrying a lot of kit and can travel much lighter.
I'm a former wedding photographer but now concentrate mainly on Street and Travel Photography. I'll still shoot the odd wedding so please get in touch - minimum charges apply.
