We were exhausted, both physically and mentally. After months of being busy, we needed to go slow. So we did what we both do best: Indi slept and relaxed by the pool whilst I grabbed my camera
Read MoreJust one year ago, I embarked on a journey to South Korea, a land that is rich in culture and history. As an experienced photojournalist, filmmaker, and travel TV presenter, I have a passion for exploring new places and discovering hidden gems. My mission was to craft a travel documentary that would tell the compelling story of South Korea and its people.
Read MoreWorking as a photojournalist, you sometimes find yourself covering stories the entire world is talking about and in 2003, the Iraq War was on everybody's minds. On a very hot summers day in August, I was sent on assignment to the Royal Navy Base in Portsmouth to photograph the return of HMS Liverpool.

These local traditions vary from region to region and, often here in the UK, are specific to a county, town or even a village.

Read MoreThe weather tends to be a hot topic of conversation here in the UK. To feed this insatiable desire with weather-related news, I've often been tasked by a picture editor to head out (sometimes literal into the storm) and get some weather photos. However, on this assignment, I didn't expect to photograph a windswept Twiggy on Southsea Prom.
Read MoreI've enjoyed documenting people's lives and sharing their stories from the moment I picked up a camera. And one subject I've continually revisited is the fishing industry; having always lived by the sea, I guess I have an affinity with their way of life.
