About

Looking slowly.
Leaving space.

I make photographs about the feeling of being present in a place just before it changes. My practice moves between landscape, architecture, and portraiture—drawn to gestures that are almost missed.

Based in London and available for editorial commissions, exhibitions, and selected collaborations worldwide.
