I took my first bubble photographs in 2009 but, photographically, they were pretty dire, (see Portfolio/‘In the beginning…’). Exponentially, improvement came through bubble science research and studio lighting rig experimentation - an ethos that has been continual throughout my bubble photographing career.

Bubbles break barriers because everyone can relate to them regardless of age, sex, race.

Their usefulness transcends playful entertainment to contemporary and historical art symbolism to being useful and reliable subjects in many areas of scientific research and mathematics. There are certainly enough areas of investigation to keep me piqued and occupied for years to come.

My practice combines emerging and established research and art symbolism to provide pertinent photographs that will inspire and/or support the work of others. As a former forensic scientist, (I was a fingerprint expert) I get a real buzz from the detail.

To achieve my goals, I design and build complex studio sets and lighting rigs and create bubble solutions that can sometimes take months to reach a good working consistency.

In December 2014, I was made a Visiting Research Assistant to Prof. Stefan Hutzler, Leader of the Foams & Complex Systems Group, School of Physics, Trinity College Dublin, (not that I’ve done much ‘visiting’ since the first lockdown!). Contracted Image Contributor to the London based Science Photo Library and its affiliated agencies worldwide. Artist Collaborator for Elegant Clutter, specialists in creating, curating and installing bespoke artwork for the global hospitality, commercial and marine and care sectors.

In September 2021 I moved into a shiny, new studio at the Arena Business Centre, Wimborne, Dorset.

I have lived in Angola, Australia and Azerbaijan and currently reside in Poole, Dorset.
