About

It’s a real joy to work as a photographer, and I genuinely feel lucky that I get to do what I love—without having to “work a day” for it. I’ve always been a people’s person, curious about new connections and experiences, and photography keeps me close to some of the most talented professionals in sport and media.

Since taking the leap in 2019, I’ve built my own Portrait & Sports Photography business, with a strong focus on football. I started locally with Balham FC, then moved into freelance roles with Fulham FC Academy and Fulham FC Women’s first team, creating live and post-match image content for club media teams and communications. My press work has included major competitions across the UK and Europe (including UEFA and FIFA events, WSL, Women’s FA Cup, Women’s Champions League, and UEFA Women’s Euro 2022), and my images have been published by outlets such as The Guardian, The Times, the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail, The Sun, and others.
