About Me:

As a humanitarian photographer, my work is focused on social issues and behaviours within the UK and Internationally. I have worked with many charitable organisations as well as other organisations such as prisons and social groups. I believe photography allows myself, as well as others, the chance to express themselves whilst also addressing important issues. As well as documenting the lives of others i work within photographic participatory projects, allowing others a 'voice'; expressing their own thoughts and feelings. The aim of my work is to help develope marginalised, disconnected communities and individuals in providing a platform and media, in which they can use to connect with the outside world. This then allowing others, such as yourself, to get a better understanding of their lives and push the boundraises in which you lead your lives.

"Being aware of every individuals fundamental rights by expressing issues within social communities through photography"

I am doing an internship with a fashion photographer at the moment [not the type of work Im into but I will learn from it and grow as a photographer and more importantly as a human being!! ] and then I have one with a documentary photographer in a few week time.

Just returned from Argentina, where, believe it or not, I was not taking photographs. I'm in Florida now (strange place to be sure), visiting family, and getting my head out of the whole New York City scene after many years, hopefully restoring my way of seeing... loved your "about me" description. Visionaires is proving to be a great resource and community. Thanks again, James.
