ABOUT ME
Meet the Photographer
Welcome!
My photography journey began in 2015 at Banstead Woods parkrun. With a lot of encouragement from good friends Don Esslemont and Chris Phelan, I took some photos of the 5k run.
I really enjoyed the morning and I was hooked! My enthusiasm to become a better photographer saw me get some experience at local athletics meetings, however, I had lofty ambitions on reaching the Football Premier League.
My research very quickly made me realise it wasn't a very simple, or short, step. I set about finding a non-league football team that I could gain experience at and so it came to pass that on 27 September 2016, I made my debut as a football photographer.
The rest, as they say, is history.
Why a DBS Certificate is important
Booking a photographer with a Disclosure and Barring Service Certificate, gives you peace of mind.
It shows that the photographer puts safety and trust at the top of their priorities.
A DBS Certificate is a must have for many photo shoots and is required by law.
The purpose of the DBS checks is to provide information on our criminal records and ensure that we are eligible to work with vulnerable groups, such as children or adults with disabilities

Why a Health & Safety Policy is important
Healthy and Safety Law is enshrined in the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
It applies to Photographers when they are working in their studio or on location.
As a photographer, working with clients, you must ensure the health and safety of yourself and others "so far as is reasonably practicable".
Having an up to date Risk Assessment and Policy are key to ensuring compliance with the law.
