My exhibition is titled “Enchanted Encounters,” and is a collection of my analogue photographic work from my travels around the world. These compositions explore my fascination with people in their everyday surroundings and the interaction the subjects have with their environment and negative space. The human presence in each photograph reflecting an intriguing insight into a moment captured in time. With our often hectic and busy lifestyles, I am more interested in trying to convey a sense of balance and harmony, which are important elements to my compositions.
With over 45 Countries visited, street photography has become his favoured genre of photography which best expresses his own unique personal and emotional response to his many years of observing and capturing subjects in everyday situations around the globe.
A simple, well balanced approach to his work, are important elements to his compositions.
To date his work has been exhibited in Berlin Germany, Trieste Italy, Krakow Poland, Auckland New Zealand, Essex Junction VT /Minneapolis MN/ Los Angeles CA/Lexington VA in the USA and Sydney and Melbourne Australia.
