“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see, and everything to do with the way you see them.”

Elliott Erwitt, Magnum Photographer, 1999

about liam

I am a photographer, filmmaker and visual story teller, currently based on the south coast of the United Kingdom.

On leaving University in 1996, and embarking on a decade long career in graphic design, animation and web development, I took a two year sabbatical travelling, working and conservation volunteering through the Pacific and Asia.  On returning to the UK, inspired and  brimming with a renewed purpose and drive, I decided to take a leap into a new direction with my first love, photography and film.

But where should he start?  A degree in Ecology would lead me towards the natural world.  A further degree in Human Geography and Politics fuels my passion for investigation, exposé and the documentary.  Itchy feet, and a need for new experiences, also drives me towards further travel and adventure.  Ultimately my love of design, patterns, and seeing the strange and beautiful in the world around us, is my ultimate inspiration.

what drives his vision

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

what kit does liam use

Equipment doesn’t matter, it’s the image, the composition, the light, and the technique, that all matter in taking a photograph, or shooting a story. That’s all you ever hear. If it didn’t matter, then we’d all be still using box brownies and super 8mm. It’s almost obligatory these days to talk about what kit a photographer or camera operator uses. DSLR, Mirrorless, Full Frame, Cinema, Professional Video, Lenses, Gimbals, Tripods, Drones, etc. So here goes. Nikon, Sony, Sigma, GoPro, DJI, Zhiyun, 3 Legged Thing, Benro, Syrup, Zoom, Joby, LowePro & HPRC. For a full breakdown of specifics then take a look bellow.
