I love photography as much as i love chocolate, though not as much as Crunchie bars =)

I used to own a big and bulky Canon DSLR, now own a sleek and sexy Leica.

Been into photography since i was 15, i am now 39. At 16 i did work experience with a local newspaper shadowing their photographer, Julian, who i learned much from, from there i went on to be commissioned for weddings, as well as dabbling in fine art with my Sky Art series of images.

Later on i moved into fashion, fetish and glamour photography for a three year stint until my health began to suffer.

In december 2011 i came out as transgender after a lifetime of denial and pain. Now i could not be happier, though i will be even more happier when my body matches my brain entirely.

I am now known mostly for my self portraits but i capture other things as well now, and now i have a new camera i am even more experimental with my work, and will photograph anything.

At the moment living back with parents while i get my life back on track. Also live with my dog Poppy who is an old thing now, 14, but still acts like a puppy, forever playing with squeaky toys. And 2 cats, Winston and his mum Pebbles.

Aside from photography, i love Sigur Ros, who make the finest, most majestically epic music ever, and reading, English classics, Jane Eyre is my favourite book in the solar system.
