I tend to print with high contrast, but recently I’ve been learning to appreciate lower contrast prints. My subject matter varies quite a lot but I like looking at more abstract forms and predominantly still life or landscape, rather than portraiture, though I have done some work in this area.

I’ve been taking photographs for a few years now, I really get a lot out of it, and out of the workshop too. Attending a course at the workshop is what actually got me really interested in photography, it was the trigger if you like, and I’m constantly learning new techniques there or just being astounded by the quality of some of the work I see people produce.
