The purpose of a photograph is to capture a moment in time, creating lasting memories and stories that can be shared for generations to come.
Stories from the streets
Street photography was a new genre for me in 2019 and was born out of wanting something to do while out walking my miniature schnauzers, Rosie and Edie, round the streets of St Peter Port.
As Guernsey is a small island of 65,000 people, it is more challenging than shooting in a large, relatively anonymous city.
Stories about strangers
This ongoing project is different to my street photography as I approach the person and ask for their permission to take a 'street portrait' of them. They are all people who are unknown to me.
It can be rather daunting at times but, to date, I've only had a handful of refusals.
