Object and installation photography for galleries and museums

I have over 25 years experience providing archival photography to galleries, museums and libraries. I specialise in high-resolution digitisation of collections and installation photography.

I have high standards both creatively and technically and have a good understanding of conservation issues and expertise in handling cultural objects and art collections.

I also have extensive experience of digital retouching and restoration. I can provide consultation services to organisations looking to digitise their collections and in-house training if required.

This is as good as reproduction gets — a most impressive edition of a rare and monumental work.
Edward Maggs, Maggs Bros Rare Books
An exceptional amount of painstaking work, technical and scholarly, has gone into creating this reproduction. This restoration has been done with authenticity as the sole criterion and without guesswork.
Peter Barber
The results have surpassed even our hopes. We are thrilled that the thousands of visitors who flock to see the original Mappa Mundi will be able to examine its details at close quarters in the restored Folio Society reproduction.
Simon Arbuthnot, Chairman of the Trustees of the Hereford World Map

I use medium format high-resolution digital cameras that are comparable with those used in world class institutions which ensures that images produced comply with the stringent guidelines on digital capture that often apply within the heritage sector.
