About me

Profound Ambience is my way of creating fusion between poetry and photography. If an idea that excites me floats into my mind then I write a poem about it, or if I see a subject that just has to be captured in a photograph I click the camera, and sometimes I just join them both as one, poetry and the captured image.

 

My book Stepping from Thoughts is my story: experiences I’ve gathered, adventures I’ve challenged myself with, trials and tribulations along the way – my thoughts, and how I see the world. We all wear our own spectacles to view the world around us, so each interpretation will be different. These wide-ranging poetic stories have been written through my eyes, with honesty and, I hope, with fairness. I have done my best to also see from other people’s perspectives.

 

May aim was to create a book that the reader would keep, and draw upon again and again. Only time will tell, but I’ve packed the book with 60 highly relatable poetic stories, that everyone could enjoy. The book is also full of illustrations to help bring the poetic stories to life, enclosed in hard back to stand the test of time.

 

Regarding my prints, I set out to provide a sense of ambience into homes, a joyous feeling. I also wanted to create something different, which is all part of the journey. I wanted to take photography to a different level, so I created my Poetic Images collection, showing what I see, and then adding depth with poetry, displayed in stylishly chosen frames.

 

My Oily Images collection provides an alternative ambience, mounted directly on birch wood, providing a more natural feeling. The images have been slightly altered to provide a more painted, textured finish.

 

Again, quality and standards are paramount whether it's using high quality, museum art grade paper, and stylish frames for my Poetic Images collection, or wood from a sustainable forest in the Oily Images collection, I will always ensure the completed product highly compliments the image.

 

If I’m not writing or creating, you’ll find me standing next to a lake, beside a river, or perhaps on top of a mountain. I could be strolling along the coastline, sailing a boat or just standing in a field somewhere. The outside is a beautiful place and one that inspires giving a sense of life and escape.
