I have been working as a freelance photographer since 2012. I have always been a photography enthusiast and enjoyed geeking out about photography. I have worked as part of photo teams and as a freelancer for companies, events and individuals shooting people, food, travel, products and special moments. I'm currently focused on food however, I enjoy all aspects of photography including teaching photography. I'm something of an opportunistic photographer, I plan for every shoot but I also make the best out of every situation and make the best out of the unexpected. I'm also a medical doctor and have many years of experience teaching undergraduate medicine.
