Over the past twenty years I’ve amassed a diverse collection of images that has proved to be a valuable resource for publishers and commercial clients worldwide. These photographs can be acquired direct from myself or from one of the agencies that represent my work. Below is a brief introduction to the sources and their specialisms. Video stock is becoming an important part of the mix and an increasing number of clips are available from Pond 5.

My still image and video clip collection is growing constantly as I walk our country capturing the essence of the British Isles. If you can’t find what you need by a simple online search please contact me and I’ll search my collection for you. My prices are competitive and I strive to deliver in a timely manner.

Photoshelter

This is the collection over which I have most control. There’s a search page that allows you to explore my images held by PhotoShelter and a price calculator for immediate purchase and download. However it’s usually possible for me to offer a personalised price if you have the time to contact me.

Alamy

This UK based general agency hold almost 10,000 of my photos and are very competitive and keen to attract your custom. If you need a quick solution, Alamy is a good place to get to know. All images are captioned and keyworded for your convenience. Alamy’s sales staff are very proactive at dealing with clients demands. Give them a go!

Nature Picture Library

I’ve been with this agency the longest and they have gained an enviable reputation for a deep collection of nature shots backed up by staff who really know their stuff. Specialising in nature, the environment and anything related to earth sciences they are UK based and should be your first port of call for such specialist images.

Gap

A relative newcomer to the stock industry, Gap have quickly forged themselves a much respected presence in the arena of garden and plant photography. This isn’t surprising as the owner, Iben Lund, has been in the business for decades and is a fountain of knowledge! I’m constantly impressed by her drive and vigour and often get emails from her at times when even I am taking a break. Some of my garden shots are co-represented on Getty via Gap.

Pond 5

Video is strong gaining ground and Pond 5 is one of the leading agencies in the field. All content is Royalty Free at the moment and they host a very diverse collection of clps, sound files and more, the perfect place to browse for rich media content for online or offline use. As new devices become available media users no longer need to feel limited to still images, video is as easy to embed in a webpage as a still shot and can be more engaging for our audience.

Red Bubble

This American outfit are a little different to the other agencies of mine listed here. They produce fine art prints, framed or otherwise, as well as calendars, greetings cards, postcards, teeshirts and hoodies! All with added artwork or photography of course. If you’re looking for that extra special very unique and highly affordable gift I’d recommend giving them a call. My collection with them is currently limited but will be expanding soon
