About
I am an Australian/Danish photographer living in London. My passion for photography emerged from a lifetime of travel, a love of nature, and a desire to capture images of some of the places and moments I have been fortunate to enjoy.
I have been incredibly fortunate travel has been a big part of my life, visiting all seven continents and close to 100 countries. I now live and work in the United Kingdom, with travel continuing to be a big part of my life for both work and pleasure. From a personal perspective, photography allows me to capture memories and to also share images from my experiences around the world. In particular, I hope, in some small way, my images can contribute to a greater appreciation of the beauty of the natural world and the world around us.
I am also passionate about conservation and I believe in giving back to the environment. This has culminated in serving as a director for African Parks in the UK. African Parks is a non-profit conservation organisation founded in 2000. The organisation strives to protect some of the most important conservation areas in Africa through long-term management of national parks in partnership with governments and local communities. African Parks currently manages 20 national parks and protected areas in 11 countries covering over 18 million hectares. Learn more about African Parks here: http://www.africanparks.org
