A dance photographer's blog

A large sample of my work is contained in these blogs.

Each blog entry contains photographs, background and technical information behind each shoot. It also has the thought processes and behind the scenes stories that made up the shoot.

The most recent work is at the top and oldest at the end.

NB: Some of the blogs have been updated with new comments at the end to reflect how events progressed since they were shot.
