Each time I develop and tone an image I get a different result. No two photographs can ever be the same: each one is unique. I cut all my mounts by hand from conservation quality card and I have each frame made by local craftsmen to fit each photograph. The frames are made of reclaimed wood, most of it from the beach outside the studio. This level of skill and care is reflected in the finished photograph and I think that’s what makes them appealing to people who are looking for something more than just an image.

I’m one of a small number of photographers working today who still print and tone B/W silver gelatin images by hand, in the traditional way. I work in my own dark room at my studio by the sea. My interest lies in the unpredictability of employing so many toners on each image, because the chemicals always react differently.
