I suppose you could say I’ve been passionate about wildlife since I was a child.One of my earliest memories is of getting keen on fishing in a stream near our house, and while I was standing there waiting for the fish to bite, I’d start noticing all the wildlife.I’d rush home and tell my parents all about the animals and birds I’d seen.Later on I learnt a lot from my uncle, who’s very knowledgeable about birds, and I watched every wildlife series there was on TV.Then I bought my first camera, and a photographer was born!
I’m completely self-taught, as I don’t believe you can learn a skill by sitting in a classroom.That said, friends and colleagues say you get a lot out of attending courses—it just isn’t my experience, so I wouldn’t recommend it.Of course once you’ve learnt the basics, it might be fun to be a member of a photographic club, so you can work on projects together.
I’m busy all the time now that I’m better known, and I work spring, summer, autumn, winter, with hardly a break sometimes—not something I need or want to do, but I’ve got into the routine of it.I have to get the most out of each day, so I often find myself making notes for articles, say, or editing images, maybe, while waiting in a hide for a bird to appear.I try to be patient, but luckily there’s usually nobody to hear if I get across and start, muttering to myself!
The south-west is my home and that’s where I take most of my photos.It’s not that I mind driving or even flying further afield, I just feel there’s such a diversity of subjects here, from red deer to field voles, so I’m lucky to have them on my doorstep.I always ask my friends to tell me when they happen to spot an interesting or unusual animal if they’re out walking, but they don’t often remember! But I do sometimes get tip-offs from members of the public or wildlife organisations operating locally.
I’ve been working as a wildlife photographer for ten years now and have a pretty strong reputation, though I say so myself.I use the most sophisticated cameras and lenses I can get hold of, but that doesn’t make me different from any other professional photographer.And I put in a lot of hours, but again, that’s something we all have to do.I think what I’m known for is being able to come up with exceptional images in adverse conditions.And wildlife is a popular area at the moment.Of course, it’s not my only area of expertise.I dabble in (涉足) country sports, conservation projects and landscape shots as well.
I’m proud to say that almost all the subjects in my images are taken in the wild— under no circumstances are the animals put under any stress or their habitats disturbed, and where necessary I obtain the appropriate licence.I’ve very occasionally photographed captive subjects, but only if a particular commission—a request from an owner, perhaps— requires this, or if I’ve been asked to do so by the Secret World Animal Rescue Centre, which I’m happy to work with.
My range of clients varies from someone just wanting a picture to hang in their sitting room, to picture libraries and major wildlife charities.I’ve been fortunate enough to win a couple of international competitions.A while ago I spent ages checking the proofs of a book of what I think are my most beautiful photos—it’s out in the shops now, in fact.Something I haven’t done, which would be fun, is to travel round the country showing a selection of my images at local art galleries and libraries.I like the idea of making contact with the public.But who knows what else will occur to me?
