My home. Photographer. Civil Engineer.
Sunday 9th July saw me spend my morning photographing the 2017 Southend Half Marathon. I was doing so on behalf of Havens Hospices for whom the event is a major fundraiser each year. I managed to shoot 4,500 photos so if you were taking part there is a fair chance that I snapped you crossing …

This Sunday I will be shooting the Southend Half Marathon as a volunteer photographer for Havens Hospices. I will try and get at least one shot of everyone taking part although it is a big field and I will probably be working alone - unless anyone wants to volunteer to do some shots out on …
Ok folks. I am now all organised and you can now purchase digital download photos and/or physical prints from the comfort of your armchair with minimal input from my good self. For the HARP24 photos I will donate 50% of any sales I make to HARP once the bulk of any sales have been made. …
Had an excellent weekend photographing this years HARP24 ultra running festival / event HQ'd at Westcliff Rugby Club in Southend. Fabulous people both organising and taking part and great that I know most of them and this makes capturing them in action all the more satisfying. The photos will primarily be available for a month …
This morning I paid a visit to Trifarm - a purpose built open water swimming lake and triathlon centre near Boreham in Essex. This was my first visit there and it was not to use the facilities but to play taxi to my daughter who was having an open water swimming lesson there. The sporting facilities were …

Today was the 2014 running (clever huh) of the Southend 10K for Havens Hospices. It was a glorious morning and as I am prone to doing I took my camera (and my daughters) out to take photos of all you fabulous people taking part. This is a bit of a temporary post as I don't …
The 90th running of Southend parkrun took place on Saturday and a record 277 runners and many spectators came out to take place and cheer. The event was special for a couple of reasons. Firstly it was a pacing event where a number of parkrun regulars had agreed to pace other runners to help them …
Today I took time out to go to the BUPA London 10,000 road running race which - somewhat unsurprisingly - was in London. I was there partly to support a few local runners but mainly to take a whole heap of photographs of as many of those taking part as I could. I succeeded in the …
At relatively short notice I decided to rock over to Brentwood this morning and snap some photos of all the guys and girls running in the half marathon. There were a fair few people running from many of the running clubs in and around Southend so I was cheering as well as snapping. I ended …
