Love Travels
I love travels and travel as much as I can, including to some hidden gems off the beaten track… My story is that I first fell in love with photography whilst travelling the world. I grew up in a small village in Northumberland and didn’t get on a plane until I was 19. By the time I was 25 I’d travelled to every continent and I haven’t stopped since. I’ve set foot in Antarctica and honeymooned with polar bears in the Arctic, I’ve explored the skyscrapers of New York and the yurts of Kyrgyzstan, the forests of Costa Rica and the deserts of Namibia, I’ve visited incredible ancient temples in Mexico, Peru, Indonesia and Cambodia, and searched for unique animals everywhere I go – with highlights in Borneo, Brazil, Kenya and Madagascar. My camera comes everywhere with me and it was my travels that first inspired me to tell stories through photographs, so I could share my experiences with friends around the globe. Travel tips are always welcome as there’s still plenty left on my travel wish list

Love Travels – Marrakesh & the Atlas Mountains
I bought a guide book to Marrakesh ages ago and finally got to visit last year. The old medina is like a maze, but our wonderful hosts Eric and Didier at Riad Houdou walked us to the Djemaa el-Fna to help us get our bearings. This is the main square, surrounded by...

Love Travels – Svalbard – Little Auks & other birds
There are many special Svalbard birds to enjoy on a trip here. While in Svalbard I became an auk-enthusiast and spent hours watching the Brunnich’s guillemots (or thick-billed murres). These birds are like penguins that fly – although they don’t really look like they...
Love Travels – Svalbard Polar Bears
On my recent trip to Svalbard I was lucky enough to get to spend many hours up close with four polar bears on the edge of the arctic pack ice. One swam round our ship curiously checking us out, while others decided we were nothing of interest and so stretched and went...
Love Travels – Arctic photography – Longyearbyen, Svalbard
At 78° north, Longyearbyen is Svalbard’s largest settlement, the world’s northernmost town and an amazing base for arctic photography. Almost everything here (from the church and museum, to the ATM and sushi restaurant) is prefaced by the words “the most northerly…”!...
