About

Nick shoots people. In landscapes, homes - modest and palatial, private places, schools, hospices and hospitals.

He has a fascination with faces, the smooth unlined faces of children and the lined faces of their Grandparents.

The infinite colours of skin, hair and eyes.

Relationships, between friends, between families, between strangers, models on a shoot, are his obsession.

The body language, the mime that happens in a still image is key to telling the story.

He uses light and it’s interplay with form and texture to give the picture depth and colour.

He loves the sunlight of summer, the sparkling on water, vivid green saturation through leaves and grass.

Behind all this , quietly in the background, is the preparation, the organization, the post-production and his reputation.

He is now using these same fascinations in his moving images.

He grew up in Zambia and South Africa and has a BA in Graphic Design from Central St Martins College, London.

Pugs!

I have a collection of studio portraits of my two pugs which I have always kept very quiet. But demand has made me come out of the closet!

Here is a selection. No pug was harmed in the making of these images....
