Cricket gave me the chance to travel the world. Photography gave me the freedom to run wild in it.

Fine Art
A curated collection of museum-grade photography for your home. Each piece is produced on archival pigment paper to ensure timeless quality. Available in bespoke sizes for your unique environment.
I invite you into my world of photography. I have travelled across the globe, capturing people, wildlife and landscapes that illustrate the stark appeal of these often remote places and faces.
What you see here is what talks to me: soulful, unadorned expressions that speak of hardship, portraits of simple lives often coloured by the vibrancy of local cultures. Photography evokes a sense of freedom I felt during my sporting career, the ability to run wild in off beat locations, in search of that illusive shot. This is my story to date.
The British High Commission Exhibition
A Dialogue of Cultural Diplomacy
Commissioned to exhibit at the British High Commission in Cape Town, it was a distinct honour to personally present this collection to HRH The Princess Royal. This exhibition served as more than a showcase of imagery; it was a platform to share the profound narratives of craft, journey, and global resilience. Representing my work in such a prestigious setting underscores the power of photography to bridge cultures and spark meaningful conversation at the highest level.
Coral & Hive: An Intersection of Craft & Vision
We made this collection with Coral & Hive, a weaving studio in Cape Town and London. The colours and textures draw on two places: the deep oranges and dry earth of the Karoo dessert in South Africa, and the colours and daily rituals of Varanasi, India. You can see those influences in the way the weavers use colour and pattern.

Pakistan — Skardu
The Vastness of Silence
What I remember most about Skardu is how quiet it was. I could look out across a long stretch of sand and see jagged peaks rising where the sand ended. I hadn’t expected to see a desert so high up in the mountains. I kept coming back to that view as I worked on this collection. I wanted the pieces to have some of that quiet I felt standing there.
EXHIBITIONS
There's something exhilarating about being in the wild, running free without rules. It's the same buzz I felt in my sporting career—sharp instincts and a constant search for the next opportunity.
