The iconic Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills in South Dakota, USA. Funnily enough as I grew up I kept seeing this monument in cartoons and in films but always thought it was just a fictional place. It was natural then to go and visit it when I had the chance back in 2010 on a road trip that started off in Salt Lake City, Utah and ended in Chicago, Illinois. It is an impressive monument – the scale really becomes apparent when you get up close to the monument. It depicts four of America’s presidents - George Washington (1732–1799), Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826), Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919), and Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865). The project took about 14 years and the sculptor planning and overseeing the work was Gutzon Borglum with the help of his son Lincoln Borglum. If you get the chance to visit this monument I strongly recommend that you also visit another extraordinary monument under construction very nearby called “Crazy Horse Memorial” A signed print from a limited edition of 10. Printed with a white border to accommodate framing/mounting and the signature - the actual size of the printed image is 94.6 x 198.2 cm.

Beautifully Giclée printed on Hahnemuhle Pearl paper - a slightly textured 285 gsm. semi-gloss paper which holds more detail with punchier colours than a matt paper, whilst maintaining a illustrative/ painted feel. Technology: Epson UltraChrome HDR Wide Gamut Inks with archival life expectancy: 40 years daylight, 200 years in dark. All prints are professionally printed to ensure the absolute best quality and consistency. I pride myself in strict quality control, hence I only use top professional printers based here in London.

I am a freelance photographer based in London. I enjoy a big love for travelling, which not only takes me around the world – with many great new images as a result – it's also a continuing source of inspiration which influences and feeds my passion for photography. With a background that started with drawing and illustration, which in turn lead to graphic design I believe the foundation of the way I compose my captures is very much affected by this. I often look for very graphic compositions with strong lines, large areas of strong colour, negative space and pushing the boundaries of traditional rules of composition. There is also a different approach to the way I like capturing my images when it comes to more travel reportage images. Still looking to isolate my subject, either by using shallow focus, leading lines, concentrating of light, picking out splashes of colour, and other techniques. Most images are very much as a spectator, fly on the wall if you like - I generally don't like posed images. I feel I get a truer picture when I don't interfere, but also I'm not hiding in the distance with a tele-lens - I like to be close to my subjects in plain sight.
