As a boy Robert collected stamps. “Pouring over those tiny illustrations I would be transported to exotic, colourful, far flung parts of the World. Never imagining I would ever be able to travel to them”. But a passion for images of a different kind - photography and film – took him to more countries than he can name.
Commercially Robert has shot everything from cosmetics to cars, food to fashion, coffee to Coke, trinkets to trucks, and on every format from 35mm to 11” x 14” film; to digital 4K for TV and cinema.
In an age when the traditional craft skills of photography are barely remembered, when everyone has a camera in a phone, Robert’s passion for creating interesting original content, beautiful composition, with an eye for detail, is undiminished.
