About me…
As you’ll see from the scrolling list above, my work is quite varied!
Everything I do revolves around photography, whether that’s in taking photographs or sourcing / researching photographs for publications and exhibitions. I have always loved photography and social history and I’m so pleased that these are now my work as well as my passion.
Since 2014 I have worked with a number of photographic collections, including the amazing Photo Centre Collection at Berwick record Office. I’m currently wading my way through 2.5 million glass and film negatives, digitising and researching them as I go. You can find out more about the collection here.
My work with photographs doesn’t stop there. I also offer a scanning and restoration service for all types of photographs and negatives. Images form such a huge part in our own stories and it’s important that these memoires can be preserved. As I’ve worked with archival material for over 10 years now, you can rest assured your photographs are in safe hands with me.
Much of my time is spent carrying out research. Whether you’re looking to delve into your family history or learn more about where you live, I can help. Recent research projects have included a family tree spanning back to the 1200s and examining the story of a family cycle business.
I’m currently researching the fascinating world of travelling photographers in the 19th century for an exhibition in 2025.
