Hold Back
“I look for moments that are quietly unique. Often an isolated thing or person in an environment that on first glance is ordinary but on second glance tells a subtle story. Light plays an essential part of how I see that story being told, creating a mood and provoking feeling in each image. As a travel photographer, I strive to catch the essence of the place I am in at that exact time. My role is to tell a story of that place for people to connect with.”

entry description
Wild swimmer on Sandown Beach walks into the sea in winter. I shot this scene from the coastal path. I like how surreal everything look from above. The sea looks like a blanket that she’s stopping with her feet. The idea that she’s entering into it, as she’s so tiny and it’s so vast...it makes me take a breath.about the photographer
