A while back I was commissioned by Livv Housing to take some portraits for their magazine of Melanie Lewis, the CEO of Shakespeare North Playhouse.
The Shakespeare North Playhouse is a theatre, arts and cultural hub in Prescot. When we visited the building was close to completion and it was fascinating getting a preview, behind the scenes of the amazing space. And of course lovely to meet and have a chat with Melanie.
The 470-seater theatre Is not just hosting Shakespeare related events, the programme looks really diverse and I am off to see a showcase of 3 short plays written by young women from the region in September, which I am really looking forward to.
So it was great to see the Livving Magazine, Spring 2022 edition feature one of my photographs. And below are a few of other portraits from the shoot.

Recently I was back at one of my favourite venues in Merseyside - Spaces at The Spine, covering an conference event called Early Career Researchers Network organised by The British Academy.
The media world doesn't wait. Whether it's a press release, a breaking news story, or a social campaign, you need great images fast. Slow delivery doesn't just cost time — it costs you the story.
Currently available to take on commissions for events, PR and celebrations at the Grand National meeting in Aintree 9th to 11th April - get in touch ASAP - it is a very busy time for me and I get booked up quickly
