photographer focus
Photography to me does more
to evoke an emotion and freeze
a moment in time more than any
other medium. Photography is a
creative process – it’s my life. It
is how I express myself.
Who are your influences?
David LaChapelle for bold
colours and surreal images, Nick
Knight for his creative vision,
Jim Fiscus for his illustrative and
post production style and Erwin
Olaf and Dave Hill.
Describe a day in your life.
I get up. Get ready. Start by
editing or doing a shoot.
What are the biggest personal
or professional challenges
you face on a daily basis?
Getting my name and my
images out there…
What are your favourite
subjects to photograph?
People. I love people all different
in age, race and styles.
Have you ever thought about
or actually stopped doing
photography?
Never. It’s like the air that
I breathe.
Is there someone you would
love to photograph that you
haven’t already?

Someone like Busta Rhymes.
My top pick would have been
Missy Elliott.
What advice can you give to
other photographers?
Keep doing what you love to do
no matter what!
What are your thoughts on
the paparazzi?
I think it is a shame how they
act – it’s like an animal preying
upon its kill and it’s revolting.
It gives us a bad name
and makes us professional
photographers look bad to the
general public.
