About
My name is Fred and I am a photographer based in East London specialising in architecture and the urban environment.
My journey into photography began whilst studying my bachelors degree in architecture at Oxford Brookes University. Teaming up with a close friend who shared the passion I learnt to shoot manually with 35mm film which taught me the fundamentals of photography- light, exposure, aperture, focus, composition as well as developing our own film in a university halls bathroom. My approach to capturing the world has been fed by my architectural education in the built environment, material craft and design. Over the past few years I’ve developed a style which is my own yet does not distract from the design, as such I aim to produce honest, beautiful images of projects that celebrate the contextual nature of their setting whether it be a dense urban block or beach edge.

Photography is a passion first and foremost and a camera is never far from my reach whether it be on days out exploring the capital or hiking landscapes around the globe.
