Cornish Light,
captured in images
Every photo begins with a walk, a camera and the hope that the light will do something extraordinary.

When photographing a sunset, one of the biggest mistakes is allowing the camera to expose the scene too brightly. The brightest parts of the sky—the yellows, oranges and reds around the sun can quickly become overexposed. Once those highlights are clipped, the colour information is gone, and no amount of Lightroom or Luminar editing can truly bring it back.
Instead, I generally recommend exposing for the sky and slightly underexposing the image. A good starting point is around ⅓ stop to 1 stop underexposure, depending on how bright the sky is and how much contrast there is between the sky and foreground

Digital captures of an analogue world
Landscapes are my passion, from the wild, moody glens and mountains of Scotland to the charm and beautiful light of Cornwall. I also love capturing the energy of events, along with commercial and brand work, portraits, weddings, captured in photography and video.
