Chronicling global metal since 2024 (here’s the story of how and why). Photos published by media including BBC online, Harper Collins, The Guardian, BBC Wildlife Magazine, The Big Issue, The Scotsman, Metal Italia, The Moshville Times. I keep a lot of photos on this page, rather than a select portfolio, because I’d like it to depict as many faces as possible of current metal (and the best metal often happens in the places with bad lighting) - scroll through to see what it looks like to be shooting metal in 2026. If you’d like me to shoot your band or event please do get in touch.
