‘It all began when I was six or seven: amusing myself as a sickly child with lots of time off school, by setting up the projector and losing myself in the Kodachrome glory of my father’s colour slides. I knew then I wanted to be a photographer. Over the years I’ve earned my living from portraits and from theatre photography … and nowadays I make YouTube videos, shoot lots of analogue film, and occasionally do stuff that could be construed as work.’
