​

After graduating with a degree in History of Art I moved to London to work
at Big Fish® where I became Head of Styling in their photography department. 
After a happy six years there I have recently gone freelance!  
I now split my time between styling and art directing for photo shoots and illustrating with some graphic design on the side! A bit of a mix but it allows
me to be diversely creative across a variety of mediums, satisfying my different loves and interests. 

Please contact me if you like what you see whether it is:

  • styling & art direction for food photography

  • styling & art direction for product photography

  • illustration

  • graphic design
