He shoots weddings, communions and baptisms, documenting events with a natural eye and attention to detail. He collaborates with businesses, cultural organisations and event planners to produce photographic content for communication purposes. He works as a production still photographer for theatre, and undertakes editorial projects and photobooks for private clients.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His training developed through attendance at photography schools and workshops with photographers of international standing. A passion for street photography has helped shape his eye and his way of observing the world. An enduring interest in visual storytelling and documentary photography continues to fuel both his personal and professional work.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":432637,"template":"","_doog-position":[1018],"class_list":["post-432638","contributors","type-contributors","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","_doog-position-contributor-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributors\/432638","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributors"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/contributors"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/432637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=432638"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"_doog-position","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doogreporter.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/_doog-position?post=432638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
