After spending most of his 30 years as a professional photographer in London and abroad, Steve relocated to Manchester in 2018. However, work still mostly takes Steve to London and overseas. A background in reportage/news photography, having covered major news stories across the globe for some of the world's leading newspapers, magazines, International Organisations and Governments. All this was perfect training for the dangerous world of celebrity portraiture and corporate photography, and for handling some of the world's leading actors, musicians, artists, business people and politicians. Steve's relaxed and calm manner under fire, whether it's from an exploding celebrity or a highly stressed art director, means his shots are neither rushed nor compromised and everyone can look forward to a good night's sleep. A regular contributor to the New York Times and The International Herald Tribune for over ten years as well as working with many other international publications. Concentrates more on advertising and corporate shoots. BA in History from UCLA and BA in Advertising/Graphic Design from Manchester Polytechnic and Master of Fine Arts (MFA) Photography, Art and Politics from Goldsmiths University of London.
