After an 8 year obsession with photographing the phenomenal Northern Lights and winning Astronomy Photographer of the Year: Aurorae category, I finally decided to make it into a business! Photographic tuition workshop tours in the Arctic, guided by myself, it’s a great break from the office.

I launched commercial tours in late November 2014 and run them through to 2016. Putting my 8 years of knowledge to use, I was able to create package tours that beat the local guides because I pull on the best of all the locations across Northern Scandinavia.

I’ve had much success with my footage from working with GoPro, being featured on UK TV and winning a stack of prestigious photography competitions as well as currently in the rough edit for BBC’s Frozen Planet 2. And yes, Sir David Attenborough will be narrating over my footage if make footage makes the final cut.

If you don't build your dreams someone will hire you to build theirs. Here's to making a passion into a business!
