These pictures may have been made by using macro photography for the close up shots of the models and then taken normal shots of the sorrundings that the scene takes place in.

My 'Little People Project' started in 2006. It involves the remodelling and painting of miniature model train set characters, which I then place and leave on the street. It is both a street art installation project and a photography project. The street-based side of my work plays with the notion of surprise and I aim to encourage city-dwellers to be more aware of their surroundings. The scenes I set up, more evident through the photography, and the titles I give these scenes aim to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city, almost being lost and overwhelmed. But underneath this, there is always some humour. I want people to be able to empathise with the tiny people in my works.


In 2008 I started the ‘Inner City Snail’ project, involving the decoration of snails that I find around London. After decoration, the snails are then placed back, free to go about their business in the city. In many ways similar in theme to the 'Little People Project', Inner City Snail can also be seen as a satire of street art and, more generally, our need to cover every available surface of our cities with graffiti, signage and advertising.

Decisisve Moments

 A decisive moment is when something is caught naturally.
In this picture, a car is braking.

This picture is of a man running down ther stairs. I used a slower shutter speed to capture the movement.
