My main camera for landscape photography is currently the Fujifilm GFX100. This has a 102mp Medium Format sensor that produces images with incredible detail and superb colour. The 4x3 aspect ratio of the camera is well suited to landscape work. I use lenses ranging from 30mm to 200mm for this camera (equivalent to 24mm - 160mm on a full frame camera).

For sport and wildlife photography I use the Nikon Z9, a high performance 45mp full frame mirrorless camera, which is more versatile in many circumstances due to it's faster handling and extensive choice of lenses. My lenses for the Z9 range from 24mm up to 600mm.

When I want to work in black and white I use the Leica M11 Monochrom, a monochrome only digital rangefinder camera. The small size and image quality make it the perfect camera for urban photography. I use Leica lenses ranging from 21mm - 90mm for this camera.

I also use a drone for arial photography and video work.

I am currently using the DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine. This drone has 3 focal lengths built in which allows wide imaging as well as close-up photography.

Film photography

I also like to produce images using traditional film cameras. These range from Leica 35mm rangefinders, to a Medium Format Hasselblad, to a Linhof Technikardan 5x4 Large Format camera.

Each of these cameras have advantages for different subjects, and conditions.

​

The Leica M is the perfect camera for street photography. It is small and quick to operate, and the gritty black and white images it produces suits the subject matter.

The Hasselblad is small enough to carry over rough terrain, but produces a negative that is large enough to produce prints that are very detailed, and have a great tonal range.  

The Large Format camera is equipped with a full range of movements of the lens and film planes which allows complex perspective and focussing adjustments. It produces a negative with an astonishing amount of detail; Ideal for large prints.

Accessories

I use Gitzo tripods to support the cameras when out in the landscape. For precision compositions I use Arca Swiss D4 and C1 geared heads as these allow independent 3 axis micro adjustments. A Really Right Stuff BH55 ball head is used when I want to work faster.

​​

I use both the Lee filter system and Kase filters to control exposure with graduated filters, and enhance colours using a polariser.

​

I mainly use Lowepro bags as they are well constructed and offer flexible storage.
