Damian has been a freelance nature photographer since 1997. Over that time he has built a collection of images of the wildlife and landscapes of the UK. By browsing his images you will see that he has a particular fondness for brown hares and coastal scenes, but is also interested in nature in all shapes and sizes.

A photography editor at a well known magazine described Damian as being very good at capturing the "overlooked and unloved", which he takes as a real compliment. Damian is happiest when he's out on the moors, mountains or coast searching for a tiny wildflower or elusive butterfly; He knows it has been a good day when the front of his clothes are wet and muddy from lying on the ground photographing a flower he's never seen before.

Damian has won many awards and has had his work published across the world by clients such as National Geographic, BBC Wildlife Magazine and Canon UK Ltd. He is also a director of the Wild Media Foundation and 2020VISION.
