I created new photography for the various magazines published by the Builder Group based in London. In the early nineties, I photographed the major building developments in the City of London and in London’s Docklands. I photographed Canary Wharf rising out of the ground. I photographed similar developments in cities across the UK and abroad.
In addition, I photographed people from the corporate and finance world and the working environment on building sites.
The work included photography for magazine covers and to illustrate many diverse articles. The subject matter included people, buildings, archaeological sites, bridges, urban and industrial landscapes.
