How did you get into photography?
I’ve always been fascinated by pictures. When I was little, to keep me quiet, my parents would put me on the settee with a big photo book, and I would be ‘gone’ for hours. I just loved pictures. I would look at a picture and have this whole story in my head about that picture… What happened before that picture, and what happened after. I’ve always been fascinated with that.
My dad had a camera, which I wasn’t allowed to touch. I knew that there was a connection, that the camera made pictures, so I was obsessed with this camera. I ran off with it a couple of times and got told off. In the end he gave up, and bought me my first analogue camera for my 14th birthday. From then on, it was just me and my camera.
Did any photographers inspire you?
To me, it was the pictures. I wasn’t interested in the photographers. That only came when I studied photography, because then you have to study various photographers and their styles.
