I haven't always taken photos.   

Infact, I have a career in film & have done for the best part 16 years.  Boulder Prints, for now, is a passion of mine, an outlet of expression for me to channel my love of being outdoors, thoughts and feelings, creativity & climbing. 

Ever since I was 14 years old, I've shot video & documented dedicated individuals or tribes of enthusiasts around the world, it's all I know really.  It started off with rollerblading, I've shot surfing & adventure travel as well as the odd ad for dog food or drinks brands but at the heart of all of these films are people & nature.  

Below is a short piece I crafted for an outdoor bag brand Millican.  

"Here doesn't define the end, but of possibilities for a new beginning. Outdoor therapist Ruth Allen, invites us to travel beyond 4 walls and step into nature, where we can heal, experience and take the next steps on our path."

I'm interested in making films that positions nature as the protagonist.   When a project comes in, I'm often considering what is natures role and significance in the context of the story we want to tell?  The film below for Soul & Surf, shot in the Algarve in Portugal, gave me an opportunity to make a film about a place & tap into what a place does to those people who visit.

This is where I feel most at home.  Freedom to work with nature and react to the nuances it throws back at me.  The people featured in this film were simply a way to connect the viewers to the place and help them imagine what being there would feel like.  This one is all about mother nature.

If Europe was a ship, then Portugal would be its bow...

When I'm not making films for brands,  I climb and make fun films of me and my friends sorting our feet out.

Here's a recent one from the Peak!

Over the next few years, you can expect to see me bringing some of my experience in film, to The Boulder Prints, to accompany all the new work I have planned for my photography prints & other new products.
