Hello

Welcome to heritage celebration


Connecting Heritage:
A Documentary Archive

The writing and photography on this site explore a rich tapestry of heritage, originally crafted for books, cultural projects, and editorial commissions. My work is rooted in the belief that indigenous communities possess a profound, shared identity—one woven from collective geography, memory, language, and values. Through my lens and narrative, I strive to capture the unity and the sacred trust that heritage builds within these cultures.

We hope this evolving collection inspires and uplifts you.

Photography Gallery

The companion gallery holds themed photography collections in a fine art style: Britain highlights inherited culture, Indochina emphasises village traditions, and India contrasts hyper-kinetic cities and the vulnerable beauty of its rural landscapes
