Photographer, author, and educator. Travel and digital photography have been my love, but I'm best known as the author of over 40 books (over 190 if you count all the co-editions) . They're almost all on photography and include the best-selling Digital Photographer's Handbook published in twenty languages and sold over 700,000 copies. My award-winning 'Photography - the definitive visual history' is a lavish and rich history of photography from a fresh perspective that was published in 2014. It's the book I'm most proud of. The latest, is my 'Photography - history:art:technique' is a beautifully packaged up-date of the perennial Eyewitness Companion Photography book.In 2019, I was awarded the prestigious Hamdan International Photography Award (HIPA) prize for Photography Content Creator in recognition of my authorship, workshops and teaching activities.
