Flamingo are widely recognised as monogamous, meaning they choose, and stay with, one mate for their entire lives. The social structures within a flock are complex, and W birds very much rely on one another — they even mate at the same time, so that all chicks hatch at the same time.
I wanted to capture their special bond in a single frame, but flocks can contain up-to several hundred birds, and the resulting imagery would be messy, and lack any sense of intimacy, so I needed to focus on a pair of birds.
I dedicated an entire four-hour shoot to this image, and observed the pair for a considerable amount of time before I nailed the final image. I think it’s a special image that offers an emotional glimpse into the intimate bonds these creatures share.

Excited to share this new flamingo work from a couple of weeks ago. My ever-growing flamingo collection is a body of work that means so much to me – I feel so at ease when I am in the company of these birds, and thus I always gravitate towards them.
This was taken on the new Nikon Z7II, and it’s increased sensor size and dynamic range make it the perfect camera body for my work with flamingo. When I received the camera recently, the flamingo was the first animal I saw through it’s viewfinder.

I’ve grown massively as a photographer, and as a human being since I began taking photographs five years ago and thus, naturally, the results have changed too.
Many will remember my flamingo project from 2016; I recently revisited the archives of this project prior to undertaking an assignment last month with these beautiful birds.
Two years has now passed since the original project and it appears my creative courage, technical fluency and emotional investment have all grown.
The results of this years shoot are, in my opinion, much more powerful. They allow the subject space to breath, and the viewer an increased ability to emotionally invest themselves in both the image and the subject.

Yesterday was #PenguinAwarenessDay so I thought I’d share a new photograph in celebration. I have developed a soft spot for these wonderful little birds since I began trying to photograph them.
