A: I think I saw the Spark in a YouTube video and decided that because that looks so fun I have to have one.
Q:What was your journey to becoming a photographer like?
A: A lot of working out what I wanted to do, I did a lot of free gig work shooting live band before going back to college and then uni, I still feel to a certain degree like I am still becoming a photographer.

A: People but most of the stuff I shoot is abstract, kind of arty.

Q: What do you love the most about photography?
A: The endless freedom and if you’re like me the joy of rules that can easily be broken bent and reshaped to suit you and your style.
Q: What helps you when you're struggling with a creative block?
A: Stepping away from the camera and enjoying something else for a while, sometimes it’s the most unrelated task or moment that will give me the brain spark to try something.

Q: Would you consider yourself an adventurous photographer, or do you tend to stay in your comfort zone?
A: I experiment all the time so I guess I’m adventurous, it’s boring to me to do the same thing forever so I like to try other techniques and ideas.
Q: What else would you like to see from Lensbaby in the future?
A: Some more optics for the Spark would be cool.
