I’m a passionate photographer, writer and public speaker, and I started Bear Content to use my creativity to help others.
I’m no ordinary photographer. Before turning pro, I spent 20 years working as a Chartered Financial Planner and personal finance expert. You might have heard me talking about pensions on BBC Radio 4 or read my investment commentary in the FT.
As well as my photography, I write and speak about content marketing.
I’m a member of the Society of Wedding & Portrait Photographers, and I hold the Trademark Surrey Hills as a member of Surrey Hills Enterprises.
When I’m not working, I’m a loving husband to a wonderful wife, a proud dad to three children, and now a proud granddad too – yes, I know I’m far too young!
I also believe in helping my community. I volunteer as Chairman of the Knowle Park Trust, and Event Director of Cranleigh parkrun.
