Our love of the natural world and passion for photography has resulted in this series of sensuously composed studies of flowers. The settings are often minimalist, the blooms, single or in small groups, lovingly photographed with dramatic contrasts in colour, light and shade. Base in London we have collaborated on creative projects for many years.

Orchids are associated with fertility, virility, and sexuality. These associations, coupled with their exotic appearance, have given them a long history of being associated with love, fertility and elegance throughout various cultures and time periods.
One of the major orchid family is Paphiopedilum. The name is derived from the word “Paphos” which is the name of the temple where the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite, was worshiped.
