Take a look into a world that not many people get to see.

This exhibition offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of the incredible men and women who bring life to the offshore world. Through authentic black and white photography, I've captured moments of quiet strength, laughter amid tough conditions, and a camaraderie built on trust and resilience.

Having spent 18 years working offshore, I’ve always been struck by the disconnect between the public perception of the Oil and Gas industry and the reality I experience every day. This project is my attempt to bridge that gap. By stripping away the color, these photographs focus purely on emotion, character, and the truth of what it's really like offshore.
Take a look into a world that not many people get to see.

My goal is simple: humanise an often misunderstood industry. I hope viewers leave with a new perspective, not just about rigs or drilling—but about the real people behind the operation, their lives, and the dedication it take
