Drew’s talents cover landscape, wildlife and astro photography, photojournalism and all aspects of commercial photography. Inspired by his brothers, he picked up a camera at young age and got a 35mm film Canon SLR back in the late 90s. After a career as a computer games 3D artist, he became a full-time professional photographer in 2010. Since then he’s authored three books. The photo and visitor location guidebook ‘Photographing South Wales’ published by FotoVue and two titles, ‘Puffins – pocket book’ and the photography for ‘Wilder Wales’, published by Graffeg, who also publish his range of calendars every year.
His work has been featured in countless magazines such as BBC Countryfile, BBC Wildlife, Outdoor Photography, Digital SLR, Photo Plus, The Great Outdoors and Country Walking; and national newspapers such as The Times and the Guardian. Drew regularly takes on photography commissions. His clients include Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, National Trust, Natural Resources Wales, RSPB, Wildlife Trust, NHS Wales and many south Wales businesses and organisations. He also was involved in producing many of the time-lapse sequences and seasonal transitions showcased in ‘A Wild Year: Pembrokeshire’, a UK wide BBC Natural History programme shot over two years, featuring his home county of Pembrokeshire.
Drew is an ambassador for LEE Filters, who support his landscape photography workshops for all abilities of photographers and is also an official Wildlife Trust commercial operator permitted to run day and overnight courses on Skomer Island.
