"What we do during our working hours determines what we have; what we do in our leisure hours determines what we are."

George Eastman - Developer of Kodak camera

My earliest experience into the magical world of photography was as a little boy, I remember getting my first camera and waiting for days to get the images back and seeing the magic and wonder in a photograph that I had taken. Years on I still get excited by taking photographs; they can excite, flatter, bring on emotions and of course evoke memories of what that particular image means to an individual.

I am now a semi-professional photographer as a Canon Professional Services (CPS) Member and a contributor to Alamy a leading rights managed stock photography library for photographic images.

Frederick James Gormer covering the London Marathon Based in the United Kingdom, I have a love for travel photography particularly in the United States of America. Travel and photography form a perfect and complementary partnership - documenting the diverse cultures, people and landscapes our world has to offer.

I have decided not to specialise in a certain type of photography and am happy to capture an image that pleases me or a client, recently I have embarked on portrait photography and have invested in a fully equipped studio. In doing so, I have developed new skills and become proficient in what has always proved to be a technically challenging subject.

My passion will always be to explore new places, capture the smile from a subject and to push the boundaries of my imagination.
