Hi, I am Steven Greenwood.
I’m going to level with you. I don’t like writing about myself. It seems a little narcissistic, but I feel it's only fair you get to know a little bit about me. So here is the abridged version.
Originally from a quaint fishing village called Manchester, growing up I always wanted to be a graphic designer or if that didn’t pan out, Batman. I’ve been interested in the visual arts ever since my father bought his first Sharp ViewCam. Don’t laugh, it was cutting-edge at the time. I was also gripped by the performing arts bug and picked up every musical instrument I could get my hands on.
Me and my amazing partner Hannah.
I moved down to sunny Cleethorpes with my family in 1995 and went to college to study music technology.
While at college I earned a living as a DJ at a local holiday camp (nothing wrong with a bit of Agadoo) and also started to gain my skills as a close-up magician. Like Dynamo, just he looks a lot better in a baseball cap.
While all of this was going on I started to edit photos and create artwork for various companies and clients.
My love of photography kicked in when I started working as a music therapy teacher for young adults with ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder). I used it as a way of documenting those special moments to share with their families. I became addicted to capturing those images that highlighted those hidden gems that some people might miss.
My biggest motivator in life is my family. My partner Hannah and our boys Jack, Josh, and the ginger ninja Kyle are the backbone of everything I do. There is never a dull moment in the Greenwood household. It’s filled with love, laughter, music, and just a smattering of insanity.
Here are some extra little nuggets about me.
- I'm a self-proclaimed super geek who can't resist adding the latest tech gadgets to my Amazon basket.
- While I appreciate a good Jack Daniels, especially for the free glasses, nothing beats a comforting cup of hot tea in my book.
- BBQ reigns supreme in my world - that's a non-negotiable fact.
- My go-to entertainment includes reruns of Friends, The Office (US), and Bottom; I've watched them enough times to recite the scripts by heart.
- Not to brag, but I co-wrote, directed, and starred in a hit musical called Back To The Eighties that toured extensively across the UK.
- Cooking is a passion of mine, with my kitchen essentials being my array of spices and my beloved collection of Pinch of Nom cookbooks. Trust me, the recipes are a game-changer - you're truly missing out if you haven't given them a try.
So now you know a little about me and I assume you aren’t running for the hills, why not tell me a little about yourself. Head over to my contact page and let's see how we can get this party started.
