A member of the Photographic Society (later the Royal Photographic Society) from 1883, and one of the original members of the Professional Photographers' Association. He specialised in theatrical photography, and somtimes staged scenes from plays to be photographed at his studio. As technology improved, he photographed stage performances at theatres themselves.
