Who am I?
I remember a teacher once asked me “how does music make you
feel?” My reply at the time was naive and embarrassing. I often
think how I would answer today. Music makes me feel Invigorated
and alive. Music can tug on the heart strings and induce
compassion and sympathy. It can revive memories, inspire hope
yet bring me down. The point is, music makes me feel!” My
photography is my music, my subject is you and my purpose is to
provoke feeling. My name is Stephen. I am a Father and a Son. I
am a Husband and a Brother. Our lives pass us by so quickly.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could capture a little to keep?

Professor David Bellamy OBE:
"I became an environmental campaigner over fifty years ago when I found people in Africa and India dispossessed of their traditional ways of life, starving often among the most fertile natural systems on Earth. Since then I have travelled the world seeking out role models that put people back into the equation of livelihood so protecting the environment in which their ancestors sustainably lived…
And Albert is one such model, so breathtakingly original and straight to the point. The Foundation's Projects and it's "Trading Roots" branded products represents a truly ethical model with immediate benefit to deserving people
and their environment.
Thank you for caring about the living world".

Photographer Stephen Rainer on
location in Ghana, West Africa.
Ghana was a wild ride mixed with excitement, exhaustion and emotion on all levels. Our project leader, David Murden, is a seasoned traveller and made sure the whole crew experienced Africa like an African. We worked, slept and ate side by side with the villagers of Western Africa whose hospitality was like nothing I have experienced in any other country.
The environment was hard work; keeping my equipment cool enough to function, charged and free from the fine dust which found its way into the smallest of cracks was only half the challenge. Working all day in soaring temperatures, little shade and limited water took its toll on my body too.
Everything considered, the effort was so much more than worth it. This assignment really has changed my life. I have met some truly inspiring people both during and since.
