Born in London's East End to West Indian parents, Wayne's passion for photography started almost 20 years ago. Capturing everyday life events as they happen, and at every opportunity, he is intrigued by the freedom photography brings as a creative outlet.
In 2017 Wayne's work received accolade from the prestigious Sony World Photography Awards, where he received commendation in the category 'Street Photography' for his image 'The Café'. Building on this success Wayne subsequently went on to appear on Sky Arts, 'Master of Photography Season Three' (2018), which was aired across five European countries. Wayne has worked with Don Travis, founder of Future Hackney, since 2019, co-producing four open air exhibitions in 2020, 2021 and 2022 entitled 'Ridley Road Stories I & II', 'Gillette Square Stories', and 'Protest Stories'.
