Work With Me

Work with me

I make honest, hands-on telescope reviews and astrophotography content — on YouTube for an audience of 290,000+ subscribers with 49 million+ views, on this site, and in BBC Sky at Night Magazine. Whether you're a brand, a journalist or someone stuck choosing a telescope, this is the page.

Brands, PR and press

I partner with astronomy and astrophotography brands on honest reviews, product testing, sponsorships and content — across YouTube, this site and BBC Sky at Night Magazine.

Current partners: Celestron, ZWO, Touptek, Unistellar, Vaonis and DwarfLab. Journalists: the quick version of who I am — credentials, features, partnerships — is on the press page.

One thing to know before you write: I only take on gear I can test properly under a real sky, and partners don't get approval over the verdict. Honest reviews are the reason the audience trusts the recommendations — that's what you're buying into.

The useful first email tells me three things: what the product is, your timeline, and what you're hoping for (review, testing, sponsorship, something else).

Viewers and readers

Questions about the book or prints, an order, or astronomy in general — same address, and I'll get to it.

If your question is "what telescope should I buy?", the honest answer is probably already written down: start with my gear picks or the buying guides, and if you're still stuck, email me with your budget and what you want to see.

When I'll reply

I read everything myself — there is no team. Partnership and press emails get a reply within two working days. General messages can take a week or two, especially during a run of clear nights, because the telescope wins.
