"The Tractor Twitcher"

David Laley - Agricultural Machinery Photographer and Journalist - Rotherham South Yorkshire

David travels extensively throughout the UK from his South Yorkshire base meeting people, taking photographs, organising photo shoots and writing about farm machinery of all ages and enjoys sharing his work and memories through social media.

Along with taking photographs of working machinery on farms all year round, he also covers machinery shows, ploughing matches, road runs, equipment demonstrations and vintage / classic working days too.

David is indebted to all of the operators, farmers and contractors for allowing him to photograph and write about the machinery that features on his pages.

His work, including major articles, front covers, and photo shoots feature in magazines such as Classic Tractor, Farm Machinery Journal, and Heritage Tractor. 

David also carries out P.R photography, press release writing, and testimonial work for machinery dealers such as Russells writing for their in house magazine Headlands.

His work and travels feature regularly on his Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages.

He has sold his photographs to a number of leading UK Machinery Manufacturers including JCB, Richard Western, and Agri-Weld.

David also regularly gives talks and presentations for Young Farmer's Clubs and Agricultural Societies.

For further details on individual photos and the work David carries out for magazines and clients he can be contacted at [email protected] or on 07964 494756
