In loving memory of Robert Roland White who sadly passed away on 24th November 2015. Donations will benefit the Robert White Trust Fund.
Robert was an extraordinary individual and a self made man who lost his life to NeuroEndocrine Tumours at the age of 62.
Born to a working class family in Poole, he achieved great success and recognition around the World; but, never forgot his humble beginnings.
From an early age, he became interested in motorbikes; his interest in their engineering and design grew into an appreciation of all things beautifully manufactured: be it motorcycles, motorcars, engines, steam, watches and of course,
cameras.
Robert established 'Robert White Photographic' in 1982; which soon became an Internationally recognized company, attracting customers from far and wide; drawn to Robert's knowledge and understanding, delivered with his somewhat esoteric charm.
The success of the business afforded Robert the opportunity to pursue his other interests and he became an avid collector of the things he loved; not least of which was his collection of motorcycles.

Zoë Taylor-Bowles donated in memory of Robert

Still thinking of you.
