For me as a photographer and now also creating video, working predominantly in Leeds and Bradford, it’s ALL about the quality of work. To create something visually dramatic, perhaps emotive alongside those key essentials to make sure the photograph or video is doing and saying the right thing for the brief. Whether it’s a corporate headshot, brand photoshoot, sports kit needing to be photographed, my attention to the important details never wavers.

My standards for quality production are as high as can be and you will only ever get photography or video that I am proud of to give to you. 

See below a mixture of the projects I have enjoyed crafting in the last few months and beyond.

I've been busy 10+ years now and the job still excites me. Let me know how I can help you?

Actor Headshots/Portraits

I had a great time creating these Actor Headshots with Phoebe last week in my garden studio. A fairly routine request for some Headshots to use to send to casting agents. We successfully created those along with a few little more creative looks I wanted to add to the session.

I'm sure there's a whole lot of disappointment when it comes to meeting an agent and the shot submitted doesn't quite fit with the person sitting on the chair. It needs to give a clear idea of who this person is, their face shape from multiple angles, showing any piercings, tattoos etc. Also to show what your hair is like, tied up and down (if you have any) along with a longer shot so they can see your body shape.

Actor portraits

A huge drive for me at the moment is to photograph people and who better than to work with actors creating real moody actor photography. Working with good actors means we can immediately get to the zone of look and feel. Really explore a character portrait and work to perfect it. For me the skill is to understand what we need to achieve from the character portrait and with the right clothing, actor performance and correct lighting and direction from myself, the results can only be good…

Painterly photography portraits

I’ve always had a love for the work of painters like Rembrandt, Vermeer and Frans Hals. I find real joy in looking at how they all worked with the limited light available - from a candle or natural window light. Looking at each piece the light subtly wraps around the subject as the surrounding backdrop fades into darkness giving such a powerful mood to every painting.

For me as a photographer creating painterly portraits has its challenges but applying a similar thought process to the portraits you can produce something not too shabby with help from modern day flash units and some post shoot processing.
