About

I’m a father to a wonderful 10-year-old daughter who continuously inspires me to stay creative and present in the moment. I have a passion for running and exploring the outdoors, especially through hill walking and my dream is to one day walk the Camino de Santiago. Whenever possible, I also contribute my photography skills on a voluntary basis to support local charities.

I’ve been a commercial architecture and corporate portrait photographer for 24 years, in London and Reigate, Surrey. Shooting locally, across the UK and around the world.

In that time I’ve been lucky enough to work with all sorts of amazing people, from chief executives and sports stars to nurses and newborns, with the odd celebrity chef and prime minister thrown in for good measure.

My work spans everything from corporate marketing to magazine editorials, with specialities in commercial, portrait, location, architectural, healthcare. I’ve earned the trust of a mix of regular clients, including governmental departments, big multinationals, public bodies and local independent businesses.

I’m published in the Guardian, Financial Times and the BBC website to name a few. 

Working alone or with art directors and designers, in the studio or in demanding environments, my approach is all about putting people at ease to capture the dynamic, creative brand shots you need with minimal fuss and equipment. I look forward to working with you on your next project.

I’m always eager to chat and explore new ideas. Whether you need a creative collaborator, consistent, high-quality photography, or just want to brainstorm, I’m here to help.

Pre-Shoot, On Location, Post Production, Delivery and Storage

Workflow

Photoshoots are conducted either on location or in a rented studio space, with all necessary equipment provided. This includes setting up a mobile studio complete with a plain background and battery-powered lighting, eliminating the need for cables. Additional or specialised lighting is rented as needed for more complex shoots.

Post-production services, including retouching and optimization, are part of the package. Clients also receive access to a dedicated online area for image proofing and secure storage of their assets.

This client area is accessible via a secure desktop website or a dedicated mobile app, making it easy to quickly share images on social media.
