I grew up in Birmingham where I studied art and design in the late 90’s, graduating in 2004 with a BA in Visual Communication and spending my post-graduate years as a creative consultant at some of the UK’s best, caffeine-fuelled advertising agencies. Here I worked very closely with clients, getting to understand their brand and brief objectives, enabling me to create the exact concept they needed to take their business to the next level – a skill I’ve carried through to my photography today.
It was in 2012, whilst working in a creative marketing role, surrounded by high quality images and also looking to move house, which led me to question why so many homes for sale had such poor quality photos. Seizing the opportunity to become a full time professional photographer, I set out to offer local home sellers an alternative to their agents’ ‘phone snaps’. I now live in Buckinghamshire and specialise in capturing luxurious interior spaces, contemporary architecture and boutique style accommodation across the UK.
My goal is always to capture a space in its most real and beautiful state, delivering a set of images which engage with audiences across print and digital media. As well as a meticulous eye for detail, I’m also a thorough pre-planner, ensuring smooth, super-relaxed shoots every time.
CLIENTELE
Interior Design / Refurbishment
From contemporary living spaces and rustic country homes, to bright and airy office refurbishments, I will collaborate closely with you to ensure I interpret your brief perfectly, ensuring the interior spaces are photographed as they were intended to be seen. At the end of the shoot you will have a set of strong images, with which to confidently market your portfolio of work to engage with your target audience.
Architecture / Developments
I have photographed a vast range of unique residential and commercial buildings across the UK, including period renovations, contemporary new builds, luxury apartment blocks and quirky coastal developments. From capturing a building within the context of its environmental surrounding, to emphasising facades, bespoke cladding, finely crafted joinery and beautifully rendered brickwork, I will capture the architecture and its keys features in the best possible light.
Retail / Showrooms
With retail often being seasonal I can work closely with you to deliver a set of images that capture your shop displays, showrooms and individual products that you sell. From homeware and interior decor businesses, to kitchen and bathroom showrooms and shopping arcades, my attention to detail and love for innovative and creative design will ensure you receive images that will work hard for you in your marketing.
Hotels / Short Stay Accommodation
For hotels, B&B owners, short stay hosts and serviced accommodation businesses, I can work to tight schedules to ensure rooms and interior spaces are photographed on time, allowing for minimum interference to your guests. From boutique style guest rooms and luxurious bridal suites, to relaxing spa areas and complimentary inventories, I can capture what makes staying as a guest so special.
Construction / Civil Engineering
I have many years experience photographing large scale and multi-plot civil engineering and construction projects across the UK, capturing both the external and internal spaces of developments as and when they are completed. From photo documenting the initial foundations and steel frameworks, to the final external renderings and interior design fittings, I can capture the entire construction process from start to finish.
