Portraiture
Portraiture is in many ways the core of my photography business. As well as studio and location portraiture, I aim to bring a human element to many other assignments. Portraiture can be posed, staged or candid, dependent upon the situation and client’s wishes. Throughout a session, I like to chat to help convey your natural personality in the images. People say how relaxed I made them feel and how much they enjoyed the photoshoot. After the photoshoot, I process and retouch images and am happy to discuss any preferences with you. Here is a selection of my studio and location portraits, including event and street portraiture…
