Powerful photography and video services
Professional photography and video services including Portrait Photography, Brand photography, Corporate photography, Event photography, Fashion photoshoots, Product photography and Food photography.
Yorkshire photographer working in Leeds, Bradford, Manchester and London. I’m available to work wherever you need me to be.
As a photographer and now also a video creator, 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 or a 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 content that I am proud to give to you.
See below a mixture of the projects I have enjoyed crafting in the last few months and years. Let me know how I can help you?
Sport brand photography
An early start to the day to meet a new friend for some sports brand photography on a very cold and wet day. After and initial poor start, very cold and windy with low light I started with using a very small strobe but quickly decided against that. Just wasn’t the look I wanted to achieve I had conceived before the day. So with the weather gods behind us, we managed to shoot outside and make use of this amazing brutalist architecture, peering through gaps in the walls as India flew past. Hats off to her for being amazing and happy for me to direct the whole shoot in pretty bad conditions.
Traffic photos for The Floow
Great to be invited to photograph for The Floow creating for them a new suite of images to support their wide range of communications and new website. The range of shots included photographing team members, in and around the office, the tech used in vehicles and various road and traffic scenarios.
Running photos - Yorkshire Road Relay Championships
Great show of runners and talent at the Yorkshire Road Relay Championships 2018 at the weekend. A mixed bag of typical Yorkshire weather throughout the day and was indeed more annoying to a working photographer than the competing athletes on the track. Awesome effort from everyone who took part.
Band music photographer
A very good friend of mine has been playing/performing in a band for years. A real lover of Blues and rock and roll and was my pleasure to photograph his band practicing one winter evening. This band music photography is nothing new but I enjoy creating and this documentary style of band photography. It would be nice to do more of this kind of photography. Such fun listening to what they play as I work.
Run for all - Derby Half Marathon
Another great running event from Run for all - the Derby half marathon.
Fashion photography - Leeds, Manchester and London
I scouted for locations for this fashion photography shoot, looking for something that was plain but interesting in texture. On a relatively sunny day I found quite a few places but fell upon a lovely location - a communal outside space with raised beds full of palms and against the flats in the background with the sun shining, it almost had a California look to it (well sort of). The next day came working with Lucy and a firm idea of look and mood. I got her working the look perfectly, she’s a great newbie on the scene but sure she will do well. However sadly for us, this day was cold and rain came down within the first hour… so off to shoot inside from a window, making the most of our time together.
Product photography
As the world goes into lockdown to counter the Coronavirus it was time to look for another way to be resourceful as a photographer and still keep working. Product photography came to mind and with no previous experience but with a spare room full of studio lights I made a start. First off to photograph the bottle, then the fruit and with some Photoshop wizardry to composite them all together to hopefully create a dramatic hero shot.
I look forward to creating more product photography and food photography in the coming weeks and months. If your business needs some product photography, looking for another creative approach, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Sport brand photography
More brand sports photography on this one with Georgina. I always try to do something different wherever possible so decided on this one to shoot in a skate park. Once the rain and clouds passed by we had beautiful reflective areas to work in creating the most lovely light. Every shoot photographing sports brand work is always a fun creative day.
Urban fashion photography
A nice afternoon creating some urban fashion photography with the lovely Steffi between the seemingly never ending rain showers. We just took a stroll around Leeds, looking for pockets of interesting backdrops, lighting etc that would enhance each set of poses. All direction of Steffi (not a model) was by myself.
Skateboarding photography
As the part of a larger set of personal projects I’ve set myself for 2020 the first one on the list was to meet up with some local skateboarders. The first awesome guy I met was Denham, a freestyler with skills that astound me. On this first session I just asked him to show me what he could do and see how much I could capture. After the first session I’m very excited to see where this one is going to take me. I’ll be experimenting with digital and film to capture what we get up to.
Hockey photography
While working for the European Hockey Federation I had the privilege of meeting Janne Müller-Wieland, German field hockey captain and seeing her in action playing a semi final against the green army. It’s always impressive and amazing to see the level of fitness and skill from elite athletes, putting in perspective the high level they compete at. A really nice lady to meet and hope to photograph her again soon.
Running brand photography
It’s lovely to make new friends in the sports world and from time to time i set myself projects and invite some of those awesome people to take part. This time was in Yorkshire with a bunch of very talented runners to take some sports lifestyle type running photographs. The direction of the shoot was my own.
Huge thanks to all who took part and looking forward to the next session with those who couldn’t make it this time.
Velotec cycling kit performance photography
It’s such a pleasure to be asked to work with a client on multiple occasions. Helps to convince me what I’m doing works! Velotec asked me again to shoot at the Boardman Performance Centre to document the process of testing out their new line of speedwear. Lovely client and nice place to work on a cold December day.
Hope and homes family marathon photography
On the hottest day of the year I was asked to photograph the Hope for Homes Family marathon event in London. A real scorcher of a day and such a delight to capture the events and emotions that took place. Photographing runners of all ages.
Brand sports lifestyle photography
One very cold morning in Yorkshire, at sunrise creating some brand sports photography
Ilkley cycle race photography
Another session in the HSBC UK National Circuit Series, this time in Ilkley. Great when these events are hosted in my back garden as it were and the light was heavenly. Lots of gaps between buildings to create shafts of light for the riders to pass through.
Street photography Bradford
A chance to experiment with long exposures at a local event. Something very colourful showing the movement of people as the evening passed by.
Sport brand photographer
Lovely to receive work from local businesses, especially when its creating sports brand photography. I spent one weekend scouting out locations for the shoot, picturesque Yorkshire moorland as a backdrop then the following week photographing the cycling kit. Both cyclists I sourced I had met before, photographed at cycling races somewhere along the way. It’s a small world and nice to pick up new friends along the way to work with and work for!
Skateboarding photographer
A quick hour or so with the guys. Took the initiative as the sun was shining so why not? I’ve tried to develop the project further this time working more on the actual skating rather than telling the story of the guys. I brought my fisheye lens and just had some plain o’l fun!
Fashion photography Leeds
A quick urban fashion photography shoot while there was a break in the northern weather. Roselyn is a model in the making, always great to work with new faces and be able to direct each one with directions. I always have a clear idea of what i want from each person and the style/look i want from the shoot. As this was the first of a couple of shoots i think it went well.
