Yorkshire photographer working in Leeds, Bradford, Manchester and London. Available to work wherever you need me to be.
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?
Musician portrait
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.
When creating Actor Headshots there are some fundamentals regarding the photography. First one of course, the photograph must look like you the actor. 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.
Classical music photography
As a photographer, you can have a good range of subjects to photograph from one day to the next. In and amongst there are jobs that are a delight to be part of and create. My latest work with Airedale Symphony Orchestra is such a pleasure to make photography and coming soon, some video work. My love for classical music has been with me all my life and being around at practice time with these lovely bunch of people is an amazing experience and place to work. I tend to hunt for images, finding those special moments within the space. I can be in the far corner of the room capturing the whole atmosphere of the place or shuffling on my bottom to get a close up of someone really playing and feeling the music. The sound from the orchestra at this distance you feel in your chest. It's so powerful. I have to admit at times, I just sat and listened.
I'm looking forward to finishing up with the photography part of the project to then move onto creating a promo video, to help show the essence of the orchestra and what they do. For anyone who loves classical music in and around Bradford, see them at their next concert. You wont be dissapointed.
Band gig photography Leeds
I love my music, always have, and to photograph at a gig is pretty much a pleasure doing so... as long as it's not a Rick Astley gig that is. Sorry Rick! :)
Along with a backstage video shoot, I photographed Danny while he performed at his first large venue gig. He wanted some video and photography for upcoming tracks and promos he's going to release and it was great to speak with him and understand his new path as a pro musician. To help him create the right tone for the photography and video, aligning with his vision and brand.
It doesn't matter to me if you are a thrash metal band or a dance dj. I can come up with creative imagery to suit the mood. I look at every project with new eyes, seeing what each client requires then work sympathetically ensuring the work fits its purpose. Its experience I guess, being able to assess what a client wants and being able to just get on and get the job done. But that's what people pay me to do and do it well.
Let me know if you are a musician, band or artist of any kind and require some photography or video that tells your story. It always begins with a call and bash out ideas to find out what you want. I then put my thinking cap on and add to your ideas to create something that you are then proud to post on socials or as a video on Youtube.

Grime photography - Leeds
Grime photography stands out for me, the music and the artists who create. It has a relative short history alongside other music types but in its short time a real defined feel to everything about it, to the music of course but also those who produce it. How they look, behave and the culture of the scene. My aim initially is to photograph the local grime artists in Leeds and maybe document the places they produce their work including shooting the head to head battles. From there who knows, London is where it all started so maybe my work will take me there too.
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.
