Male photographer, specialising in headshot photography for actors, models, performers, executives and employees, public figures, anyone with a social media presence, and basically anyone else who wants a professional quality image.
I've been a photographer all my life, but only at the end of 2022 stepped out to becoming a commercial photographer. Although currently based in North Wales, I travel across the UK, and love visiting new locations and meeting new people, creating some amazing images together, and making the process enjoyable for all!
Yes, if you have never had headshot photographs taken before (or even if you have), you may feel a little nervous or apprehensive about the experience. This is only natural, and even the most experienced professional actors and models often feel this way. We will take our time to put you at ease, and coach you on how to pose and look to find the best-looking headshot for you as an individual. My aim is to provide you with quality headshot photographs that exude confidence, approachability, and inner strength, in addition to your individual qualities and features.
Cost vs Quality?
Often, it's not a question of cost vs quality, rather it's whether I can provide you with what you are specifically looking for. As I am still fairly new to the industry (despite having over 40-years experience in photography) my costs are relatively low. Please don't let that put you off! I can provide you with top quality images that you will be proud of.
How can you see example of previous work?
Not everyone is comfortable with having their images on display on our website, so you can only see a small sample of our work. You will find a selection of headshot and portrait photography on the following sites:

Location, location, location!
All the photographs you can see on our website are taken either at:
- the person's home,
- the person's place of business,
- an AirBnB or hotel room, or
- at our own home studio in a small apartment in North Wales.
Why should you have photographs taken at your own location?
Stay in your own comfort zone! Whether at home or at your own place of work, you will be more relaxed, less anxious, and this will help ensure that you end up with images that are more natural; whilst using our professional lighting and backdrop to set up a 'pop-up studio at home' ensures that you have studio quality images. Just check out the images on our website - they were all taken in this same way. In addition, you don't have to worry about travelling, finding somewhere to park, finding the place where you are meant to go, have to adjust your clothing and hair (especially if it's windy and raining), and then get back home again afterwards. All you have to do is relax in your own environment as you get ready and wait for me to arrive! No stress!
Is there an alternative?
Some people prefer to have photographs taken at another location. We can hire a studio if you prefer to use that setting, or some people travel for their photoshoot at our home studio.
What's next for you?
Let's talk! I hope we can at least have a conversation. If you would like to get in touch, the best way is through WhatsApp on (07711) 921 927. I am often out at work (or travelling to a location), and have my phone on silent. If you leave a message on WhatsApp, I will get back to you. If I have a missed call, I will get in touch as soon as I possibly can.
Thank You for taking the time to read this, and I am sorry if it seems rather long-winded. It does give you a flavour of who I am, and my passion for making a difference through photography.
