What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Imagination, insight, a grasp of the concept and thinking behind the project and above all the light and composition.
Having a sense of humour helps. I photograph a lot of people in my daily life and it's essential to make them at ease and give them the confidence to trust you with their image!
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I want to know what the client or their PR company want out of the picture, I'll then work with this to turn their idea into an image.
However I will always suggest ideas that I think will work and hope that the client allows me to try an idea because at the end of the day they don't have to use the image....most do however!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I worked as a photographer for the same agency for 25 years until the point where I was running it but it was never totally mine>
Why should our clients choose you?
I have a passion for photography and producing a good image. I like pushing the boundaries a bit to see if a 'better' picture will result! I like working and interacting with people to put them at ease and my clients say that I do this very well.
