Sophocles is the most talented and pleasant photographer I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
I was a bit nervous about having my photos taken, and I’m socially awkward at the best of times, but Sophocles’ approach to the work and his interpersonal style put me completely at ease, and I’m very happy with the photos I received.
10/10 would recommend.

Worth every penny - Sophocles is a master in his craft. I had the pleasure of working with him within a gym setting for my personal training brand. Wouldn’t hesitate recommending him! More...

Sophacles is excellent at making you feel fully at ease (even if you hate having your photo taken) to create natural photos that bring out the best. I would definitely recommend him for both family and more formal work style photos. More...

Sophocles is a total professional and really listens to what your vision is and what you are trying to achieve. He is open, friendly and puts people at ease, which is really important when working with school children.
He has a wealth of experience, which instils confidence that he will produce the goods - and he did! I would highly recommend working with Sophocles.

Sophocles is an incredibly innovative photographer. He effortlessly creates beautiful forever images.. I love my family portraits / those of my dogs and my personal portraits! He makes you feel instantly at ease, thinking out of the box. The images are framed to your choice and always to the highest specification! It’s important to Sophocles that YOU are happy with the finished work of art! He truly goes that extra mile! I can not recommend highly enough! More...

My photo shoot with Soph was fabulous, I wanted a set of fun photos that showed my personality and silliness to use for my company branding. Soph really made me feel at ease & got the most out of me. He was warm and creative. The set of photos were way better than I could have imagined and I have had so much use out of them, and still loads left to dip into 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️ More...

What a portrait that’s way outside of the boring and traditional frame. They you defiantly need to hook up and book up with Sophocles. The man is just brilliant.

I can thoroughly recommend Sophocles to anyone who is considering updating their portfolio photographs. His award winning take does make a considerable difference to what others in his profession can achieve.

Sophocles created the setting for a shoot we 1) enjoyed 2) delivered the pictures we want along the creative lines we desired. I would recommend Sophocles for relaxed creative and intimate pictures in the style you prefer. He is expensive but then you are creating live times of memories for your loved ones. More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Lighting & knowledge, conceptualisation. No guesswork. Understanding the brief.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Are you looking for the cheapest person. Is a good working relationship important to you. How likely are you to respond to my messages. I find good manners to be important in life, someone who acknowledges my response to their enquiry tells me a lot about them.
What do you love most about your job?
I am defined by my work. Real photographers never retire.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Its been 28 years! As a photographer you want to control how you work, and the style you pursue... you can only do this by having your own business.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am not 'here today gone tomorrow ' , you cannot be in the business this long if you dont know what you are doing... I will not be ' practising' on you! I am one of the highest professionally qualified photographers in the UK (you can google and verify this of course) and I have won many awards. I believe in service and not cutting corners.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
No online services apart from links to finished files for jobs.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Probably the same as everyone else. Be vigilant and considerate.
