I got Stuart's contact details from a friend who found him on Bark - I needed shots of my small house for Rightmove. What a great find! Stuart is charming and professional, he goes the extra mile and his images are brilliant. Thanks Stu! x More...

I booked Stuart to photograph 2 properties for advertising on Airbnb. He did a brilliant job and when the properties were redecorated, I called him back again. A really nice guy who delivers!

I've worked with Stuart on many corporate and broadcast productions. On top of being knowledgeable, extremely professional, blisteringly fast (news does that to you) and adaptable, he always delivers.
He has the knack of being able to relate to any contributor - from the nervous interviewee to the highest in the land.
An asset to any production. We need more like Stuart in this crazy fast production world we inhabit.

I've known and worked with Stuart for the past 20 years and I have nothing but praise for his work ethic, his professional and technical ability and his general approach to delivering the best possible result.
I now run a video production company based out of Singapore and have called on Stuart to film a couple of corporate sit-down interviews and associated b-roll for me in the UK (based on pretty loose briefs....) and the result was top notch. I couldn't have asked, or expected, more.
I trust Stuart implicitly and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him - I know he'll pull out all the stops to keep his client happy and meet his own very high standards

As an ex-BBC and ITV staff producer-director I have worked with Stuart many times. I have great admiration for his talents - he is one of the few genuinely multi skilled photographer/ broadcast cameramen that I know will get it right! We have long been great friends. He is fully bilingual French/ English and an awesome trooper - the man to have around. More...

Stuart was singularly responsible for raising the profile of The British Helicopter Team with an entirely series of promotional videos - leading edge and beyond anything we could’ve hoped for.
Ask him to let you see them, they are still amazing.
He’s one of the best, a consummate professional. No need to look any further.

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
There is no one secret to taking photographs but understanding the customer's brief, being flexible and adapting to any last minute changes without fuss pretty much share the top spot.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Do you have an idea of your budget? This allows me to quote realistically according to your individual needs. Having a ballpark figure to work with can save everybody a lot of time. Trust and transparency are essential in my business.
What do you love most about your job?
No two assignments are the same and the variety of customers also reflects that. I get a great deal of personal satisfaction by working closely with the customer and helping them complete their projects - on time and on budget.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I decided to start my own business because I wanted the freedom to work on a whole host of projects. Why stick to the set menu when the à la carte has so much more choice and variety? I also believe that a 1st class service can still be offered to those who's budget is a primary consideration.
Why should our clients choose you?
There is nothing better that working with someone calm and experienced. From the moment the client makes contact to delivery of the finished product, I pride myself on making the whole experience as smooth as possible.
