Bruce is a real professional and has been amazing with changes I requested for my client.
The client mentioned that they would like to keep him on their books for any future work as he knew what he was doing, interacted with the models and showed a level of professionalism that they have not experienced with other photographers.
Thank you Bruce, you gained 2 raving clients. Denith Engineering and ExecuStreet.

Bruce did the photography at my nephew's wedding and I would just like to say a huge thank you. You really captured the emotion, essence and every important moment. What an incredibly special album you put together. We as a family were quite blown away with what you delivered. It was beyond what we expected. More...

Very talented photographer, great with direction and attention to detail
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Position of subject in relation to light source. Lens choice and depth of field are also vital components to a great image, and then keep everything natural,
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Exactly what their requirements are, who is the audience.
If a commercial project, this would be done through a detailed brief, but weddings, portraits, a Skype or Zoom call would be ideal to get to know the couple/person so as best to understand their needs and aspirations.
What do you love most about your job?
Capturing memorable images that tell a story. In a singular frame, one needs to capture emotion, location, wardrobe, styling and significance.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Opening my own business seemed a natural progression as a film director, as we develop content and then produce it.
Why should our clients choose you?
Reliability, dependability, excellence.
The three above attributes give people peace of mind, as these events are a one off, and the importance of the image capture cannot be repeated.
