Something Creative for your portfolio.

Are you a fan of Creative Photography?

I really love the process of sharing ideas and experimenting to create something that is a little different, and encourage the photographers that I work with to get outside of their comfort zone from time to time and change things up. What I love even more about creative photography is that it doesn't have to be expensive and you don't need to be a pro to give it a go! (Almost sounds like a catchy slogan ;) ) Whether it's some creative studio prop trickery like in the image above, using things around the house to make funky filters or effects, creative lighting, or getting creative in the post-processing stage, it can really draw people into your portfolio when something out-of-the-ordinary catches their eye. And if it doesn't work? I don't bite! we'll try something else until we find something that makes you go "wow!" and you'll learn what not to do next time! But if you don't try it, you'll never know!

If you are looking to add some creative photography to your own portfolio, but you're not really sure where to start, then I have many mood boards available to share and collaborate on with you, or if you have a specific concept in mind, then I'm more than happy to bring that to life too! I'm a sucker for an interesting angle, tight crop and alternative perspective. Even better when I stop and think "how on earth did they do that?!" I believe that many incredible shots are created through doing something completely outside of what you are used to doing, and just having FUN! (thats what attracted you to photography, right?)

I have my own smoke machine, which I am happy to bring along (this does have different coloured lights too, but studio lighting would probably be more useful to you). 

Myself and my good photographer friend Lisa created the backdrop below using kitchen foil, which looked amazing accompanied by gel lighting!

I am inspired by the work of photographer/videographer Jordi Koalitic (who has some great easy-to-follow tutorials on youtube and instagram), and Alexandrias Lens (also on instagram) among many others. Below are some examples of the kind of images that inspire me:

I have picked locations close to me that I am familiar with. However, If you would like to shoot at a location not listed above, I am happy to travel as long as costs are covered. I have ideas to suit location and a studio, although you would probably prefer the comfort of a studio until the weather warms up again! We  are in England after all!

My rates are as follows:

2 hours: £60

3 hours: £80

4+ hours: £100 

As you will see from my portfolio, I work up to lingerie levels.

If you've got this far and decided you would like to book me for an alternative genre instead, I'm still taking bookings for other shoots too!

I look forward to hearing from you and creating some great images together!
