DWK Photography

Welcome to my portfolio.

ME  I am an experienced and published photographer based in north Essex but I am able and willing to travel.  I am happy to shoot in a studio or on location, and I have my own portable three lamp studio light set up so I can do home shoots.

I am the founder of the Essex Creatives Social Group.

MY STYLE  As you will see from my portfolio - black and white is my 'thing'.  I love the tonal range, the use of shadow and light to create shape and form.  I like a slightly edgy, moody high contrast feel to my images, rather than a soft edged images - although I am happy to dabble in the latter.

The images below are principally my published work, plus others from recent shoots. The folders contain images going back several years and are not a reflection of my current work or the improvement that I have made.  You are welcome to take a look, but please be aware that there are images that are not safe for the workplace.

OUR SHOOT  Every shoot I undertake is thoroughly planned around a specific theme and I will tend to plan with a model in mind - chosen to fit the theme.  I do not just turn up and ask what are we doing.  Don't be put off by that - if you would like to work with me, get in touch and I'll see what I can come up with just for you.  Collaboration is the key to a successful shoot - and I like to discuss and include your own ideas.

CHAPERONES:  Model safety is very important to me, so if you want to bring a chaperone, that is fine - although I would ask that it is not your significant other.  They should be proficient at tea/coffee making and holding bits of photographic equipment!
