Keen amateur photographer  enjoy studio work, street photography and natural history but will photograph most genre's Limited by mobility problems.

I am the Studio Group Co-ordinator for Hemel Hempstead Photographic Society (HHPS).  My responsibilities include finding paid and unpaid models for portraiture work (we supply photos to our unpaid models in exchange for their time)   We don't do glamour work.

We normally shoot at the Salvation Army Building in Hemel Hempstead (or a local studio), typically on Thursday evenings.  We have a good range of lights and backgrounds and have received good feedback on both the quality of our work and on the friendly but professional way we deal with our models.  We treat a shoot as a collaboration between the photographer and the model.  At our shoots we have up to six photographers but only one photographer is taking photographs at any time.
