About me.

I enjoy working with people and creating striking imagery ranging from the beautifully creative through the edgy and sensual right to dark and atmospheric works. I do have a particular fondness for any shoots that are either quirky, off the wall or challenging in nature.

I always try to make each shoot as light hearted and easy going as possible, I believe that the best works come from collaborating together and building a strong rapport to bring out the best in the photographs captured.

My preference will always be to shoot on location. I will always consider indoor shoot in areas where the location can be used to add something to the end photo, whether that is in the ambiance the location provides or a particular challenge it presents. I will only consider studio based shoots as a last resort for shooting arena.

I regularly travel around the UK and am happy to shoot anywhere, I’m based centrally in the South West, a little outside Exeter and can easily get around Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset and Bristol for shoots, additionally, I am regularly in London, Birmingham, Belfast and Dublin.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like to arrange a location based shoot (non-studio) to expand your portfolio. I offer reasonable rates for shoots and regularly have offers on shoot packages available. I will consider TF based collaborations for specific interesting ideas or projects. Please take note of this before contacting me or adding me to work with lists.

 

Shooting with me.

Levels and styles: I will not shoot any of the following;

·        Models under the age of eighteen

·        Photoshoots with animals

·        Wedding themed photoshoots.

I am happy to shoot at any level between fashion and nude. I will also consider shooting erotic work on the understanding it is discussed beforehand and artistically driven.

I will always work on the basis that for a TF/Collaborative based photoshoots the model decides on and defines the levels of the shoot. The exception being any specific levels required for specific projects, for those I will state this in castings I put out.

 

Photoshoots and Castings: All castings and photoshoots will be offered on a TF/Collaborative basis unless I specifically put up castings offering paid shoots. I will only offer models paid shoots on the following basis;

·        I have either worked with you before on a TF/Collaborative basis or you have a very strong portfolio and the experience/references to back it up.

·        You have examples of work either on your portfolio or you are able to supply examples of your work at the level of the photoshoot being offered.

·        You have a specific look or style that I particularly need or want for a planned shoot, in this case I will contact you directly regarding the shoot.

Availability: Unless I put specific castings up I will only work on a TF basis at weekends. Weekdays are reserved for paid work only, rates available on request and I ask that these are booked at least 2 weeks in advance.

Photoshoot confirmation: All shoots are to be confirmed by phone prior to the shoot, this is an absolute must and there are no exceptions.

Cancellations/No Shows: Cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice I reserve the right not to reschedule the shoot, if the shoot is rescheduled then a deposit will be required to secure the shoot date. No shows will not be rebooked under any circumstances and a relevant reference will be left.

Weather: I will check the weather forecast the day before the shoot and make a decision as to whether the shoot should continue at the proposed location, if the shoot has to be cancelled because of the weather an alternative date will be offered.

After The Shoot: I aim to upload the photos from the shoot to a secure area on my website for you to select which edits you would like within 48 hours of the shoot (subject to location and time of the shoot). Once you have chosen the edits you want I endeavour to complete the editing within two weeks. Edited photographs will be supplied at a resolution of approximately 1000px at 72dpi along the longest edge.

Please note that I will not under any circumstances supply or release unedited photographs.
