photofoyer

welcome !!

latest update:
 I finally decided that I will start the process of changing my career path and base on that I decided to limit my photography activity to around 8-12 session per year and I also decided to have a spending cap per hour for modeling fee, which will be up to £40 per hour, from January 2024 until March 2025.
From November 2023 my avaiability as photograper is very limited due to new football manager position within local team (West Midlands Ladies Regional Football League).
I am still happy to collaborate with new people around UK and Europe, that would like to have the start-up photos, and based on that I am happy to help as much as I can :)

about me:

  I am photographer from West Midlands and art/photography is my personal escape room from the engineering career. I love classic portrait, implied art nude, macro, landscape and travel photography and my main portfolios are on 500px and viewbug.
Instagram: @photofoyer and @photofyer_travel 

  I am exploring portrait photography that is following the "IKI" philosophy of art and life, where the lighting with surrounding are flowing and human body and facial expression are generating new visual and emotional personal canvas.

  My goal is to develop/create unique portrait style where the body image is beautiful and real. I have some favorite artist, short list below, and I admire they work and style: Martin Kuhn, Jessica Dorssin, Irene Rudnyk, Peter Coulson, Sebastiao Salgado.

Active member of the England Footbal Association (www.thefa.com) and The Societies of Photographers (www.thesocieties.net)

 

working with me:

  At the moment in time I prefer to work for trade. I am happy to work with everyone that is passionate about modeling or photography like me and respectful person as well. I love very organic retouching of the photos (a bit less than fashion market trend). My postprocessing workbench based on: ON1 Photo Raw and PortraitPro.

  I love to work in any light condition (studio, home and location settings) as long as we can create the best possible outcome from the choosen topic and surrounding. I am using my LED lighting sytsem: 3 LED panels, 1 led  strip, 1 LED studio lamp. My standard option is to share all photos (jpg@2000px) via web-link and process 4-8 photos from the session.
  If you would like to collaborate with me, because my style will bring something authentic and special into your portfolio, please let me know that and I would be happy to organise the shooting with you.

  I have the valid DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check for the FA (the English Football Association), because I work alongside some local grass-roots football teams.
