Steve Emberton

From and early age I have loved taking pictures of just about anything but my true passion is photographing people. In the 70's I worked as a music press photographer. I was the staff photographer for the music paper Record Mirror. I've also worked for NME, Sounds and other magazines, newspapers, record and PR companies. I have photographed pop stars, TV personalities, politicians, actors, models, the general public and of course my family and friends. My photos have been used on album sleeves, in magazines, newspapers and on TV for over forty years in countries all around the world.

I now work mainly for pay but will consider some form of collaboration if it benefits me in some way. I'm happy to work with models regardless of their level of experience and will consider TF shoots if you have that something special. Otherwise my rates are reasonable and I will work hard to make sure you get images we can both be proud of.

DM me if you want to discuss arranging a shoot.

Rolling Stone Magazine selected one of my pictures of Sid and Nancy for their 50th Anniversary Of Rock, Fifty Greatest Portraits Issue (Sept. 2004) alongside the work of others like Richard Avedon, Anton Corbijn, Herb Ritts, David Bailey and Annie Leibovitz.

A list of just a few of the many places my work is or has been used in some way.
