SECRETSTUDIO

---

I'm a passionate, versatile and creative Photographer and Videographer gaining prominence in producing great looking headshots, portraits, fashion, beauty, sport, lifestyle and editorial images and video for Actors, Models, Musicians, Dancers and Businesses. My speciality is in creating studio quality images using portable flash and a variety of backdrops and lighting styles in the studio or on location. These same approaches apply to my video work using constant light LED panels and fresnels to create the required look in video and enhanced in post production. 

I am self taught from many years of studying and practising the science and art of photography and lighting and so much testing and experimenting with ideas that I wore out my first camera whilst holding many sessions for an amazing variety of people. More recently I had the opportunity to train in person with the great Gavin Hoey and the amazing celebrity photographer Rory Lewis, adding to my knowledge and experience. Additionally I have worked on projects with the mighty Karl Taylor and the super guru that is Daniel Norton. Other influencers for me include Joe Mcnally, Lindsay Adler, Bryan Peterson, Joe Edelman. 

My Retouching and post production skills enable me to get the most out of the session shots and in addition to fixing and restoring images I finesse and polish so they are presented at their best.

Do you need new shots? Perhaps you changed your look or need to update your portfolio, don't yet have a headshot, or have an idea or concept you want to try out, whether you want to do a location shoot in the park or urban surrounding, or a studio style shoot for that professional portrait for social media or business. 

Most people don't liike having their photos taken and I aim to put people at ease right from the start to get the most out of the session but more than this, my whole philosophy and approach is to provide an experience for people to enjoy the whole process whilst creating the shots you need.
