Here you can read the most recent and hopefully interesting aspects of my commercial and advertising photography. I am a photographer based in Leeds West Yorkshire and have spent all my working career in this area, working in studio shooting a huge variety of subjects including food photography, still life, product, jewellery and people & also on location the length and breadth of the UK.
I have a very down to earth, hard working ethic towards my professional photography. Delivering the right photographic image that you need for your marketing campaign or advertisement whether it is company brochure, website or bill board poster is my goal.

If you run a business and are operating in the commercial world, then you already know how important it is the strike the right note when coordinating the look of your business to the outside world.
Deciding upon the right logo, website design, even the colours that represent your business are thought about, deliberated with colleagues and are ultimately decided upon as they best portray your business to the wider world.
You may have a local food business, and your food may use carefully selected local produce, or maybe your food business is a world food, a fiery dish from South America perhaps and the colours you use may reflect this.

To produce delicious food photographs for a food product or to display a new recipe for a cookery book, you must enlist the skills of a professional food photographer, that I imagine you already knew, but equally important, when undertaking professional photography is the role of the food stylist.
The food stylist is the key to success when photographing dishes for websites, brochures or publications of the food that you are promoting or seeking to show.
This tried and tested combination of photographic skill and food preparation knowledge is in many if not all the food shots you see in the media.
A food stylist will often have many years of hands on experience in the food industry, maybe as a chef, teacher or producer of food. This wealth of experience and knowledge goes into the mix when the food shoot is being planned and right through the shooting process.
Having carried out many food shoots over the years, one thing is certain, producing shots for cooked food dishes & producing commercial and professional photography of food items for publication is more successful with the added skills of a food stylist.
The final images will always look more polished, sleek and have more impact on the page of your website, or cookery book when this combination of skills is employed.
Take a look at an example of some recent food photography shown here, and in the food portfolio.
