My natural style is an environmental one. Shooting in 'real' environments creates more technical challenges that I enjoy overcoming (be that in homes, urban spaces or in numerous 'on location' settings outdoors). Outdoors I will often introduce a strobist (remote triggered off-camera flash) element to many shoots. I love to mix natural and artificial lighting + capture the ambience of the background. East Ipswich based (Nacton Village) - Easy access to A14 and A12, only minutes away.
A member of various model-photographer sites for almost 20 years. My photographic experience goes back to my teens and has spanned film era into digital.
I have listed myself as amateur here (not semi-pro): this more clearly defines my present, rather than past status. I am seeking to arrange TF-based shoots here with suitably enthusiastic individuals. I shoot very little in a semi-pro capacity these days (I used to shoot more weddings / make-over shoots / family portraits etc) ... I am now wanting to return to easy-to-arrange, low-maintenance, non diva type shoots. I am happy to work with various body shapes and sizes too. My experience over many years has shown me that ATTITUDE and ENTHUSIASM is a more important (or at least AS important) asset. You could be the most stunning and confident and driven individual - but if you appear cold, calculating and without much of a personality ... then I am unlikely to enjoy the shoot.
I'm very hobbyist inclusive here and never exclude anyone that is just starting out. I specialise in home shoots (and have lots of experience from make-over shoots here). I love to create beautiful and sensual images from simple and accessible environments - don't think your rooms are too plain / ordinary / even cluttered (as normally I shoot with settings that blur the background so that you are what is focused on!).
Don't worry if you are new or inexperienced - working with a 'blank canvas' vs over-confident or 'fake' is far more preferable to me. Looking to spend summer & autumn+ 2021 with like-minded individuals ...
