where to photograph outdoors in london? nature edition
Exploring quiet corners of London for ethereal portraits. From Richmond Park to Hampstead Heath, here’s how I work with nature.
london as a backdrop
There is something honest about photographing people outdoors, in spaces they actually exist in. I often shoot on location around London, using the city not just as a backdrop, but as part of the story.
the importance of personality in a portrait
Perfection fades, personality lasts. A few thoughts on why I prioritise presence and individuality in portrait photography.
shooting in natural light
A few thoughts on why I often choose natural light over studio setups, and how it brings something real and unfiltered to a portrait.
why i keep retouching real
I retouch my images, but lightly. For me, it is never about changing someone’s face it is about honouring how they actually look. Photography should celebrate individuality, not erase it.
why portrait photography still matters
In a world of selfies and quick filters, the idea of going to a photography studio might feel old-fashioned but I still believe in the magic of a well-lit, intentional portrait. Studio photography offers space to slow down, collaborate, and make something timeless.
