If you’ve ever tried photographing someone hanging upside down from a hoop, balancing on a pole, throwing themselves through the air or attempting something that looks like it should probably require a health and safety meeting beforehand, you’ll know that timing is everything.

 

II understand that you don’t always have the luxury of holding a difficult position for ten minutes while I fiddle with my camera settings. I work quickly and efficiently, making sure we’re ready to capture the moment when it happens.

 

We can keep things clean and professional, or get creative with lighting, movement and composition to produce something a little more dramatic.

 

And yes, sometimes things don’t quite go to plan. A strap moves, a costume doesn’t quite cooperate, or something makes an unexpected appearance that definitely wasn’t part of the brief. Don’t panic, I’m pretty experienced at tidying those little accidents up in the edit. 

 

Most importantly, I want you to come away with photographs that make you think, “Bloody hell, I look good!” while showing the strength, dedication and skill that went into getting you there.
