WHAT I DO

I'm a portrait and lifestyle photographer based in London, working on commercial, corporate and editorial assignments. My clients include leading brands, creative and communications agencies, corporates, magazines and entrepreneurs.

You'll find me as much as at ease on set or in a boardroom as the streets of Mumbai. I shoot diverse subject matter in a consistent style.

I'm most interested in people and their stories: I'm fascinated by the things they do and what their experience of life makes them feel. I'm always trying to find beauty and meaning amidst the clutter around us and ultimately trying to make narrative sense of our world.

HOW I WORK

While shooting I’m as comfortable giving or receiving direction as I am disappearing in plain sight for reportage work. I love using natural light as much as I enjoy carefully lighting a scene. I spend a lot of time and energy thinking and preparing, though I’m used to working very quickly so as to not miss even the most fleeting emotion. 

I also work hard to maintain an efficient workflow - right from planning a project to preparing images for use in print or online. I’m a problem-solver by nature - I work hard to resolve issues and do what I say I will.

For more complex shoots such as for advertising, I have access to leading agents for expert budgeting and production support.

Involve me at the idea stage: you'll find me to be a communicative, resourceful and reliable creative partner, who will deliver you images that are vibrant, crisp and contemporary; yet informal and approachable, with a consistent palette.
