Just occasionally one has to ask portrait sitters to stop smiling so much. Natalie Oram is lively and happy her face expresses this constantly, her voice too but then Natalie is a voiceover artist. Actually the full story is: Global Award-winning documentary-maker, voiceover artist & commercial composer Ultimately though the brief was about [...]
I'm just working through the headshot photography session taken with Stephen in the Barnfield Crescent (Exeter) headshot photography studio yesterday. It was a really enjoyable conversation as we worked, to be honest I would have happily have turned the lights off and just sat down and listened to Stephen talk, I hadn't realise that Eric [...]
Craig is an actor based in London who whilst in Exeter asked us about commissioning some new headshot photographs in between his performances at The Bike Shed Theatre. Craig's previous headshots had been taken some time ago and needed some photographs to capture his developing look, he also demonstrated a good understanding of the technical [...]
I think it's fair to say that on this day I took more headshot photographs than most others in Devon! Chloe had called a month or two earlier and asked about the possibility of me visiting the conference that her organisation was facilitating with a view to capturing great headshot photos of all of the [...]
Harold was a fabulous sitter for many reasons; he had a good idea about what he wanted to achieve but was also genuinely interested in the process and what was needed to get the shot that I was aiming to create. A student at The University of Bristol, Harold was looking for some [...]

This added convenience will be available to clients immediately though we would ask people to mention that they intend to pay by card prior to booking. Of course we [...]
Many visitors to our Exeter headshot portrait studio ask about black and white photography; a simple enough request maybe? Although some time ago I considered buying a camera that shoots black and white only, the Leica Monochrom, most digital cameras shoot colour initially. A camera sensor captures red, green and blue (RGB) channels independently and [...]
I remember thinking at the beginning of last year, when I did this for the second time, "I must make sure I have useful images for each month in the coming year." I think 'Hashtag LOL ' is appropriate. This article is by no means definitive, I'm not convinced that it's even well curated but [...]
I don't normally recommend that clients have meetings to go on to, ideally we can shoot in a relaxed environment and not feel the pressure of time. In this instance though both Mark and I had further engagements to attend. Talking with Mark during the session, rugby had been a very important part of his [...]
