FOOD & DRINK
Be it beer, wine, spirits, coffee or softs, drinks are my forte. From the dynamic movements you can capture, to the passionate people behind the brands, and not forgetting the beautiful bottles, drinks and glassware, I find it all very engaging.
I find food to be just as exciting; the vibrant textures, the varied colours, the great personalities. As a passionate foodie myself I am very aware of what looks good and how to really show off a dish or a restaurant in the best way possible.
Whether you simply need a photographer, or are looking for someone to help you manage the development of a full suite of assets including models, props and a studio space - I can help you create exactly what you have in mind.
Below you will find a collection of my work, but if you have a project coming up please don’t hesitate to get in touch and we can discuss your specific needs.

EVENTS
Having worked for some of the world’s biggest spirits brands over the past 10 years I understand the importance of capturing an event in all its glory. After months of planning an event, the way it is brought to life on camera can make or break its success.
In recent years I have worked for Pernod-Ricard where I managed their Brand Engagement And Advocacy team, here I was involved in developing advocacy strategies and executing events across their portfolio - part of this would involve working closely with photographers and videographers to take full advantage of the investment that had gone into securing the space. Think live broadcasts, branded cocktail videos, and product photography.
Prior to this I spent 4 years bringing Monkey Shoulder to life on camera, where I cut my teeth in the world of product and event photography. Monkey Shoulder was a great space to push boundaries and be creative, an approach I still like to apply to my work today.
Below you will find a collection of my work, but if you have an event coming up get in touch and we can discuss exactly how I can help maximise its exposure.

WEDDINGS
I absolutely love shooting weddings - the beautiful places, the amazing outfits, the laughter and everyone in the room on their A-game.
Consider my style as more documentary and less posed. I like to blend into the crowd and help you feel relaxed rather than obscuring key moments from your guests. I want you to look back at the photos and feel like a guest by capturing the moments in your day that you may have missed.
I am keen to be flexible and adapt to your specific needs. I can make your family line-ups last as long or as short as you like so you don’t have to be away from the action a minute longer than you want, and you won’t find me running off after the first dance - I’ll happily stay to capture those priceless moments on dance floor.
Capturing the special moments that you can relive for years to come is a real honour. If you have your big day coming up please get in touch, and we can discuss all the finer details.

ABOUT
I absolutely love working with passionate brand managers, inspiring venue owners and wonderful wedding couples. Be it an amazing drink, a tasty treat or a great moment at an event I love capturing these images and seeing the joy they can deliver.
Outside of photography you can consider me your one stop shop for all your digital content needs. If you need a video of your event, a set of reels for a new product or even if you just have the seed of an idea which you’d like developed, I can build out a full content shoot and deliver you a suite of assets. From finding the location, booking models or buying props you can hand it all over and together we can create something stand out.
I bring with me 10 years of experience working for brands across the spirits & hospitality industry, I’ve spent years briefing photographers and organising video shoot so I understand what is important to a brand and I also have the insight to know what will cut through the noise and make an impact online.
Get in touch and we can discuss your project/event in more detail.
