My Approach

My approach to this job was two fold; to ensure that everyone who was in front of my camera was comfortable and relaxed while also delivering a creative output with the images.

As with any job I utilise off camera flash to put me 100% in control of the lighting conditions. This means I can take any area and create the exact light I want.

Take this corner wall in the office for instance, utilising this deep blue with a one (and then two) light set up allowed us to create some really dynamic results within such a small space in the office.

Working across both floors of the building we found multiple shooting spaces to give I high degree of variation, interest and style without shooting in the same space over and over.

“Couldn’t recommend Chris more highly”

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Couldn’t recommend Chris more highly. Extremely talented, easy to work with and put everyone at ease.

He took the time to understand what we needed, provided guidance and we’ve ended up with photos above our expectations. His use of lighting is particularly stand out.

He was also really fast at turning the photos around and we had over 500 photos within a week of the shoot. He’s now going to be our go-to for any photography and videography.
