Editorial & Public Relations Photography

If you’re an editor looking to cover a story or feature, or a PR needing event coverage for online exposure, regional, national or trade press, I’m here to help.

Corporate communications images and simple headshots can all be used in an editorial context, but sometimes you need something specifically shot for publication in trade or national press.

From a single image for a press release to a more documentary style image set, I have the creative and technical skills to make it happen.

What publications need are attention-grabbing photos, taken with page design in mind. They must be accurately captioned, delivered in the correct format and ahead of the deadline.

Not all photographers understand the interplay between words, pictures and layout on a page (even if it’s a web-based publication), but my training and experience mean editorial is in my blood.

I mainly cover Bristol, Bath, Somerset and Wiltshire, but I’m often commissioned further afield by clients who know and trust my work.
