Heritage
photography
I am a photographer of historic homes, museums and heritage architecture.
Period homes & interiors photography
I grew up in a home full of antiques and character, so period interiors are in my blood. Eclectic furnishings, bold colours, and historic features make these homes a true joy to photograph.
As an experienced interiors photographer, I know how to create well-composed images that highlight every aspect of a space, from colour schemes and wall coverings to lighting and soft furnishings. I primarily use natural light, but can incorporate flash if and when is necessary.
Stately home exterior photography
From grand stately homes to manor houses, I enjoy nothing more than capturing images of these fascinating places within their landscapes.
I choose the right time of day to make sure the exterior is well lit and capture well composed images that are not only beautiful but record all of the buildings details.
Creating a set of professional images can add so much value and also document these unique and irreplaceable buildings.
Stately home interiors photography
I have always had a genuine interest in historic homes and landmarks which probably started way back when I visited stately homes as a child. I love nothing more than capturing images of these fascinating places and showing off their opulence and history. When shooting interiors, I understand that great care has to be taken especially when photographing delicate items such as artworks and tapestries and my style of working always avoids using flash.

Aerial photography & video
I can create professional aerial photography and video footage of your home, architecture or landscape. I am a fully licensed and insured drone operator and can shoot and film at your location.
Aerial footage and imagery gives a completely different perspective on a property and gives an impactful and cinematic feel of the setting and scale of a building or landmark.
Landmarks & landscape photography
You may need to capture the beauty of an estate or require landscape photography for tourism or an area of natural beauty. Whatever the reason, I can create atmospheric photographs that document the drama of a scene or view. After photographing landscapes for many years, I understand you have to wait to for the right moment to capture the shot, even if that means a late evening or a very early start!
Portrait photography
As well as having a huge passion for interiors and heritage photography, I also enjoy photographing portraits. Whether it’s the person who lives in or designs a property, an artist or craftsperson in their work environment or people who bring a heritage location to life such as living history re-enactors. I can build time in for portraits during a property photography assignment or spend the whole session photographing people.
