I'm a fashion portrait photographer

For the last 10 years I have been obsessed with all aspects of photography. From fashion to portraiture,+ I have loved capturing photos that tell a narrative or a concept.

For last three years, I have worked independently as a freelance portrait photographer in many sectors; I collaborated with creatives such as fashion designers , dancers illustrators, graphic designers, and many more. Form this, I was able to explore the creative industry as a whole and learn from their experience in this complex field.

Living in Bristol city, the heart of creativity, I’ve found individual creatives to collaborate with and showcase my images in local exhibitions. I even joined the creative advice partnership with Paper Arts. It was called the mentoring club and it allowed artists to share their work to others to keep their ambitions and vocations alive. Through this, many networking events opened up which gave me many contacts and got me involved in opportunities around the city.

My recent experience i was a portrait photographer alongside 25 model management an agency based in Bristol which gave me access to a diversity of models.

I studied BA Honours degree in fashion & advertising photography at South Wales and graduated with a 2:1.
