Warren Finlay

I’ve been a in the photography field for 9 years, beginning as a portrait photographer while pursuing my Diploma in Photography. As my true passion lies in photographing products, as well as people, I’ve the past 3 years shooting products for a well-known lifestyle company, Cielo, capturing products in their best way possible for the company to sell online and in stores helping the business to succeed. Graduating from Nelson Mandela University gave me many insights to all kinds of Photography related career options.

On a personal level, I am a people’s person and work extremely well in a team, where I contribute ideas and concepts freely, and whereby the team can count on me to execute products in fast-paced environments, and deliver the finished product on time. When it comes to photo editing, I’m highly organized and pride myself on being extremely attentive to detail, with an eye for presentation. I am highly creative when it comes to photography, with my skills, and an amazing team, we can outshine plenty of businesses. At the end of the day, there is nothing more rewarding than delivering amazing photos that you, yourself can be proud of.
