Capturing portraits in Southwark

Across Lambeth, Lewisham, we photograph couples, individuals and small groups with gentle direction and beautiful results. We are patient with children and older sitters alike, and shape the pace of the session around whoever is in front of us. We light each face to flatter it, adjusting the setup for skin tone, glasses and features so everyone looks their best.

A quarter of a century of sessions has given us a steady, reassuring presence that puts people instantly at ease. We have made portraits for people of every age, from graduating students to grandparents, and know how to put anyone at ease.
