Hi and thanks for dipping into my portfolio.

I am an experienced and published hobbyist photographer in many styles including travelogue, landscape, macro, and low light and astro-photography; while I do shoot some straightforward fashion and beauty pictures my portrait and model photography is becoming more biased towards narrative and composite styles and ideas. If you want to see more of my work please check out my insta - alaninyork or my website https://award2392.myportfolio.com.

Some of my recent published images over the last couple of years are in the album 'publications' .  These include Swanky, (wedding edition), Proficient (front cover), Makeda, iMirage, Style Cruz and others.

I am very happy to be approached by anyone (mua, togs, designers or models) for shoots, - collabs or paid models- especially if the approach comes with a possible theme. However I usually have a backlog of planned projects as I don’t just shoot with models. So please don’t be offended if there is a long lead time or if I can’t work with you because your look/idea doesn’t quite fit with my strengths/priorities. It doesn’t mean your work/idea is bad it’s just means I don’t want to over promise :(

I have a small studio area at home with a wide range of lighting and studio equipment including strobes and continuous lights, a wide range of modifiers, backdrops, props, projectors, light painting tools and a smoke machine. Many of my portfolio studio shots (aside from dance) were shot in this studio and I also often use flash on location.  I also have several other rooms available for great natural light shooting and we are close to good external shooting locations. I love editing and I am happy to work in a range of styles from minimal, light re-touching through to full blown image composites. 

I can travel and be fairly flexible on the timing and location of shoots weekdays as well as weekends. I have loads of ideas (probably too many) but love to work with other people's ideas too. I like to pre-plan shoots and share a mood board beforehand. 

I have only two objectives at every shoot - to produce first class images and to have fun. If you work with me I can guarantee

- Involvement - I always have a collaborative workstyle and am genuinely interested in others' views as I think that makes for a better result

- Reliability - I respond to emails and I turn up on time and prepared.

- A good time - I take my photography seriously but its not life or death - its my hobby.

- Professional and often innovative images

I think these guarantees are borne out by my references and portfolio.

Hope to be meeting you soon for a shoot.
