About Rob

I’m Rob, a professional photographer based in Richmond upon Thames, London, specialising in capturing the people, energy and stories behind organisations, communities and special moments.

My photography focuses on people, from students and performers to individuals, leaders, families and event attendees. I work across education, commercial and business, headshots and portraits, dance, events, children and family, fashion, sport, theatre, music and performance photography, creating authentic images that showcase who people are and what they do.

With more than 30 years’ experience behind the camera, combined with a background leading major digital platforms and transformations at organisations including Virgin and the Government Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, I bring together creativity, technical expertise and an understanding of how powerful imagery can support your goals.

Today, professional photography plays a vital role in how schools, businesses, clubs and individuals communicate. Whether it’s building a brand, showcasing a community, promoting an event, sharing achievements online or preserving important memories, I create images that are designed to be used across websites, social media, marketing materials, presentations and print.

I take the time to understand what you need before a shoot, helping plan the right approach and creating a collection of images that reflects your organisation, your people or your story. My aim is always to make the experience straightforward, relaxed and enjoyable while delivering photographs you’ll be proud to share.

I understand that being in front of the camera can feel daunting. Whether it’s a corporate headshot, family portrait, audition image or performance shoot, I create a comfortable environment where people can relax and be themselves. Using professional lighting, backdrops and direction when needed, I help everyone look and feel their best.

For performers, I create professional headshots and portfolio images designed to showcase personality, character and versatility — whether for auditions, Spotlight profiles, casting submissions, agent portfolios or promotional use. With experience photographing dancers, actors, musicians and performers, I understand the importance of capturing images that feel authentic while meeting the expectations of the creative industry.

For events and fast-moving environments, I also offer efficient workflows using professional mobile editing equipment, allowing selected images to be captured, edited and shared quickly when timing matters. I can also provide professional video content up to 4K where required, alongside a simple-to-use online gallery and print store for sharing, downloading and ordering products.

I hold Enhanced DBS clearance and am registered with the DBS Update Service, providing schools, colleges and organisations with additional reassurance that my safeguarding checks can be verified when required. I am also fully insured with Public Liability and Professional Indemnity cover.

Based in Richmond upon Thames, I work with clients across London, the UK and beyond. If you’re looking for professional photography that captures your people, your purpose and your story, I’d love to hear from you.
