Leeds Photographer, Videographer & Storyteller
Award-Winning Leeds-Based Photographer & Videographer. Bringing Your Brand’s Story to Life.
I’m passionate about capturing authentic, natural images that focus on human connection and emotional storytelling. My work on 47 / A Life With Cystic Fibrosis earned the ‘Unsung Hero’ award at the AP Awards 2020, recognizing photography’s power to inspire and create awareness.
Based between Leeds and Wakefield, I’m ideally located to provide photography and videography services across Yorkshire, including Leeds, Bradford, York, Harrogate, and Sheffield.
Family Photography
I have a passion for creating beautiful, natural images that tell a story.
As a dad of three, I understand only too well how quickly children grow up. My passion has always been to document these precious moments with high end fine art style photography.
My relaxed, documentary style family portrait photography captures those precious moments of your lives. I combine storytelling images with beautiful portraits to record memories that you and your children will cherish forever.

Commercial Photography
As a commercial photographer I shoot a wide range of photography for marketing, advertising, exhibition stands, brochures, annual reports and online. I work closely with business owners and marketing managers to ensure your photography showcases your business and services perfectly.
Editorial Photography
As as editorial photographer I work alongside picture editors, journalists, marketing managers and PR companies to provide beautiful photographs to help tell their stories. In addition I also work directly with businesses to provide commercial photography for websites, social media marketing, advertising and printed promotional material.
Portrait Photography
I love photographing people, and pride myself on my ability to build up a rapport and help the subject relax, allowing me to capture their true personality. In 2018 I published 47 / A Life With Cystic Fibrosis – A book of beautiful, intimate portraits exploring the reality of living with cystic fibrosis. In recognition of the project I won the Unsung Hero Award at the AP Awards 2020.
I’ve shot a wide range of business and corporate images including headshots for website, LinkedIn and social media profiles. In addition I’ve shot editorial portrait photography for magazines and website features as well as a series of portraits for the NHS to support their organ donation campaign. These portraits were exhibited in Leeds City Museum’s iconic Broderick Hall.
Event Photography
Whether you need photography for a corporate event, conference, networking event or an awards ceremony I can help you capture the atmosphere perfectly.
As an event photographer I work with businesses, PR companies, marketing agencies, conference organisers and charities to document their events. My informal documentary style of photography allows me to blend into your event and capture moments naturally and effectively.
Videography & Filmmaking
I have a passion for story telling. As a videographer I love to shoot films telling the story of anyone with a strong passion. Whether that be an artist, musician, or a charity devoting their time to benefit their local community. As with my photography work, I’m always drawn to projects with a strong human connection. If you’re passionate about what you do, I’d love to capture your story.

Elevate your visual content to new heights with cutting-edge drone photography and videography services. As a drone operator, I can unleash the power of aerial storytelling to showcase your brand, property, or event in a way that captivates and impresses.

My published book of portraits
At the end of 2018 I published 47 / A Life With Cystic Fibrosis – A book of beautiful, intimate portraits exploring the reality of living with cystic fibrosis. Each subject offers an insight into their attitudes to life and their condition up to and beyond the median predicted survival rate of 47. I’ve also worked on a number of other projects.
“We’ve had (and are still having) an amazing experience working with Simon. Honestly, Simon is one of those rare people who just gets it. He captured exactly what we were looking for – every shot felt natural, professional and spot on for our brand. He made the whole process super easy and even enjoyable (which isn’t always the case when you’re in front of a camera!).”
