Industrial and Documentary Photography

I am a documentary photographer and I usually work with:

Project, training or operations managers in the industrial sectors who want to capture aspects of their work or projects.
Project managers across all sectors who need to document long-term projects for reporting and corporate archives.
Sustainability communication managers for any organisation that wants to highlight the work they are doing.
NGOs who want to raise awareness or demonstrate the impact of their work for stakeholders.

I use documentary and reportage style photography to capture, document and create visual stories about the nature of my clients’ work, progress of specific projects, the impact their work has, and what they are doing to deliver their sustainability objectives.

Whether it’s in colour or black and white, I create photo stories that my clients can use to build trust, engage, educate, and inspire audiences including employees, investors, customers, donors, local communities and regulators.

Over 25 years of visual storytelling experience

I have worked in the media industry for over 25 years helping my clients to tell their stories in a way that motivates, educates, inspires and moves people.

As a documentary photographer it is essential to work with clients collaboratively and to understand the objectives of the photography assignment. The natural style of documentary photography can’t be easily recreated as with studio photography so it is essential that we plan, prepare and work together.

I believe that documentary photography and reportage style has a quality and power that makes it an essential communication and engagement tool for every organisation.

I am the author of ‘Making Documentary Photography’ and a Business School Educator working with clients across all industries to be better story tellers and creative thinkers.

I am based in Berkshire, not far from London, and my work takes me all over the world.
