The Photographer
Thanks for visiting my website! I’m a self-taught photographer. My photographic journey is packed with plenty of trial, error and success. I’ve had the pleasure of shooting many professional models, but my speciality is working with ordinary people in front of the lens.
I offer a lot of guidance and give you plenty of room to find your own creativity. I would love to hear what you’re dreaming up, and I’m happy to brainstorm with you to create the best photos.
The e4photography is not a business. You can call it a part-time hobby-business because I love photography and people. Also, photography is not the only income I depend on.
Even though my rates are moderate, my standards are high, both technically and ethically. If I don’t feel I’m the right photographer for your needs, I will tell you upfront. If I promise to keep your images private, then that is precisely how it will be.
Questions are welcome if you want to know more!
Portrait Photography: Timeless & Authentic
Our portrait sessions are all about celebrating your individuality. We take the time to understand your story, your personality, and the way you want to be seen. Whether it’s a personal milestone, a professional portrait, or simply capturing your essence, we aim to create timeless images that reflect the true you.
Boudoir Photography: A Celebration of You
Boudoir photography is about more than just stunning imagery—it’s about empowering you to embrace your body, your personality, and your strength. Whether it’s for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, our boudoir sessions are designed to make you feel like the most beautiful, confident version of yourself. Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or just because, boudoir photography is an intimate, lasting way to commemorate special moments.
Maternity Photography: Celebrating Your Beautiful Journey
Pregnancy is a time of immense transformation, growth, and anticipation. We are honored to capture this beautiful chapter in your life through our maternity photography sessions. Our goal is to create timeless images that celebrate the miracle of life and the strength, beauty, and love that comes with this special time.
Whether it’s your first pregnancy or you’re expecting another bundle of joy, we’ll help you feel radiant and confident as we document the precious moments leading up to your baby’s arrival. Our maternity sessions are designed to showcase the glow of motherhood, the connection you share with your growing baby, and the excitement of the journey ahead.
Bodyscape Photography: Celebrating the Art of the Human Form
We believe that the human body is a beautiful and powerful work of art. Our bodyscape photography sessions are designed to capture the elegance, strength, and unique lines of the body, transforming it into stunning visual compositions that highlight its natural beauty.
Bodyscape photography focuses on the form and structure of the body, often using light and shadow to create dramatic, abstract images that reveal a sense of movement, grace, and depth. This style is both artistic and intimate, emphasizing the body’s curves, shapes, and textures in a way that is empowering and transformative.

Frequently Asked Questions
Style – Your imagination is the only limit in my photographic work.
Locations – I can shoot you wherever you wish! Most are done in hired studios in and around London and Essex with a professional soft lighting system and various fabric backdrops. However, there are other options. Most successful boudoir photoshoots are in private homes. At home, you are more comfortable and relaxed than anywhere else. Also, I can organize upscale hotel rooms or vacation rentals. Each option gives your shoot a unique look.
Rates – My rates are simpler than typical photographers. I do not push you to buy prints or packages, or photo books. You receive digital image files, which you may use any way you like. You can see our rates here.
Guarantee – Your satisfaction is guaranteed. If you are not completely satisfied with the images you receive after your photoshoot, I offer you re-shoot at no charge. Otherwise, I offer you a full money-back guarantee if you do not like your pictures. Terms are as follows:
- If you are not happy with your images by the end of your photoshoot, I will refund your deposit in total, and no further payment will be required.
- It would help if you can tell me that you do not like the pictures as I show them to you throughout the shoot so that I have the chance to fix the problem and offer different posing and lighting and set options.
- If you make the balance payment after the photoshoot, I take it as you are satisfied, and no refund will be issued.
Privacy – I will not use or share your images on this website or any other place on the internet unless you have given me the written consent. The photos you see on my site are of collaborations or paid models. If you want printed images, I can organize them through a trusted printer that follows GDPR provisions. Also, all your information will be handled as per the GDPR provisions.
How many wardrobe or costume changes can I make?
You can change your look as many times as you wish, but I would recommend no more than 3-4 changes in a typical two-hour photoshoot for the best results.
Do you photograph couples?
Yes, I do private photoshoots for couples.
Do you shoot videos?
No, for now.
Why do you need a deposit in advance?
I schedule only one photoshoot per day, and reserving your date requires me to make many arrangements. Also, in some cases, I need to book a studio or other space for the photoshoot. I must ask for a deposit at the time you book your appointment. If you need to reschedule and can do so at least 72 hours in advance, your deposit will be retained and applied to another date. You can make the deposits with Visa, Mastercard, PayPal or cash.
How do I get my images after the photoshoot?
After the shoot, I will sort through all the images and edit the best photos. I will send a link to the private folder to your email. This typically takes about 1-2 weeks because the detailed editing and retouching process can take up to an hour or even more per image. I will provide you with high-resolution files suitable for printing and medium-resolution, perfectly ideal for viewing on your phone or tablet, and they can easily be shared on social media or with friends by email.
Will anyone else be present at my photoshoot?
That’s up to you. If you are doing a solo photo session, you may bring one friend. Just make sure they are mature, genuinely supportive and willing to sit quietly for an hour or two while I do your photoshoot.
Will you photograph anyone who is under 18?
Absolutely not! I will not photograph anyone under 18, and I ask everyone for a photo ID before every photoshoot, even you look above 18.
How do I contact you?
The contact form is the best! Most communications will be on emails. Feel free to request my phone number if you’d like to talk directly.
Do you have a make-up artist?
If you wish to have make-up artists do your make-up for you:
- Let me know in advance so I can make sure she is available.
- Make-up can take up to 30-60 minutes, so factor that into your planning.
- Bring your make-up. She may use some of it along with her supplies.
- Wash your face well before you leave home.
- Please be bring cash to cover her time and supplies agreed.
