Who books this
Cardiff Bay & the Senedd
The waterfront Innovation Centre, the Senedd building, the Wales Millennium Centre, and the Roald Dahl Plass create a distinctly contemporary civic environment suited to policy professionals, media figures, and tech entrepreneurs.
Cardiff city centre & the Arcades
The Victorian and Edwardian shopping arcades, Royal Arcade and Morgan Arcade, provide a warm and characterful backdrop unique to Cardiff — ideal for independent retailers, architects, designers, and creative consultants.
Pontcanna & Canton
Cardiff's creative and professional quarter — independent coffee shops, production companies, media studios, and riverside terraces. The natural setting for broadcasters, PR and communications professionals, and lifestyle brands.
Cardiff University campus
The Edwardian Cathays Park and the university's civic buildings create a grounded academic environment for researchers, lecturers, and education professionals building a public-facing profile.
Roath Park & Bute Park
Cardiff's major parks — Roath's boating lake and Victorian planting, Bute's riverside castle backdrop — provide natural, approachable settings for therapists, coaches, wellness practitioners, and lifestyle entrepreneurs.

Do you travel to Cardiff?
Yes — a travel supplement of £95 applies for Cardiff sessions. Cardiff is well connected by rail, and I work across South Wales and the South West regularly.
Can we shoot at the BBC Wales or media campus at Cardiff Bay?
The public areas around Cardiff Bay, the Innovation Centre, and the Roald Dahl Plass are all accessible for brand sessions. For shoots within BBC premises or private media campuses, you would arrange internal access and I work within whatever framework you have.
Is Cardiff a good location for brand photography?
Yes — Cardiff has a genuine and underused visual richness. The Victorian arcades are unlike anything in England. Cardiff Bay contrasts modern civic architecture against water. Pontcanna's tree-lined streets have an intimate warmth. The city rewards photographers who know where to look.
What's included in the strategy call?
We cover your brand position, ideal clients, platforms and formats you use most, outfit choices, and the atmosphere you want your images to project. Around 30 minutes that consistently improves what we create together.
