Commercial photography for marketing teams, from headshots and events to full campaign shoots, delivered fast. I also work with individuals and solopreneurs who are building a personal brand.

Business & Marketing Photography

Your brand deserves a photographer with 25 years of experience shooting campaigns for businesses in the UK and abroad, from London to New York, LA, and Paris.


Fast, reliable, and easy to work with, so your team can focus on the campaign, not the shoot.


The result? Images that stop people scrolling and make them want to know more.

Event Photography

From boardroom meetings to conferences, awards ceremonies, and team days, I cover the moments that matter as they happen.


I shoot with your brand in mind, so every image represents your company in the best possible way, delivered fast so you can share them while the moment's still fresh.


Because the best proof your event mattered is a photo people actually want to share.

Personal Branding Photography

Great personal brand images look like they belong in Vogue, not a stock photo library.


With a background in fashion and advertising photography, I'll bring out the best in you, in the studio or on location, even if you've never felt comfortable in front of a camera.


Future-focused images, built around who you're growing into and the market you're going after.

“Not being one to enjoy having my photo taken, I’d been putting the session off for a while! I needn’t have worried! Marcus made the session really enjoyable, it was relaxed and informal, his advice on the outfits was invaluable and we were laughing most of the way through! I couldn’t be happier with the finished results! Thanks Marcus.”

Why work with me

Every brief is different, whether it’s a campaign, an event or a personal brand. The photos should show your business and your people in a way no one else could copy. I direct people so they look relaxed and natural, not stiff and posed.

Your website and social media are often the first impression a client gets, so the photos need to hold their own there. I bring 25 years of commercial work to every shoot, and I co-host The Commercial Photographer podcast with Sam Hollis. My book, Seeing. Doing. Thinking - the idea-led photographer, comes out of the same thinking.

Are you a photographer?


Workshops, one-to-one coaching, and Flash Fundamentals, my free lighting series, to help you shoot with more confidence.
