Photography That Gives Back
Natural, on-location photography for people, businesses and communities, from personal portraits and business content to charity and local events, with a donation-led approach that puts people and community before profit.
A Relaxed, Gentle, Approach
Many people feel unsure about having their photo taken, that’s completely normal. My sessions are simple, unhurried, and informal. There’s no posing knowledge needed and no pressure to perform. We just take things naturally, at your pace and let real moments happen.
Photography for People, Businesses & Communities
Photography is provided through the Photography That Gives Back initiative. Individuals and businesses are invited to support one of the charities we work with by making a donation directly to their chosen cause, while churches, charities and community organizations receive photography completely free of charge.
-
Relaxed, natural photography for individuals, couples, families and pets, with sessions arranged around you and without the pressure of formal posing.
-
Natural, professional photography for independent businesses, from people at work and behind-the-scenes moments to interiors, products and content for websites and social media.
-
Photography supporting churches, charities, community organizations and local events, helping capture important moments and tell the stories of the people and causes behind them.
What Happens Next
For individuals and businesses, the simple steps below apply. If you represent a church, charity or community organization requesting free coverage, you can skip the donation steps and simply get in touch.
Step 1 - Get in Touch
Tell me a little about the photography you're looking for.
Step 2 - Choose a Cause
Choose one of the charities or causes supported by the initiative.
Step 3 - Make a Donation
Make a donation of an amount you're comfortable with directly to your chosen cause. I never receive or handle the money.
Step 4 - Arrange the Photography
Once the donation is confirmed, we'll arrange a convenient date and discuss what you'd like to capture.
Supported Causes
If you are arranging photography as an individual or business, you are invited to make a donation directly to one of the following supported causes. Churches, charities and community organizations requesting coverage never need to donate.
Local Church
An animal rescue charity
A local community support charity
The charities we work with are shared during booking.
How It Works
Photography That Gives Back works slightly differently from a normal photography service:
Individuals, families and pets:
Instead of paying me, you make a donation directly to one of the supported causes. Once you send confirmation, we arrange your photography and you receive your images as normal.
Businesses:
Independent businesses can access professional photography through the same initiative. Instead of paying me a photography fee, you make a donation directly to one of the supported causes. I never receive or handle the money, and your business receives professionally edited images for its agreed use.
Churches, charities and community organizations:
Photography is provided completely free of charge. No payment or donation is required, this is my way of supporting the work you do.
Every project therefore either supports a cause directly or helps a cause share its story.
Image Usage & Permissions
To help this voluntary project grow and continue supporting charities, selected images may be used on my website, portfolio, or social media.
By taking part, you’re giving permission for this type of use. If you have any concerns or preferences, just let me know, i’m always happy to respect them.
Images are never sold to third parties. Participating businesses may use the images supplied to them for their own website, social media and agreed promotional purposes.
Photography That Gives Back operates as a voluntary, donation-led initiative. I do not charge a photography fee and never personally receive or handle donations, any contributions are made directly to the supported causes. This also applies to photography provided for participating businesses.
Sessions are arranged flexibly and occasionally may need to be rescheduled due to health or unforeseen circumstances. If this ever happens, clear notice will always be given and a new date arranged.
Thank you for your understanding and for supporting a project designed to help both people and community organisations.
