Event & Portrait Photographer Chester & North Wales

Natural, candid photography for events, portraits & businesses

Chester and North Wales -based photographer specialising in events, portraits, and celebrations. Candid, natural, and relaxed — I capture the energy, atmosphere and the people, not just the moments.

Hi, I'm Joseph — a Chester and North Wales -based photographer with a passion for capturing people at their most natural. Whether it's a community event, a family milestone, a business headshot, or a wedding, I bring a calm, documentary approach that helps everyone relax and just be themselves.

I've spent 25 years working as a Creative Director in TV and entertainment, and I hold a Master's in Photography from the University of Salford. These days I combine that experience with my work teaching photography at Wrexham University — and every shoot benefits from all of it.

I'm currently offering introductory rates as I grow my client base, so there's never been a better time to get in touch.
