HELLO MOJO
What's your background?
I originally trained as a graphic designer before setting up my first photographic studio in the 1980s. My knowledge of graphic design gives me an excellent understanding of how to use space and layout and, ultimately, how to take a picture that shows off products, places and people to their best. I worked mainly in the field of editorial photography in the early years, and developed a great eye for a picture.
Please describe your work
mojoffoto is owned and run by myself. I undertake every job personally, from idea development through to digital retouching and final editing, so I can maintain control of each image, which is then delivered to schedule. Because I work solely for myself, each job gets my personal attention and my clients like my honest and practical approach to work. I am very flexible and can deliver jobs to tight deadlines if required.
What inspires you?
Good food, good design, and very good photography.
What are the price ranges?
Every job is different, so it is difficult to give a general price. I am happy to discuss your requirements and budget.
Where can we see your work?
Visit my website mojoffoto.com or give me a bell and I can arrange to come and visit you with my portfolio.
Who does your work appeal to?
My work is diverse and therefore the images I take are suited to pretty much everyone. From clients requiring commercial products and services to individuals wanting a portrait or personal image the common theme is photography of the highest quality.
Do you accept commissions and how would I go about doing that?
Yes I do - please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
