Commercial photographer London - AKL Photographic

 

Anthony Witcombe has been working as a 

portrait photographer in London

, as a commercial photographer in London and countrywide and as a still life photographer in London and the Home Counties, since the late 1970s.  A lot has changed since then, but a mistake many people make is that a great deal has not.  Light is light and a lot can be learned about composition from the old masters.  Equally, new ideas are the food and drink of progress and the blending of the new and the old has an intriguing way of producing appealing and engaging work.

The requirements for various photographic disciplines differ in some respects and are similar in others.  For example, portrait photography needs an empathy for the sitter.  A building however would not be insulted if the photographer did not speak to it.  However, they both need to be lit to create the mood required by the client and good composition is just as important in a portrait as in a still life or a landscape.

An aspect which is often missing nowadays and which Anthony, as a commercial, still life and portrait photographer, ensures is never neglected, is the finish and polish given to the images presented to his clients.  A photographic image starts with visualisation.  It then requires composition, lighting, attention to perspective, distortion and depth of field.  The exposure follows, then processing and the final image manufacture produces the finished product. Portrait, commercial and still life photography need all these technical aspects but they would be wasted without creativity and imagination.

In addition to the disciplines already mentioned Anthony works in the automotive industry, the aircraft industry and other fields.  Also, many clients are currently enjoying his recent abstract images.

As already mentioned, London and the Home Counties are Anthony’s mainstay but travelling farther afield is always welcomed as this not only broadens his client base but also his photographic perspective.

Working as a portrait photographer in London attracts the attention of corporate bodies such as financial institutions, lawyers and other companies in need of quality images of their key personnel for press releases and for their website presence.  Plying his trade as a still life photographer in London, Anthony speaks to organisations who require product photography as well as abstract and fine art images.  A commercial photographer in London will one day find himself talking to advertising agencies about their clients’ needs and another day may be photographing perfume or covering progress on a building site.

If you are looking for a professional and experiencd still life, commercial or portrait photographer in London then you needn't look any further than Anthony.
