David Hughes is a professionally
qualified freelance photographer with more than fifteen
years experience specialising in portraits, wedding
photography and videography.
As well as a Degree in Art History
David also holds a higher level City and Guilds
qualification in professional photography and is a part time
photography teacher.
We are based at Fairkytes Arts Centre in Hornchurch and work
within East London and Essex, although we will travel to
other locations.
Because of the activities at Fairkytes and our working
comitments, please ring before visiting us.
We have a number of qualified and experienced photographers
and videographers who work regularly for us covering
weddings and social events.
We believe that the artistic composition and creativity of
our images speak for themselves and is derived from our
photographic expertise and experience. But the clarity,
sharpness and colour fidelity of our images is a result of
professional Nikon and Canon cameras in expert hands
combined with our post processing of RAW files on our
editing suite before sending them to our laboratory.
These same high standards are applied to our videography
producing creatively shot and sympathetically edited DVDs.
We use only professional Sony and Canon widescreen video
cameras which produce colour rich and sharp video with
fantastic sound quality edited on our NLE editing suite.
Below is a summary of
our sevices.
