Imago Mortis' photostream

I've been taking photographs for a few years now and have had the privilege to meet and work with some thoroughly fantastic people from models through to reenactors and bands. I aim to really take my craft to the next level and will be upgrading my digital kit around the end of the year while also adding some vintage analogue to my repertoire. I am working on putting together a home studio for future shoots, and am aiming to begin work on a big project soon that will become the basis of a book and hopefully an exhibition as well as to create a range of limited edition fine art prints.

I'm open to collaborative works that stimulate my imagination but I will only do limited TF* work from now on in order to concentrate on my forthcoming projects.

Style-wise, I have somewhat of a fetish for bold colours, stark monochrome and giving my pictures an antique feel in the style of early 20th century film and photography. I’m very much also influenced by Victorian photography and the work of people such as Allan Barnes, Ellen Rogers, Serachmet, Erlend Mørk, Stephen Kasner, Jeffery Scott, Joachim Luetke, Gottfried Helnwein, Cyril Helnwein, Chad Michael Ward, Matt Lombard, John Coulthart, Anton Corbijn, Perou, Rob Sherriden, Francis Bacon, and of course Salvador Dali.

For my personal projects (see casting) I pay TFCD + Travel as I am constantly buying new equipment, renting studios, and paying my own travel too (so my budget is very stretched) - However anyone who models for me will be able to use me as a reference for their CV’s.

If you would like to hire me for portfolio shoots or commercial projects my rates are available from my website and include a 15% discount for students (upon seeing a valid NUS card only)
