Lifestyle & Portrait Photography
"Photography deals exquisitely with appearances, but nothing is what it appears to be. Duane Michals
At one2one Photography we like to photograph people, from new born babies to pregnancy 'baby bump' shots to individuals through to family groups and even your family pets if you want us to. Portrait photojournalism or 'Lifestyle' photography allows us to capture what we see without too much interference capturing lots of candid images without you even knowing.
So how does one2one do their portrait shoots?
Well... its not rocket science, we choose to charge you for our time to capture your photos and edit your images. You then receive every image that we capture in full-resolution on a disc and as normal with one2one the Copyright is yours. This allows you to print the images wherever and whenever you like giving you the ability to control costs. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions
Gary was one of the three original business owners of one2one who took over the running of one2one photography in the UK in 2005 after twin brothers Pete and Steve May emigrated to Canada and New Zealand respectively. Gary embraced the digital revolution early and moved from a film a digital. The choice between Canon & Nikon was tough but in the end Canon won the race and its been Canon ever since. Gary has been taking photographs for over 23 years and weddings for the last 7 years. Photography is not something that I ever thought I would make a living from and I feel very lucky that I do. When asked what I do, I say that I have a hobby that I get paid for!! How cool is that?
Nic grew up in South Africa and moved to the UK in 2004. He joined one2one in 2009 to help meet the increasing client demands for one2one as it grows here in UK. Nic's professional, artistic & relaxed approach to photography has enabled him to quickly become a professional photographer in his own right.
Russ is a trainee photographer with one2one. Russ is Gary's younger brother and has joined the one2one team to primarily pick up the clients in and around Cardiff where he lives. At the moment he often second shoots at weddings to learn the one2one way of shooting. He recently completed his first wedding on his own and is looking forward to more. Russ has great skills shooting people in all environments and he often shoots for PR Companies in night clubs in the Cardiff area.
