The People Photographer

“I’ve worked with Barbara for a few years now and she’s always been incredibly professional and great to work with – she’s our go-to for any Bath and Bristol campaign, from shooting cocktails and graffiti for our consumer clients to professional headshots for our more corporate clients. She will always add a touch of creativity to every campaign and her photography style is simply amazing!”

"Barbara’s images capture the spirit and engagements of our events. She ensures all the detail of the day is documented and her photographs bring to life the magic of the meetings. I find her easy to talk to and am impressed by her care and dedication to getting the brief right."

"Barbara is my go-to photographer because, no matter what the subject matter, she will always get the best shots. She’s quick and efficient, a great people person – which is especially helpful when photographing people – and hugely experienced, so you can trust her to deliver what you need with just a minimal brief. I’ve worked with her many times over the years, mostly when I have needed standout press photography. There is nothing that Barbara doesn’t know about creating great shots that the media will love."

"It’s always a pleasure to work with Barbara. Whatever we throw at her, she always knows exactly what to do to achieve a great photo and greets us with endless enthusiasm. Barbara has photographed everything from sporting events to fundraising dress-down days and Gromit Unleashed, our Bristol-based sculpture trail, for us, and she’s proven time and time again to be efficient, quick and understanding. Chloe Smith, The Grand Appeal Honestly, I always feel in safe hands when working with you - even when it's running about Bristol in the summer heat trying to take photos of the public with our sculptures! "

"Barbara, you’ve been a dream to work with. I loved your chilled, fun attitude, which really put me at ease. To get into rapport so quickly is a real gift. And the photos are fabulous – so many to choose from! I’ve already recommended you to other people. Thanks so much."

“Barbara has been the Trust’s go-to photographer for a number of years now. Not only is she an amazing photographer, but she’s a real people-person as well. She always puts our residents at ease and is sensitive to the demands of photographing within a health care setting. Her compassion and kindness towards the people she photographs shines through in every image.”

"Babs took some portraits of me at home and made me feel so comfortable and at ease. The photos have been invaluable - I use them for my author photo in books, as well as for promotional work in magazines and newspapers. She’s the best photographer I’ve ever worked with."

"If you are nervous about having photos taken, I can’t recommend Barbara highly enough. She immediately put me at my ease and we chatted comfortably throughout the session, with no awkwardness at all. She guided me through the process very gently and I was surprised at how quickly I felt relaxed. This came through in the lovely, natural looking photos that I am going to be proud to use."

"Barbara is an absolute joy to work with. She goes above and beyond and delivers outstanding service every single time. Aside from her professionalism and reliability, which are faultless, I really value Barbara’s creativity. She will always challenge a brief, in the nicest possible way, in order to generate the best results. Her interpersonal skills are definitely a big part of her success. She can put even the most reluctant subject at ease and will inevitably end a shoot having made several new friends!"

"I asked Barbara to work with us in 2016/17, on our quite unique project to renovate a river barge. Barbara said she hadn’t worked with anything quite like Sabrina before. With relatively little brief from us, as we didn’t really know what photographs we wanted, Barbara did an amazing job of showing the “rough diamond” of our old cargo vessel. She really captured the beauty and interest of the barge in dock and the restoration work. Those images still give me an emotional feeling and such a sense of pride. We were so pleased with the photographs, the first event in the newly created space (in the barge) was an exhibition of some of the wonderful images. We have gone back to Barbara again since, and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone with an unusual project to capture!"

"Working with Barbara is a breeze, she is able to take a brief, understand and disseminate with ease. Her down to earth nature means she has no trouble directing photo subjects or taking a step back dependent upon what the situation requires."

"Barbara arrived at the shooting location on time and quickly planned the photoshoot with professionalism and humour and that is in spite of my sometimes misbehaving puppy! She shot fantastic pictures of my puppy and I and we have had so many positive and brilliant feedback from friends, family and colleagues for the top quality photographs. Thanks so much Barbara!"
