Many thanks to the hugely talented Richard Adams for my new headshots.
I prefer being out of the spotlight but after connecting through work and discussing lots of ideas, when Richard picked up the camera, I jumped at the chance!
As well as creating professional portraits, his Studio 9 Workshop Images is where you can really let your imagination run away, from wildlife to science fiction and everything in between.
As well as hosting shoots, Richard loves teaching and helping other photographers get the most out of their passion.
And despite all his talents, I'm assured there was no Photo Shop involved - thanks a million Richard!
