Commercial photography for brands that want to stand out
I shoot in a documentary style to help brands, sports clubs, and hospitality venues. No awkward posing or staged camera performances needed for my work.
If you’re an artisan, chef, creative, coach. I would love to tell your story.
Based in Devon, South West UK.
I typically work with:
Local businesses wanting to look more premium
Gyms and fitness brands
Cafés, restaurants, and hospitality venues
Golf clubs and sports brands
Personal brands and service providers
If your business relies on visuals to attract customers, this is for you.
A business owner doesn’t actually want photos.
They want:
more bookings
higher perceived value
better social media
stronger branding
content that sells
In order to do that you need imagery and content that provides the assets for said points made. With every business and their dog using Ai posters, they’re all starting to look the same.
The businesses that do not use Ai for their imagery will be the ones who stand out.
Who am I?
I’m Dale, a photographer from Plymouth in Devon.
I bring my passion and dedication to every project i take on.
My work blends real environments with intentional storytelling to capture imagery in a non intrusive way. No posing or copying influencers. We do it the ‘proper way’.
I’m open to collaborations with brands and creators who align with the same vision and values as me, no trend chasing or copying influencers.

“We've used Dale a few times for photos of games and social events. I honestly cannot rate him highly enough, from start to finish he's excellent, asking us exactly what we want or need from the day or just doing his own thing and capturing some fantastic moments. He's helped us massively from little changes here and there on our social media and just lending advice where needed. Dale is a absolute star, if we could have him every week we would. Keep up the great work bud.”

FAQ
-
Why do I need professional photography?
You wouldn’t show up to a pitch meeting in your pyjamas? If your website or feed is full of blurry, dark phone snaps, that’s exactly what you’re doing digitally. If you don't look like you've invested in yourself, why would a sponsor invest in you?
