About me

Thanks for visiting. I'm based in Southend-on-Sea, just outside London. My studio is at 12 Nelson Street, SS1 1EF – a 2-minute walk from Southend Central train station (about 45-50 minutes from Fenchurch Street).

I’ve been a professional photographer for more than a decade. In that time I’ve worked with some of the biggest tech companies, financial institutions and legal firms in the country, along with some of the smallest third-sector organisations. It doesn’t matter who’s in front of the lens; a successful portrait is all about finding and capturing an honest connection. That’s my job, and I absolutely love it.

My first experience with professional headshots and it was awesome! Hosted in a cozy and bright studio, Simon is playful and fun to work with. He will help you to break the ice with the camera and take every opportunity he is given to make sure he gets the perfect shot. Although it is a 2-hour session, it flies by as it gets more and more creative. Highly recommend, and the results speak for themselves.”

I had a great session! He’s lovely to work with and I am very satisfied with the outcome!”

“Had an amazing headshot session with Si! He made me feel extremely comfortable and we worked together well to get the best results possible. Didn’t feel rushed in the session, and the pictures themselves are incredible and I love them! 10/10 would recommend to any actor looking for new headshots!!”
