Thanks for taking the time to visit photomania,

We are a portrait studio with a difference. We don't have a permanent studio. Instead we choose to bring the studio to you, bringing photography into your own home.*

Over recent years there's been an upsurge in generic high street photography which is 'ok' but not inspiring. Imagine having a makeover and a studio shoot only to walk into a friends house to find out they had the same shots done by the same photographer! At photomania we aim to give you something unique by finding out what you want first.                                                                                               

You may want a classic black and white photograph taken of yourself or for a gift to someone else. You may want a colour fashion shoot done where you can show off several looks. I often ask people 'how much do you spend on having your hair, nails and make up done' and often the reply is over £100 per month. My reply is usually 'so, if you're so willing to spend so much money now to look so good, why not have it photographed to preserve the moment forever?'

So what else do we do apart from portraits, well anything really! Although portrait work is our major thing we also do boudoir and fashion shoots, product photography, weddings and real estate photography. As well as doing the photography we can also get your images ready for web, publication or presentation in gallery; as well as creating state of the art graphic design around them.

I keep talking about the we when in fact there's just a me, My working name is Smiffy. I am a qualified photographer and graphic designer with over fifteen years experience. My philosophy is to create work which is unique and affordable but above all beautiful.
