Cardiff portraits
Professional quality images, created by a professional.
I've worn a few different photography hats over the years. I started as a newspaper photographer, shooting everything from breaking news to international sport, still lifes to golden wedding anniversaries, portraits of politicians to award ceremonies.
I photographed weddings for a while, still in my photojournalistic style.
I've done lots of commercial and corporate work for companies big and small.
I now work extensively in film and television, working for Disney, Sky, HBO, Netflix, Lucasfilm and many others, shooting on-set production stills for publicity and marketing, as well as studio work for posters. You can see a lot of this work on my other website - www.simonridgway.com
All along, the one thing I've always strived for in my work is authenticity. Even when I'm working on the set of a big budget fantasy TV show, I'm there to record what's in front of me. Documenting what's actually there has always been more interesting to me than faking stuff.
As a headshot and portrait photographer I'm still striving for that authenticity. Your headshots should represent the real you. In a world where AI can create almost anything, and retouching can fix the rest, they should be images that people can trust.
