“Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again.”

"There is nothing in this world that does not have a decisive moment."

Henri Cartier Bresson


To capture the decisive moments – that is the very essence of event photography! It is what I aim to do. And I approach it with a unique and successful career background having been in management in Asia for more than 25 years. I have used photography in many forms to help me achieve targets. Now I put that experience to work to understand better the needs of each client and to produce the best results for them.

Originally from London, my career has been entirely with top rank firms. I started in catering and hotel management (Peninsula Group HK, China, S.Korea) where I learnt the importance of GOOD SERVICE. Next, a spell with one of the world’s leading club management groups (CCA, HK, Taipeh, Singapore) which taught me the need to build repeat business by ensuring a FRESH and INNOVATIVE approach at all times. Then a long career in Sports Management with one of the most internationally famous and highly regarded firms (IMG). There, GOALS and OBJECTIVES had to be met, with client’s BRAND and CORPORATE interests always taking pole position.

 

In 2004 I started in photography – turning a lifetime hobby into a new career opportunity. And with all my experience event photography just comes naturally. My mission: to provide my clients with the highest level of service….heavily skewed to brand and corporate exposure and meeting pre-defined goals and objectives. Jargon? Not with me, it’s what I do.

 

Henri Cartier Bresson’s decisive moment concept (see above) is the inspiration for my photography. Whatever the event or occasion, I can capture such moments for you.

"Colin understands sport. As an event organiser we need specific shots for reports, media and sponsor satisfaction. We work with detailed briefs and Colin excels in exceeding those briefs. It's all about being in the right place at the right time and being prepared. We are a demanding client, I have a feeling he thrives on that.”
