I’m Neil, Exploring Architectural Beauty at Home & Worldwide
One Arm 💪🏻 One Camera 📷 One World 🌍
Hi, I’m Neil. A British photographer born in Germany, but that’s a tale for another time over a decent glass of bourbon. You’ll often find me searching for that perfect shot in this beautiful world of ours. Yes, it’s true, I only have one arm. However, I do have several cameras, although I can only hold one at a time, right?
Based in the Midlands and North Wales, I'm well-positioned to cover projects across the UK. However, as you’ll see from my portfolio, my photography has taken me to some truly incredible places around the globe. I have a passport, and I’m not afraid to use it...
A Passion For Photography
On the ground or in the air, my passion for photography has taken me to some of the most remarkable places on this earth. I have been a professional photographer for over 30 years. An eternally frustrated architect, my journey began with capturing motorsport images for printed publications, eventually leading me to photograph musicians, artists, business leaders, and politicians. All these experiences have shaped my career and brought me to where I am today. My true passion lies in capturing the buildings, environments, and structures that we, as humans, inhabit, work within, and rely on every day.
A Passion for Our World
Architectural photography, hospitality photography, and industrial photography are my primary focuses. When I’m not capturing stunning buildings and structures from the ground or the air—whether with a drone or from the side of a helicopter—you'll find my cameras and me exploring the world. Whether near or far, I have a genuine passion for discovering new places, meeting diverse people, and immersing myself in different cultures.
