About

i studied both fashion photography and wardrobe styling, at the infamous london college of fashion.


in 2007 i made the decision to turn my passion for photography into my profession.


i was inspired by offers from models wanting to work with me on a test basis, and a number of corporate clients willing to pay me for my photography services.

i assisted numerous professional photographers, working on commissions for magazines, corporate clients and other industry related clients.

i realised from assisting other professional photographers that earning an income as a photographer is not always easy.

with this in mind i decided to invest my own money into setting up a studio that would be available for hire at an affordable price.

having a studio, would allow me the option to hire it out to clients, thus earning me an alternative income when not working as a photographer.

i rented a warehouse premises in a local business centre, and established adrian pini studios.
