Photography - A different way forward

My name is Paul Batterbury, I am a British photographer living and working in France. I have been working past 4 years shooting a mixture of glamour and fashion photography but since leaving the UK, but I have focused more toward fashion and portfolio work and thought more about photography as an Art since living in France.

I work mainly in the area I live in (Normandy) as it perfect for the many types of image I want to produce with the models I work with. The beauty of the area and rustic locations is ideal for fashion, commercial and portfolio work, with such backdrops as country manors, Châteaux and ruined building and barns in miles of unspoilt countryside.

Taking a positive approach to work can only come from within one’s self, having an eye for detail and the scope of knowing what will make a good images and flexibility is what makes a good photographer. Quality should never be sacrificed for quantity, and good images should never be manufactured.
