A little about Bad Apple..
01.
Bad Apple
I'm not actually a bad apple! I chose a business name that would mean I could eventually employ other photographers and operate a UK wide business. So that's the long term plan!
02.
Why Events?
Over my photography career I have enjoyed everything from photojournalism to food photography and portraiture. But I love events the most because people show up as their best selves. Everyone has a good time and its a privilege to be a part of that.

Photography
Photography drew me in after I got my first rubbish camera years ago. There is something I find exciting and purposeful about recording important moments and situations. Now this is my full-time work and my life!

More?
Although event photography is my main bread and butter, I do engage in all types of photography. I shoot for cafes and restaurants, as well as portraiture and fashion work from time to time.
Testimonials
Alex
"Bad Apple Event Photography did an amazing job at my wife’s secret birthday party. He was on time and well equipped, he blended in and took beautiful pictures all night despite the low light. Every body loves his photos. All easily available online. Cannot thank him enough for the great job that he did. I can only highly recommend him."
I'm hiring for the first time and I’m kind of nervous.
Worry not. It is my job to understand my craft and be professional. I will ask all the questions I need and organise myself around you. This means you can just focus on organising your event!
How many pictures will I receive?
I typically send 40-60 beautifully edited photographs for each hour of your booking.
Are you available outside of London?
Yes, absolutely. Although travel costs need to be considered as well as hotel costs where required.
What events do you photograph?
All and any! From birthday party's and corporate networking events, right through to live performances, coffee shops, Weddings, and more. There is very little that I can't photograph and I enjoy it all.
How long does it take to receive my photo's?
I try to have your private online gallery ready within 10 days of your event. I do offer premium options for faster delivery and you can read about them on my pricing page.
Are you insured?
Yes. I carry insurance up to the value of 1 million. This can be increased for venues that require more.
Can i request specific shots?
Absolutely! In fact, it really helps me. It makes it so much easier to get the final result that you want if you're asking for the shots that you want. But don't worry if you aren't sure of what you want. It is my job to tell the story and get all the most important moments.
How are the photos delivered?
Your images are delivered using a private online gallery. Here you can download your images and even share the gallery with friends and family.
Do you edit the photos?
Yes I do. I never outsource the editing because I have a very specific vision and want to create beautiful images from start to finish.
Is there an overtime fee?
Generally, no. If your event starts late or runs over time then I am happy to work for the pre-agreed rate. Accidents and mishaps happen. You shouldn't have to pay extra when things go awry.
How much is the deposit?
Generally I take the entire booking fee upfront. This is because I am a freelancer and this business is my lively hood.
I need to cancel, do you offer refunds?
I am happy to discuss a refund up to 21 days before your event.
How can we use the photos?
You can use the photos I provide for any purpose without limitation. The only thing I ask is that you never apply your on editing to my photos and pass it off as mine.
