Why choose Kaye @Affinity Photography

I’ve spent 10 years photographing weddings

• This means, finding the best backgrounds, taking spectacular images of a bride & groom together and apart in all aspect of their day, finding their essence together and individual personalities and getting never to be repeated images and memories (did I mention under pressure…)

Since 2009 I’ve photographed for local councils

• This means, making sure local business branding is forefront, key projects stand out, highlighting VIPs at events, sticking to a brief & run sheet, building a rapport to get general members of the public be relaxed, have fun, and look like they’ve been modelling as a part time gig for ages

I’ve photographed debutant balls for 4 years

• This means using studio lighting setups, INSTANT rapport to pose and relax people, getting the right combinations, fun and happiness of the occassion, big families, small families. Talk about excelling under pressure.

Over 20 years capturing smiles and fun of families

• This means connecting with parents, kids, pets, and grandparents to help people feel comfortable, relaxed, laugh, joke, and showing me their personalities. My instant tips and techniques to relax people work a treat!

15 years of headshots & Branding images

• This means micro-business teams, Councillors, CEOs, executive teams, solopreneurs. And I would say 90% of everyone stated that they hate having their photos taken at the beginning and tell me that was so much better than they thought it would be and love the results!

(I’m not going into my 18years in the corporate world … that’s for

another time)

My experience means I’m super quick to get the great angles,

checking backgrounds, creating and tweaking poses to get

that hero image you’ll love!
