Rob has been photographing food and drink for over 15 years, during which time he has established a wide variety of design, advertising and editorial clients. His studio has been fully digital since 2002, this provides a fully comprehensive creative re-touching and proofing service.
During this time Rob has developed a distinctive approach to food photography, which is highlighted by clean, simple and uncluttered images. Food images for Rob are heavily influenced by the colours, forms, and textures found in nature. He is equally comfortable working to a very controlled brief, or being asked to develop concepts and come up with creative solutions.
Food has always played a major part in both his work and domestic life, and indeed Rob originally trained as a chef, and can still be relied upon to rustle up a feast! His early photographic years were spent in Sydney, where he worked as an assistant photographer learning his trade. The rest of his food photography career has been spent in London.
When not taking photographs of food Rob likes to play sport, watch sport, eat, drink and spend time with his family and friends.
