A leading rental company dealing in cameras and lighting for photography and video, Direct Digital had the opportunity to connect with Matt Easton, a photographer based in New York and his native London -  he specialises in editorial, fashion, and beauty. On why he uses Direct Digital when in the UK, Matt says that, “putting relationships aside, Direct are highly professional with a great knowledge of all equipment used…[and understand] the industry inside and out.”

Matt’s experience assisting masters such as Annie Leibovitz and Mert & Marcus has allowed him to discover his own signature look. He finds muses in the everyday, “a lot of [his] inspiration comes from movies,” inspirations which inform Matt’s signature sultry style balanced with “a raw and emotional innocence.”

Direct Digital is known for its range of cameras, lights, consumables, and knowledgeable, multi-faceted staff. Justin Malone, who works in the London office, also works as a freelance photographer in the UK and abroad.

Recently, Justin worked with Gilles Peterson on Look Up, fundraising for Safaplace – a charity supporting the positive mental health and wellbeing of young people. Using Direct Digital equipment, Justin took portraits at the Look Up festival fundraiser. “Space was limited so it had to be a simple set-up. I used a Canon 5D III, 50mm 1.4 and a Profoto multi-spot. Massive thanks to Direct Digital for the support!”

Direct Digital, a leading equipment hire company specialising in camera and lighting gear, has had the pleasure of working with a number of skilled and talented photographers and film-makers - one of whom is Nick Rees.

Nick is a London-based photographer and director who specialises in drinks and liquid. Working with international brands and agencies, he has developed a signature style that focuses on the subject he’s photographing, transforming the object and “making it a hero, giving it a bigger identity.”

Nick chooses Direct Digital again and again. "Aside from the dedicated staff, I know that if I ring up last minute they’ve got the capacity to make a shoot happen; it lets me worry about other things.”
