About Us
Michael specialises in advertising, portrait & editorial photography for clients across the entertainment industry, creating bold, striking imagery that balances narrative with visual impact.
He brings precision, technical skill, creativity and a sense of the dramatic to both his commissioned and personal work: atmospheric lighting; a sense of movement; a keen eye for capturing the story of a show, film or brand.
As comfortable on location as in the studio, Michael’s background means he is skilled at helping actors bring their best performance to the stills medium, whether it’s a five minute shoot between takes on set, or a full day’s ‘modelling’.

London: Michael Wharley
London-based photographer Michael Wharley specialises in advertising, portrait and editorial work for entertainment industry clients and beyond. He creates bold, atmospheric pictures that balance narrative with visual impact, whether for film and theatre posters, editorial portraits, TV shows, magazines, book covers or advertising campaigns.
Recent highlights include shooting Alice Lowe for acclaimed horror-comedy ‘Prevenge’, an award-winning series for Connor McPherson's 'The Weir’, atmospheric portraits of ‘King of Clowns’ Chris Lynam, and the young cast of a major revival of modern rock musical ‘Spring Awakening’.

An AOP member and Fellow of the BIPP, Michael was recently awarded the 2018 BIPP 'Photographer of the Year' award.
