Horton-Stephens Photographers Agents
London
Horton-Stephens are London's leading photographers' agents.
"Hard to believe, but we've produced over 10,000 shoots. Safe to say, we’ve seen it all. We offer a full end-to-end production service, and we’re often brought in right at the start of a project, helping to shape ideas and approach, from day one.
Budgets, logistics, locations, casting, styling—we know how to make it all work smoothly, creatively, and without drama, on time and on budget. From lean, stripped-back stills to full-scale TVCs, we've produced just about everything. Need a last-minute location? Lightning-fast casting? A solution to something that feels impossible? Have you considered AI? That’s where we come in.
We’re just as comfortable leading a production as we are working alongside your team. When it comes to shooting stills alongside a TVC, it’s something we truly excel at. We understand how to support the wider production and make the most of shared resources to deliver standout stills campaigns."
