Represented by JSR Amy Currell London

Photographer and director Amy Currell was born in East London, where she lives and works. Her still life photography and moving image is shot through a distinctively female lens, and each frame is composed with thoughtfulness and grace – artfully juxtaposing colour and texture, shape and shadow.

Expanding in her role as a director, Amy works with the newest motion control cameras to give any moving image elements of the work an edge, giving the same poise and polish to her film that you’ll find in her photography. Her shoot production is seamless and highly technical, meaning the studio can adapt quickly to an evolving industry, and also turn out a range of deliverables in a single day – never compromising on aesthetic or detail.

Amy works with clients who value beauty, and the context of their products in carefully choreographed composition, and these have included.

Amy is represented by JSR, see her work here and follow the agency on Instagram for the latest projects.

Chris Howlett Photography London

"After working under restrictions and Covid protocols for the last few years, shooting in person in our London studio with a full team feels like a pleasure and a privilege.

Welcoming our diverse client base back into the studio is a delight; and new beauty start-up brand JMG and wellness brand Aguulp are just a few. We also continue to service our well-established jewellery and cosmetic brands.

We have lots of still life, food & drink, models and locations all in the pipeline for 2022 so we’re optimistic - whilst remaining vigilant - but mostly we're excited for the year ahead.

Get in contact to book your next  product photography project."
