Hi! I’m Isobel, a commercial and portrait photographer, image retoucher, and creative, working in Manchester, UK. It’s nice to meet you!

I’m a photographer, image retoucher, and digital artist. I’ve been learning photography for the last fifteen years and I couldn’t imagine doing anything else! It’s seen me through illness, injury, disability, and a good amount of hardship. Photography is my plank in the ocean, and I love nothing more than sharing the safety and joy I feel in my craft with other people.

I fell in love with photography in 2012 on the top of a hill in County Mayo, Ireland. I was always very creative growing up but lacked the patience to learn drawing or painting, but on this hill with a hand-me-down 35mm film camera in my hand, I felt like I was finally creating! 

But it wasn’t until a few years later I decided this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I’ve run into many bumps and challenges along the way, but every time it’s photography that’s kept me going!

Now I pride myself on creating accessible and inclusive photography in Manchester for both my clients and fellow creatives. Being a chronically ill photographer and neurodivergent it’s important for me to carry these values through everything I do and make sure I’m being a voice not just for my communities, but marginalised communities all over.
As an artist, it’s important to me to bring my artistic spirit into everything I do! There’s nothing wrong with a clean corporate look, but I’m here to offer a fun and colourful alternative for those that want to step outside of the cookie cutter and show everyone who you are!
