About me

I am a student at Oxford who is passionate about photography. It is a hobby I spend a great deal of time practicing. I study a broad range of subjects, looking for any composition of light, shape and form that somehow falls into place with how my eyes and mind perceive the world.

My initial focus was on wildlife and landscape photography, but has since expanded into architecture, the abstract, and of course people. Previously I have only done event photography at the request of persons familiar with my work. These events have been quite successful, so I thought I would create this website to better advertise my services.

So if you are need off someone to take nice photos, however formal, informal, arty, or bizarre, email me at ian.butler.robertson@gmail.com. Whether its group portraits, individual portfolios, event recording, even pictures of your beloved pet cat, I'm interested in any subject so send me a message!

Equipment and services

I shoot with a Nikon D40 DSLR, and I am equipped for outdoor, indoor, low light and studio photography. I also carry out colour touches and photo editing as standard on the best selection of photos.

Costs and availability

As this is only a hobby, and I am full time PhD student, I may not always be available at selected times, but with enough warning I should be able to plan in advance. Cost wise email me with details of what you would like me to cover and I can give you a quote. I can provide you with a CD/DVD of all the original photos I have taken for you, along with a selection of the best images, edited and optimised to give the best possible finished product.

Hope this site has been of interest, and I look forward to hearing from you at ian.butler.robertson@gmail.com
