I am equally happy shooting portraits of professional models/ celebrities/ sportspeople/ royalty (who are all used to the camera) as I am photographing 'real' people. I shoot portraits from my photography studio in Newport, or can bring a portable portrait studio setup to your place of work.
Getting a Great Portrait
Getting a great portrait is a collaboration between myself and my sitter, who has to be relaxed enough to engage with me and my camera. I've lost count of the times that some staff member has walked into the room in a portrait session and announced "I hate having my photo taken". This is natural as many people are uncomfortable about having their portrait taken. If I took a portrait right away it would look stiff and forced, but give me 10 minutes with the sitter in these situations and I can get them to relax in my company enough for me to capture their natural character. I see this as my photography superpower - the ability to connect with people from all walks of life, all ages, all life experiences in order to get them to relax for a great photo portrait. This has come from years of practice - shooting thousands of portraits with people of all ages, and backgrounds.
Actor or Social Media Portraits / Headshots

Rwyf wedi colli cyfrif o'r amseroedd y mae rhai aelod o staff wedi cerdded i mewn i'r ystafell mewn sesiwn bortreadau a chyhoeddi "Mae'n gas gen i gael tynnu fy llun". Mae hyn yn naturiol gan fod llawer o bobl yn anghyfforddus ynglŷn â chael tynnu eu portread. Pe bawn i'n cymryd portread ar unwaith byddai'n edrych yn anystwyth ac wedi'i orfodi, ond rhowch 10 munud i mi gyda'r eisteddwr yn y sefyllfaoedd hyn a gallaf eu cael i ymlacio yn fy nghwmni ddigon i mi ddal eu cymeriad naturiol. Rwy'n gweld hwn fel fy archbŵer ffotograffiaeth - y gallu i gysylltu â phobl o bob cefndir, pob oed, pob profiad bywyd er mwyn eu cael i ymlacio ar gyfer llun-bortread gwych.

I have a photography studio based in Newport, but can also come to your place of work with a portable photography studio setup to take your company headshots (also called staff portraits) for your website or print marketing work. Together we'll decide on a portrait style - whether that's white background, environmental, colour background (including matching your corporate brand colours), black and white, formal, approachable - that suits your brand and then shoot you a range of high quality staff portraits which all fit together stylistically. We'll work out how you want your staff to dress for the photos, and plan each part of the photoshoot. I've shot many hundreds of company headshots, so let me help you get the best portraits possible.
I appreciate that loads of people hate having their photograph taken, but over the years have learned to quickly develop a rapport with your team members, putting them at ease before taking the photographs. I'll need about 10 minutes with each sitter to achieve this. I'll also supply a pdf for your team to tell them what to expect from a photoshoot with me, what to wear, what to avoid etc. Despite having many years experience in different styles of photography (event, fashion, product etc), it is portrait photography that I excel at - and that's a combination of creative and technical skills coupled with a real talent for communicating with people. This allows me to quickly put nervous sitters at ease to get the best corporate photos that I can.

Newport is often its worst enemy - with a tendency for locals (and near neighbours) to complain about the state of the city - focusing on the bad and ignoring the good. I hope these portraits have the opposite effect, showing the rich cultural diversity of the people of Newport in a positive light.

Over a series of open sessions I've invited anyone who is interested to come and sit for a free portrait, and these have been held in a range of local venues including Community House in Maindee, Phyllis Maud Theatre in Pillgwenlly. Maindee Library, the Riverfront Arts Centre and others.
About 10 years ago I heard a recitation of a poem by local poet Susan Lewis entitled 'Maindee'. The last line struck a chord with work I was already doing, and gave me a new title for the project. The line was 'Here we are. All together. Welsh from Everywhere'. When I grew up in the small mining village of Deri in the Rhymney Valley, everyone was white and Welsh and except for the odd English person, the Italian families running the cafes in Bargoed (the Rossis and Riccis), or the Indian and Chinese families running the local takeaways it was a very 'traditional' Welsh community. When I moved to Newport at 9 years old I immediately noticed a real difference in the cultural makeup of the place - and later moved to the most cosmopolitan city in the world, London.
Making the Connection
Getting a successful portrait is so much more than positioning your sitter in from of the camera, saying 'smile please' and sending them on their way. To get the shots I want, I need to make some connection with each and every sitter. I need to get them to relax and the best way to do this is simply by chatting to them, sharing stories, asking questions and making a real connection. I've come to see this ability to connect with anyone, whatever their background, age, ethnicity, gender (etc) as my photography superpower, and it is the connection that I make with the sitters that gets me the photo that later allows the viewer to similarly connect.
We seem to have gone backwards in terms of acceptance of 'others' over the last ten years or so with social media and shyster politicians amplifying and spreading fear of the other for their own gains. This project is my attempt to rebalance this slide into fear of others, though I strive not to be overtly political. I try to show that people are people are people - each one an individual and all the same on a fundamental level despite cultural or religious differences.
I've met an photographed people who originally hail from over 30 different countries but have made Newport, and Wales their home.
Shot in 2019, these are some of the first photos from my Welsh From Everywhere / Cymry o Bob Man project. Shot in Community House in Newport's Maindee area, the project aims to investigate the rich cultural diversity of the region. The local school has over 30 nations represented, and as many first languages spoken at home in Maindee. I'm looking forward to adding to the project over time, when social distancing restrictions allow.
Jessica Morden MP was kind enough to have her portrait taken and offer the following kind words for a video showcasing some of the portraits:
"Rhys's wonderful portraits draw attention to the strength of Newport as a city - by emphasising how welcoming our community is, and how much richer our culture is as a result. This is especially true of Maindee, where I live, and in Community House, Eton Road, where these portraits were taken. Here we welcome and celebrate the cultures of people from all backgrounds, making Wales a home for all"
There's a short video about this project available on YouTube /

Wedi'i saethu yn 2019, dyma rai o'r lluniau cyntaf o fy mhrosiect Cymraeg O Bobman / Cymry o Bob Man. Wedi'i saethu yn Community House yn ardal Maendy Casnewydd, nod y prosiect yw ymchwilio i amrywiaeth ddiwylliannol gyfoethog y rhanbarth. Mae gan yr ysgol leol dros 30 o genhedloedd, a chymaint o ieithoedd cyntaf yn cael eu siarad gartref ym Maendy. Rwy'n edrych ymlaen at ychwanegu at y prosiect dros amser, pan fydd cyfyngiadau ymbellhau cymdeithasol yn caniatáu hynny.
Roedd Jessica Morden AS yn ddigon caredig i gael tynnu ei phortread a chynnig y geiriau caredig canlynol ar gyfer fideo yn arddangos rhai o’r portreadau:
"Mae portreadau gwych Rhys yn tynnu sylw at gryfder Casnewydd fel dinas - drwy bwysleisio pa mor groesawgar yw ein cymuned, a pha mor gyfoethocach yw ein diwylliant o ganlyniad. Mae hyn yn arbennig o wir am Faendy, lle rwy'n byw, ac yn Nhŷ Cymunedol," Heol Eton, lle tynnwyd y portreadau hyn. Yma rydym yn croesawu ac yn dathlu diwylliannau pobl o bob cefndir, gan wneud Cymru yn gartref i bawb."
Mae yna fideo byr am y prosiect yma ar YouTube.
