TV and Film Unit Stills Photographer

Hello!

I’m Rachel, a professional photographer based in Cardiff, South Wales. I’ve been working full-time as a freelance photographer since 2012, specialising in weddings, portraits, and commercial projects. Alongside this, I occasionally work as a supporting artist on TV productions - an experience that first introduced me to the world of unit stills photography.

My background in wedding photography has been invaluable - teaching me resilience, adaptability, and the ability to stay composed and organised in even the most challenging situations (including coordinating groups of 100+ lively guests!). These skills translate seamlessly into the fast-paced, collaborative environment of film and television production.

I’m a natural people person, confident in building rapport quickly and working comfortably in diverse settings. I’m also highly organised, with a love of planning and logistics - spreadsheets and action plans are my happy place. When I’m not shooting, I’m often travelling and researching locations.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients such as the BBC, S4C, EE, and Six Nations Rugby. My portfolio spans publicity and promotional campaigns, behind-the-scenes coverage, editorial features, and cover art. Across every project, I aim to create striking, cinematic imagery that captures authentic moments with impact and precision.

I’m genuinely excited to bring this approach into the world of TV and film stills photography. If you’re working on a production and looking for a dedicated, creative stills photographer, I’d love to hear from you.
