Hi, I'm Barney 👋, a photographer based in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, Nouvelle Aquitaine, France, available for photography services across the surrounding areas.
I’m a professional commercial photographer and occasional photographic event organiser, permanently based in central France since 2022. I am fully bilingual in English and French and am happy to work with clients in either language.
My commercial photography covers a wide range of subjects, with particular experience in football and dance photography. I also undertake assignments for product photography, fashion, ballet, fitness, sport, tourism, automotive, food, architecture and interior design, as well as artistic and erotic photography and video.
I have a fully portable professional studio setup, allowing me to work both on location and at a client's premises. My background as a dancer and choreographer also gives me a particular understanding of movement, performance and working with dancers and performers.
With around 40 years of experience, my work has been published internationally in more than 80 countries across five continents. I have built an extensive portfolio working with clients, models, dancers and other creative professionals.
I trained and worked as a dancer and choreographer earlier in my career, giving me a strong understanding of performance and movement. I still have a particular affinity with dance and ballet photography.
Alongside photography, I am also a published writer, proof-reader and translator, specialising in French and Latin to English translation.
I am a member of the SIFGP and various international photography and modelling organisations. I hold €5 million public liability insurance and am available for assignments throughout France and further afield.
