Fine Art & Sculpture Photography

Fine Art & Sculpture Photography for Artists and Galleries by Photographer Colin Hawkins

I’ve been photographing artworks and sculpture for over 30 years, collaborating closely with artists, sculptors, and galleries to capture the essence of their creations. My background in Fine Art gives me a deep appreciation for the artist’s vision, allowing me to document works in a way that not only preserves but enhances the artist’s original intent. I understand the nuances of light, texture, and form, ensuring that my images do justice to the creative process behind each piece.

Capturing the Intricacies of Sculpture Photography

Photographing sculpture presents unique challenges, as it involves translating a three-dimensional object into a two-dimensional image. The complexities of form, surface texture, and ambient lighting require a careful approach to ensure that the final photograph captures the depth and detail of the work. I approach each sculpture photography session with precision, aiming to convey the true character and intricacies of the piece in a way that resonates with both the artist and the audience.

Tailored Photography Sessions for Sculptors, Painters, and Craft Makers

I work closely with sculptors, painters, and craft makers to understand the specific details that make their work unique. Each photography session is tailored to the individual artist’s needs and aspirations, whether that involves shooting in a gallery, my studio, the artists studio or on location. I take into account the artist’s process and how best to represent it in the final images, ensuring a collaborative and bespoke experience.

Affordable and Competitive Rates for Artists

I also recognise that many artists work with limited budgets. That’s why I offer competitive rates, tailored to the specifics of each project. Factors such as the number of pieces, location, and any additional services will be considered in the pricing, and I provide clear, detailed quotes upfront. My goal is to make professional documentation accessible to artists without compromising on quality, helping you showcase your work in the best possible light.

"Colin is a phenomenal photographer….he could not have made me feel more comfortable. Throughout the shoot, he remained conscious of my artistic visions and captured them perfectly, whilst gently directing me throughout the process.“
