"We're in! Join us in our brand spankingly new studio in West Norwood, SE27. We cut the ribbon (not literally) on Wednesday, with Rimmel London the first through the doors.

We think it's perfect timing to open our ultra-modern warehouse conversion studio. We're still doing remote approvals, of course, but more and more our clients are starting to see us again, in person.

Check our socials for our latest cosmetics, jewellery, fashion accessories and food and drink work, and get in touch to book your next shoot. We know you'll love our new place."

Horton-Stephens, London's leading photographers' agents for over 25 years, are happy to introduce some new talent - Jack Lawson. Jack’s work is a great mix of lifestyle alongside some amazing personal projects from Uganda and Ghana. His gallery is now live on their website!

Horton-Stephens is well-known for representing a world-class group of photographers, but moving image has become a bigger and bigger part of what the team do. Great production remains key to the success of all their shoots.

They’re friendly and approachable, with an encyclopaedic knowledge of lighting, casting, locations (in the UK and worldwide), set building, timings, post-production, CGI and moving image - whether shooting TVCs or on the back of TVCs (a very particular challenge that they deal with often, where they only have moments to get the shot), they’ve done it all! They also look after two CGI outfits!

Head over to their latest news section of the website to see recent projects and more.
