PHOTOGRAPHERS' AGENTS Jul 2022

Horton-Stephens, London's leading photographers' agents for over 25 years, have been busy as usual shooting stills and moving image from online content to TVC. Featured in this Spotlight is a selection of new work, but be sure to visit the site for a full run-down.

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 we deal with often, where we only have moments to get the shot), they’ve done it all!

Head over to their Latest News section of the website to see recent projects and more.
