London-based photographer Morné van Zyl is a true portraitist at heart. Inspired by classic painters and photography masters in equal measures, he has spent the last decade developing a visual aesthetic which is distinct and recognizable. Fortunately, this natural ability as a portrait photographer, along with his strong command of artificial light, has proved a good fit for commercial clients where authentic performances are often a key requirement in effectively communicating a brand message.
Previously based in Cape Town, Morné has developed an impressive local and international client base. Key to his success has been his efficient and unfussy approach to his photography work. His ability to stay cool under pressure enables him to deliver outstanding images time after time. He has earned a reputation for delivering high-profile advertising campaigns and editorial features within extremely tight timelines and budgets.
Equally comfortable working in studio or setting up on location, Morné enjoys working solo, or taking creative direction and working with a team.
Clients include Virgin, Qatar Airways, Puma, British Airways, GQ, Wired Magazine, Red Bull, Condé Nast Traveller, Financial Times, Sky Sports, SA Rugby, Men’s Health, Cosmopolitan, Sports Illustrated, Women’s Health, John Brown, Sanlam, eTV, Discovery and Kulula.
