Liam • Portraits

This is the third time I’ve photographed Liam, and this time was just a little different . . . He wanted some portraits to show off his character as an actor which will be featured on his website.  We started off in deepest, wettest Leeds in The Adelphi pub, whilst dodging the rain and traffic...

Skills.
