Michelle Marshall
London, UK
I was born and bred in Lyon (France) and came to the UK in 1995 to study photography. I graduated from the University of Derby under the creative lead of influential practitioners such as John X Berger, John Blakemore and Richard Sadler to name a few.
I now live and work in London as a freelance photographer. My work mainly revolves around portraiture and kids fashion photography, with assignments ranging from commercial and fashion to editorials and private commissions. My style of photography favours the candid over the contrived, and I mostly work with natural light. I am also drawn to the powerful stillness found in everyday scenes and in nature in its many manifestations. Taking pictures affords me the opportunity to satisfy an urge to reveal, remember, relate, exchange, project onto and inherently exercise a degree of continued introspection. creating images reminiscent of childhood, gaining of an awareness through the representation of others and pondering on the metaphysical weight of nature are current areas of exploration. I aim to produce work with an aesthetic content and at times engage in social observations.
