Dan May Photography
...a lifetime arranging shapes
A little background
I have been a professional photographer for over 30 years. I used to shoot for Telegraph Colour Library and Getty Images. Happily, I now work directly with anyone who is interested!
I style and shoot contemporary portraits of people (and dogs), landscape, fashion and food . I am increasingly immersed in personal projects and am currently working on a new exhibition collection entitled ‘The map is not the land’.
I am the author of 2 cookbooks for RPS and was the one-time owner of the world’s most northerly chilli farm. I live in the beautiful wilds of Northumberland with my rather wonderful wife and children. If I am not here, I’ll be trail running or hill walking…
