Elle Brotherhood — Professional Photographer based in the UK
As a proud member of the UK’s dynamic creative community, I bring a unique perspective to every project I take on. Whether capturing the essence of architecture on a walk, working with commercial and non-commercial clients, or crafting the visual identity of brands, I always prioritize the story behind the image.
For the past 20 years, I’ve been a Manchester-based photographer, where I’ve had the privilege of photographing independent brands and championing the transformative power of creativity.

Having experience across different shooting contexts enables me to maintain a consistent visual language while remaining flexible. From intimate studio portraits and product-focused imagery to large-scale events, creative spaces and outdoor locations, I approach each shoot with the same attention to detail, narrative awareness and sensitivity to subject and environment. This adaptability allows clients to work with a single photographer across multiple formats, ensuring visual cohesion while responding to the unique demands of each setting.
My approach to photography is rooted in documentation rather than direction. Rather than constructing moments, I focus on observing them, allowing stories to unfold naturally and capturing images that feel honest, intuitive and emotionally grounded. This documentary-led way of working creates photographs that go beyond surface aesthetics and hold lasting narrative value.
With a background spanning editorial, lifestyle and long-form documentary photography, I bring a considered storytelling perspective to every project. I work closely with brands, designers and creatives to understand their process, values and intent, ensuring the final imagery reflects not just what something looks like, but what it is. This results in visual work that feels thoughtful, human and connected to real experience.
I place equal importance on process and presence. By working calmly and unobtrusively, I create space for genuine moments to emerge, whether documenting behind-the-scenes activity, creative environments or cultural events.
