Who Is Behind The Lens

​​

My name is John Brodie and I am an accomplished and experienced wedding, portrait and wildlife photographer as well as being an avid photography enthusiast. My love affair with photography commenced back in 1976. I was initially inspired by my Father, an amateur photographer in his own right. My very first camera was a 35mm Canon AE Program, cutting edge technology in its day. Today I use the Canon EOS 5D Mk3 and the Canon R5.

​

Photography hasn't always been my main profession, I served an apprenticeship as a pipe fitter and have worked all my life in the Oil & Gas industry in many corners of the world. My job has taken me to Australia, Far East, Middle East, Scandinavia and Europe.

 

It was during my time working in the Far East that I first entered the digital world of Photography and I bought my first Digital SLR Camera which was an EOS10D. I very soon outgrew this great entry level camera and traded up to the fabulous Full Frame EOS 5D. This camera was then superseded by the Canon EOS 5D Mk3, and recently I have upgraded to the amazing Canon R5 Full Frame Mirrorless camera. The Canon R5 will be my weapon of choice now as it is probably one of the best cameras for wedding photography, in fact it is just a great all round camera. This Canon R5 will be backed up by the EOS 5D Mk3.

​

With the horrendous challenges that 2020 has thrown at all of us, I took the decision to use my photography skills to build a business but while still continuing taking photographs and editing in other areas that I love, such as wildlife photography, local photography, old photo restorations and photoshop conversions. Heres hoping 2021 is a great year ahead.

​

Even though I have been taking wedding, portrait and animal photos for around 10 years, 2021 sees me expanding and doing these events as a business.
