About James Photography
Hello! My name is Farrell James and I am your freelance photographer!
​
James Photography started in 2019 where I took pictures of some of my friends simply as a little pet project or hobby.
​
Having enjoyed doing so, I would later in the year decide to take pictures of the University of Ottawa's Men and Women's Basketball teams.
During, the pandemic, I slowly continued marketing my photos and developing my skills. After a bit, that is when I decided to be a photographer for hire as well.
After Covid had started, I moved to Preston, Lancashire where after meeting new people, I was able to develop my portrait skills with the new surrounding I was in.
After a year of settling in, I began doing additonal photoshoots for local university societies as well UCLan's Men's Basketball team.
Why Sports Photography?
I have been an athlete most of my life, playing sports is something that brings out the most thrill in my life.
I have had numerous memorable plays that I will always remember but also watched quite a few amusing games. So being able to capture those best moments and enclose those emotions in a frame for other athletes is something I sincerely enjoy doing.
Why Portrait Photography?
Fashion became something I was advidly interested in, trying on new clothing and branching out to different styles always intriguing to do. And seeing those outfits photographed to remember it is something you cherish. So helping others show case their unique outfits and personal sense of fashion in mutliple photos is a pleasure for me.
