The Lead Photographer
Claire is a passionate photographer who grew up in Cambridge but now calls Sunderland home since her move in 2022. She started Claire Louise Photography back in April 2009, driven by her love for capturing the little moments that make life special.
In April 2022, she decided to branch out, launching Claire Louise Event Photography. This new adventure lets her dive into the lively world of theatre, where she covers gigs, live performances, rehearsals, and those behind-the-scenes glimpses that often go unnoticed.
Claire loves to photograph not just events, but other artists, corporate functions, weddings, and family portraits. She enjoys connecting with her clients to bring out their personality and get the very best out of every shoot.
In January 2025 she brought an assistant on board to help with larger gatherings, making shoots more fun and manageable.
When she’s not busy photographing, you’ll likely find her wandering along the coastline, soaking up the beach vibes or exploring nature, always with her camera close by ready to capture whatever beauty comes her way.
Assistant to the Photographer
Mark has been working alongside Claire on her shoots since January 2025. As her partner in both business and in life, he is a crucial part of her venture.
He brings a wealth of technical expertise and supports her at events, markets, and a variety of shoots.
