Photography and writing for books, magazines and newspapers
Nigel’s photography is strongly supported by the writing side of his business. This editorial photography and writing consists mainly of the provision of complete text-and-photo packages for books and magazines. However, he also provides words for bespoke travel brochures, promoting venues and events.
This writing service enables Nigel to offer publishers complete packages in which the words and photos are tailored to match each other.
