Jules (from the South West) & Bean (from the South East) met at Art School way back in the 80's when, as they freely admit, they both fell victim to the whole backcombed peroxide hair, frilly shirts and eyeliner trends of the day - now, many years and fashion styles later, they can be found dividing their work lives between London and Oxford!
Both graduated Art School with portfolios full of photographs, graphics projects and tons of enthusiasm - moved to London and worked with a plethora of music, film and TV magazines - shot numerous CD covers, magazine covers, well known (and not so well known) faces, directed and produced dozens of music/corporate videos, ran a few photo studios, did a lot of work related travelling, before relocating to Oxfordshire and raising two wonderful children (now wonderful young adults)!
Between them they have amassed a huge amount of knowledge, skill, understanding, and experience of their craft which they automatically bring to every job. Whether a simple headshot, or full on video production, Jules & Bean have the right approach, tools, empathy, and vision to ensure their clients' needs are met and are as comfortable working outdoors with natural light, indoors with their mobile studio set-up, through to larger photo or film studios when required.
Their calm and patient approach has often been commented on, this ultimately leads to relaxed, natural portraits and working environments - so, whether working with highly energised (or painfully shy) children, through to high powered and time pressed CEOs, Jules & Bean will not only make you look great, but feel great during the process too!
Jules takes the pictures, shoots the videos, and is client facing. Bean sticks to the computer, designs the albums, edits all the videos, and keeps Jules in check! Both have enhanced DBS checks.
