Rockrose Photography
Based in the rolling hills of Dartmoor, Jules and Becs of Rockrose photography are surrounded by natural beauty, which is reflected in their work. Both are graduates of Fine Art Photography and have been creating personal work for over 12 years. Covering weddings, portraiture and commercial photography they capture the essence of their subject, with a mixed style of documentary, reportage and posed shots. Their photographs are contemporary, fun and evocative with a vintage twist.
Becs produced some beautiful images for the launch of madebyhandonline.com, and Sarah and Katie would definitely recommend her for product photography.
