Lara Jade is a freelance photographer from the Midlands, England. It was in early 2007 that she decided to turn her hobby into a profession by opening her own business 'Lara Jade Photography', where she takes on a number of clients from models to musicians. Her main goal on a photo shoot is to capture the emotions and styles of her client, whilst making them feel at ease. She also tells tales through her work, coming up with original concepts and pushing the boundaries of the average portrait through her use of perspective and digital darkroom techniques. From an interview with 'Dejour Magazine' "To fully appreciate the merits of Lara’s work in the same manner her avid fans do, you would have to consider the extent of her youth, the considerable size of her portfolio (at least 5 years worth of work, and counting), and the infinite expanse of her imagination. Discounting Lara’s account on online photo-sharing application Flickr, a modest average of 6000 individuals per day peruse her extensive gallery on art community DeviantArt, where she assumes the well-known sobriquet of ‘larafairie’. Features on photography magazines such as Practical Photography and Digital Camera Magazine only confirm Lara’s charm as a promising débutante in the world of photography. The allure of Lara’s work transcends that of her undeniably photogenic face staring out of many moody self-portraits. Instead, the major attraction lies in her ability to capture spellbinding stories within the confines of the photograph’s borders. For instance, her photo projects, namely ‘Phobias’ and ‘Crime Scenes’ highlight her ability to produce a cohesive narrative through photography. Even at her tender age, Lara’s flourishing reputation as a meticulous photographer has allowed her to play her trade, mainly shooting portraits. Her list of clients includes music artistes InMe and Sam Roman, UK-based jewellers Kokkino and Laura Bezant as well as freelance dancer Rachel Martin. Lara’s masterful visual storytelling stems from her attention to the minutest detail in which she assumes almost total control over the resulting photograph." Services Lara is available to take on personal / commercial photo shoots and design work (CD/Book Covers/Posters etc).
