About Me
About Ben Adams Photography
Ben Adams Photography began in 2017, after I moved from Oxford to Leeds and turned a lifelong passion into a full-time freelance career. What started with photographing pets quickly expanded into a multi-genre practice—celebrating people, creativity, and innovation through photography.
Driven by a love for animals and storytelling, I began offering pet photoshoots in support of the RSPCA, combining creativity with purpose. These sessions gained popularity, leading to loyal clients and ongoing fundraising efforts. In 2022, I completed a photography degree at Leeds City College to refine both my artistic vision and technical skill.
Now fully self-employed, I specialise in personalised sessions across four areas:
- Pet & Family Photography – capturing the joy, personality, and bonds that make pets part of the family.
- Weddings – blending documentary, artistic, and traditional styles to tell the full story of your day with warmth and precision.
- Astrithia – my creative fashion work, where I explore style, identity, and expression through bold editorial imagery.
- Celestial Phoenix Images – a dedicated branch of my practice documenting STEM, engineering, and space exploration projects, blending aesthetics with educational storytelling.
Whether I’m photographing a playful puppy, a heartfelt wedding, a student rocket launch, or a conceptual fashion shoot, I approach every session with enthusiasm, care, and attention to detail. My mission is to create images that are not only visually striking but deeply meaningful—capturing the real emotion, energy, and story behind each moment.
