Photographer, adventurer and tutor
Damien Lovegrove
What makes me tick
I love teaching how to photograph beautiful people in beautiful places with a narrative and soul. I’m passionate about light and will show you how to take control of shadows, contrast and tone to create photographs with balance and harmony. Although I’m a highly technical photographer, I will show you how to capture connection, intimacy and sensuality in your photographs.
Your experience with me
Be my guest! On a Lovegrove adventure or workshop I’ll share everything I do with you. Your confidence behind the camera will grow throughout our time together. I’ll teach you how to find and use wonderful light, how to pose and communicate with our model. I’ll encourage a relaxed shooting experience where everyone is included. We’ll have good times together and the fun won’t stop when the shooting stops.
Behind the scenes
Julie, my wife is the business finance director and I am the dreamer. We both travel the world, living our lives to the full while teaching other photographers new skills. We love sharing happy times together and helping others to achieve their potential.
Personal traits
You know that guy who cries at movies? Well, that’s me. I guess I’m emotionally fragile but some would say ‘strong in character’. I’d consider myself to be shy although I’m gregarious too. Interaction with creative minds fizzing with ideas excites me and I live for the fun moments. I’m also known to enjoy a beer or a glass of wine at the end of the day. I love to cook with passion and usually off-piste.
