I'm Jacquetta, a Freelance Photographer & Retoucher with 5 years of experience. I am a technically orientated photographer with a creative flair. I am a Nikon shooter with experience in studio and on-location shooting with all forms of lighting.

My career highlights include working with brands like Hedoine, Saatchi Gallery, Fushi, PDPALO, Tanner Fletcher, Nike London, Hugo Boss, Laponite, Eharmony, Onalaja, Buy Me Once, Diageo Drinks, Deliveroo, and Juice Burst. I have worked in London and New York, photographed Celebrities from Love Island, Made in Chelsea and Strictly. My work has been published in Vogue, on billboards and on the side of London Busses.
