Gareth Redfern-Shaw

Owner / Photographer

Gareth (he/him) is an Englishman, a stay-at-home father, a husband and a photographer.

Hi, I’m Gareth and I was born in Hazlemere in Buckinghamshire, England. I grew up shooting 35mm then moved over to medium format all before I went to university, at the same time I learned to process and print my own film in a darkroom.

Lyra Redfern-Shaw

Sleeping Partner

Lyra is the gorgeous baby girl my wife Kat and I have been waiting a long time for. She maybe sleeping, but she’s certainly not a silent partner! Unless she falls asleep during a session or on my desk whilst I’m editing.

We decided, long before Lyra was conceived that I would be the stay-at-home dad, because I can arrange my sessions around her schedule. Quality over quantity, this means I can dedicate more time to you and your session whilst also dedicating the rest of my time to raising Lyra. Being there every step of the way for her.
