Profile

Welcome to Eric Whitehead Photography - Corporate and Snooker Photographer in Windermere

ric Whitehead Photography was established in 1983 after I left my staff newspaper job. I decided to start the business because I wanted to expand the scope of photography that I was covering at the time and also to work more in providing images for the national newspapers and media. Since that time the business has continued to expand. I cover Cumbria and The Lake District for all the UK national press. In my career I have provided photographs of 'hard news' events such as Lockerbie, through to 'soft news' and 'features' for magazines. My work soon expanded into public relations and corporate photography.

The business incorporates three aspects of my work: my editorial and corporate work; the picture library of snooker photography in Snookerimages; and the images and photography of Cumbria and The Lake District in 'Cumbria Images'.

Career Info

Through the 30 years that I have been working, I have consistently provided images for a many varied clients. and continuing with my love of editorial photography I have worked for all the national newspapers.

The snooker photography has taken me all over the world; to tournaments in Europe, China, Thailand, Dubai and other countries. I have built up a library that is the world's number one source of snooker photography, during which I have worked for many clients, sponsors and media.

The photographs from Cumbria Images have been used in publishing, calendars; for editorial and feature articles, advertising and promotions.

I just love all photography, especially the excitement of competing against deadlines to get pictures to the desk in time and the challenge of producing exciting images from a variety of situations. I love meeting people and spending time to learn about their situation and using photography to portray this. I like to be unobtrusive and compassionate and to feel that in some way I am just recording a moment without changing or manipulating the environment.
