With over 20 years of experience in the creative industry, I’ve seen firsthand how fast things change and how easy it is to feel like you’ve been left behind. I’ve worked with design teams, led projects, and coached creatives through career transitions, and I’m passionate about helping others rediscover their confidence and creative flow. After my wife

I am a freelance commercial photographer covering Hampshire and beyond.  I have extensive experience photographing art, exhibitions, events and performances.  I work on location in galleries, museums and attractions photographing exhibitions and visitors enjoying their experiences.  I also have a studio where I work on a variety of projects including product photography, corporate portraiture and advertising. I also have experience photographing the work of charities and organisations who need compelling imagery to document their activities for fund raising or annual reports. If you have a project you would like to discuss plrase drop me a line.

I’m Michael Woods, Managing Director of Solent Sky Services, which I run with my wife Sara from Portsmouth. I’ve always been creative and into tech, and drones brought the two together. Since 2017 I’ve been hooked on flying and telling stories from the air. I’m a CAA-qualified drone pilot, and I also shoot on the ground with cinema cameras, direct and edit. I love working with artists and have filmed with Olana Light and Roo Abrook, captured the Lido Lives dance film for Portsmouth 100 and cover Look Up Festival every year. I’ve run drone workshops, supported two apprentices through their courses and enjoy helping others into the industry. I’m always happy to talk ideas, collaborate and help artists see their work from a new perspective.
