I've always been a keen photographer, as part of my initial recovery from CFS I did a diploma in digital photography that I could study when I couldn't sleep and as energy allowed. 

This opened doors as I started posting on social media, and people started enquiring about shoots. I love shooting wedding and portraits, events are a specialty of mine now. I am head of photography for Norwich Pride, and love every single year organising the photography team to work across various locations in Norwich to cover the 18,000 people who attend each year. 

I now have a successful business shooting wedding, events and more. And have started a degree in fine art photography to broaden my horizons. 

Check out my work at www.burtonstudio.co.uk and give my socials a follow. And if you need a shoot, you know where to come.
