MICHAEL EVANS VISUAL ARTS


 

“Photography is about connection — and the way moments are remembered.”

 

 

About Michael Evans

I am a Master Accredited photographer specialising in fine art portrait, headshot, and sports & event photography. My work focuses on creating thoughtful, story-led imagery that captures people with clarity, emotion, and lasting presence.

Now based in Evesham, I continue to work across portrait and event photography, creating images that feel both natural and intentional — whether in the studio or on location.

A Life Shaped by Change and Connection

My journey into photography has not been linear. I began my career in IT in the late 1970s, spending many years working in technology before discovering photography as a creative outlet that quickly became a second career — and then a passion.

Over time, that passion developed into a focus on portrait and sports photography, where timing, emotion, and human connection come together.

Relocating from Barbados to the UK marks a new chapter in both my life and work — one shaped by a desire to be closer to family and to continue building my practice in a new environment.


My Approach to Photography

I take a calm, considered approach to every session, creating an environment where people feel at ease and guided throughout the process.

Whether photographing individuals, families, professionals, or live events, I focus on natural expression, careful composition, and controlled lighting to create images that feel authentic, refined, and enduring.

The aim is always the same — to create photography that holds meaning over time.


Experience and Recognition

My work has received recognition both locally and internationally, including awards in Barbados and features in published media.

I am a Master Accredited Photographer with The Portrait System and an Associate of the ICON Awards, reflecting both technical skill and a continued commitment to professional development and high-quality imagery.


What I Do

My photography spans three core areas:

  • Fine Art Portrait Photography
  • Professional Headshots & Personal Branding
  • Sports & Event Photography

Each is approached with the same focus: clarity, storytelling, and connection.


Let’s Create Something Meaningful

Photography, for me, is about more than images — it is about creating something lasting, honest, and personal.

Something that reflects who you are today, and how you will be remembered tomorrow.


Thank you for visiting. I look forward to working with you.

I’m proud to be a Master Level Accredited Portrait Photographer with The Portrait System! In July 2024, I reached the Master level—an exciting milestone in my journey as a portrait photographer.

Beyond accreditation, my work has also been recognized on the global stage. Out of more than 4,300 images submitted by photographers from 40 countries, a jury of photography experts awarded me five Silver Awards in The Portrait Masters Awards, with one of my images winning its category and another finishing in the top 20!

Silver Awards are highly coveted in the portrait photography world—they represent exceptional technical execution and artistic vision. Reaching this level is something photographers worldwide aspire to, and the next step—Gold—is an extremely rare honor.

I’m proud to say I’ve recently been awarded two more Silver Awards at the ICON Awards—and I’ve also achieved the title of Associate of the ICON Awards!

It feels pretty fantastic to have my work recognised like this. It’s not just a boost to the ego (though I won’t pretend it isn’t!)—it’s a real motivator to keep creating portraits that are not only beautiful, but deeply meaningful to the people in them.

 

Other Awards include: 

Barbados: Multiple NIFCA Awards, when entered,  including Best Photograph 2015
