Photographic styles & categories
Music photography is the art of adding rhythmic motion to photos and covers a wide range of styles. From capturing DJs and artists on decks, to bands and solo artists performing at live events. As a freelance photographer, it's great to be part of a musician's journey to fame.
Fashion photography is not just about the clothes but as an experienced freelance photographer, I can help you capture the perfect image. All you have to do is think about the style, accessories and vibe. These are all important aspects for the shoot and should compliment each other.
Artistic photography is a creative and unique style that allows you to be visionary, experimental and playful. As a freelance photographer, I can help express your ideas in a way that is imaginative and aesthetically pleasing and will truly connect with others.
During the photoshoot, Rohan was friendly and outgoing whilst still remaining professional. He perfectly blended our bands' vision for the shoot with his knowledge and expertise of what could realistically be achieved.

I booked Rohan for my 21st birthday party & I couldn't recommend him enough. The photos came out amazing and everybody was so pleased with them. Rohan was very efficient and professional. I would 100% rebook him in the future & recommended to everybody!
Always buzzing when I find out Rohan is behind the lens at events. Can ensure the key moments from the night are captured in their full glory, also the attention to detail in his edits is very noticeable. Couldn’t recommend him more.

I charge by the hour or a day rate, although it may vary from project to project and depends on your requirement. My standard hourly rate is £70 - £100 per hour, including editing, and my day rate is £250 including editing. For music photography, I charge between £80 - £100 per event which includes editing.
The estimated time for editing is about 3 to 5 days. I usually aim to supply your photos within this time but should any delays occur, I will communicate this with you.
Edited photos are supplied as JPG or PNG files and will be digitally transferred via a downloadable link. I could also send them to you on a USB flash drive, whichever is your preference.

I’m Rohan Walsh, freelance photographer based in Manchester. I was born in Manchester but as I’m half Mancunian (British) and half South African, I spent the first two years of my life in Johannesburg and often travel back to visit the family. Photography started off as a hobby. I was gifted my first DSLR camera during my final year of college where I studied Photography, Japanese, Criminology and Law . From there, it became a passion and a relentless pursuit of capturing art in its various forms and creativity.
