Meet The Team

LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER

Husband to Beth and Father to Sienna and Judah. For the past 4 years Charlie has been navigating the world of photography under our previous name Westlake Photography. A self-taught photographer, Charlie began his love affair with light as a young child when he was gifted his first digital camera from his Grandfather. Picking up photography properly whilst living in Kailua Kona, Hawaii.

When Charlie is not behind the lens or playing Dad you’ll likely find him reading some obscure historical novel or listening to a political podcast.

LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER

Mother to Sienna and Judah and wife to Charlie, Beth is an extremely accomplished photographer in her own right.

Not only is she one of our lead photographers at Studio Westlake but she is quite the entrepreneur. Running two businesses (one of which is her own photography company). Beth is the beauty, the brains and guiding eye of Studio Westlake.

LEAD VIDEOGRAPHER

Husband to Lisa, Father to Charlie, Lowri & Bella. Not forgetting his most important role as Papi (Grandfather) to Sienna and Judah. Tim is a jack of all trades. Cut him open and he bleeds creativity. Graphic designer of 30 years, musician of countless instruments. You name it he can play it. - Yep, he’s one of those!

In recent years the old man has taken up video as his latest conquest. If he’s not behind the lens or at the desk you’ll likely find him down a local pub with a border collie (Keziah) at his feet and a pint of real ale in his hand.

SECOND & ASSOCIATE PHOTOGRAPHER

Josh is a close friend of Studio Westlake. He joined the team in an associate capacity in early 2021. Josh’s work carries a very naturally understated simplicity to which we love. An architectural eye with an appreciation for the natural and candid moments of life.

Josh is genuine and sincere. He captures beautiful heartfelt portraits and is incredibly easy company. His laid back manor will have you thinking you have been friends for years.

SECOND & ASSOCIATE VIDEOGRAPHER

We first came across Sam in the summer of 2020 when we had the privilege of working together on a mutual friends wedding during height of the Pandemic. Sam has a degree in filmmaking and creative media, he has been shooting weddings for over 8 years and his a very accomplished musician when he is not found with a camera in hand.

With a uniquely cinematic eye coupled alongside a wealth of technological understanding its hard to think of a more capable videographer to rely upon.
