Malkin Photography

At Malkin Photography, we are passionate about capturing the beauty of the world around us through our photography and writing. Our journey began over 15 years ago, when we made the decision to leave our corporate careers behind and pursue our true passions. Our photographer and author, Helen Shelmerdine, has always been driven by her love of photography and writing, and has spent years honing her skills and building a portfolio of stunning images.

Our Work

We offer a wide range of photography services, from landscape and commercial photography to portrait and wedding photography. Our photography style is distinctively unique, with a focus on capturing the beauty of the world around us. Whether it's a sweeping landscape, a bustling cityscape, or a quiet moment of intimacy, we strive to capture the essence of the moment.

Commercial Photography

In addition to our landscape and portrait photography, we also offer commercial photography services. We work closely with our clients to understand their needs and create images that meet their specific goals. Our commercial photography services include product photography, advertising photography, and corporate photography.

Writing and Publishing

In addition to our photography work, Helen is also a published author. She has written several books, including her memoir about walking from Land's End to John o'Groats, which was published in 2014. Her writing is characterized by its warm and engaging style, making her books a pleasure to read.
