Shooting the Dame.

Join award-winning photographer, author and RPS Fellow Amy Bateman for an inspiring talk on storytelling in portrait photography, including behind-the-scenes insights from photographing Dame Judi Dench.

Amy will explore how to create portraits that go beyond a simple likeness, looking at how environment, connection, light and timing can all help reveal character and narrative within an image.

Drawing on her own portrait work and the experience of photographing one of Britain’s most celebrated actors, this session offers a rare look at the creative choices, challenges and quiet moments that shape a memorable portrait.

Perfect for photographers interested in portraiture, environmental storytelling, documentary-style image-making and working with people, this talk offers practical inspiration for creating images with depth, honesty and emotional impact.
