Our Background

About Pippa

Pippa is above all a story-teller, and through her experience in documentary photojournalism (Discovery Channel and National Geographic) and documentary television (where she won a BAFTA) she is able to capture the most special moments of your life.

She is inspired by photographers like Annie Leibovitz and Elliot Erwitt for their capacity to capture candid moments and reveal the intimacy of their subjects. Pippa’s proudest moment so far was photographing Nelson Mandela at his 90th birthday celebrations in Hyde Park in 2008.
