As a Belfast photographer, one of my favourite parts of studio work is creating a space where personality, style, and storytelling come together seamlessly. Recently, I had the pleasure of welcoming actor and model Conor Schelling into my studio at Portview Trade Centre in East Belfast for a portrait session that blended classic menswear styling with a clean, modern aesthetic.

A Studio Session in East Belfast

My Belfast studio in Portview offers an ideal backdrop for editorial and portrait photography—high ceilings, natural industrial textures, and the flexibility to craft light exactly the way the story needs it. This shoot with Conor was designed around simplicity and strength: strong lines, subtle shadows, and an emphasis on expression.

If you’re looking for a studio photographer in Belfast, shoots like this highlight just how much can be achieved with controlled lighting and intentional styling.

Styling by Roseanne Crawford

Stylist Roseanne Crawford curated a refined selection from M&S menswear, pairing timeless wardrobe staples with Conor’s confident, understated presence. The pieces were chosen to photograph with elegance—structured fits, clean tones, and textures that interact beautifully with studio lighting.

From tailored jackets to relaxed knitwear, the styling added sophistication without pulling focus away from Conor’s performance in front of the camera.

Working with Actor & Model Conor Schelling

Conor brought a grounded energy to the session, shifting effortlessly between cinematic stillness and expressive movement. As a performer, he understands how to use posture, subtle expression, and eye-line to create layered imagery.

Capturing his range made this session a standout—exactly the kind of creative collaboration that makes studio photography so rewarding.
