My name is Michael Pollard, a photographer specialising in actor's headshots and arts & heritage photography.

Actors Headshots, Art Photographer

I've been a professional photographer for over twenty-five years and for most of that time I've photographed actors and artworks.

I'm fortunate to shoot for and work closely with many of the top actors' agencies in Manchester, the North West and further afield, producing promotional headshots.

I also provide archival photography to galleries, museums and libraries. I specialise in high-resolution digitisation of collections, installation and architectural photography and digital restoration.
