Mike Weeks

As part of his military duties Mike photographed his first event in 1981 long before the term 'Event Photography' was even coined. Mike has also benefited strongly from his background as a communications engineer. He has put his experience to good use in bringing together the various required elements to successfully photographing different types of events.

Leaving the military in 2006, Mike took the opportunity to apply his skills into commercial events photography. It was during this time that he developed a successful method of marketing himself and his work to a wider audience. Subsequently Mike set up UK PhotoEvent.com as a new way for event photographers to work together and promote their photography services.

Mike is a qualified member of the BIPP (British Institute of Professional Photographers) and also lectures in information technology and web development.
