More Than Just a Snapshot

I’m Ian, and I believe every person deserves a portrait they love. Based in the valleys of Pontypool, I’ve spent my career capturing "almost everything"—weddings, family portraits, events, and the rugged beauty of our Welsh landscape.

But my true passion? Inclusion. I’m proud to specialize in ALN Photography, a journey that has earned me multiple awards but, more importantly, has allowed me to provide families with memories they once thought might be too stressful to capture..

Emotion Picture is a family run business with families in mind, as a busy father of 5 children I understand how getting that beautiful image you have always wanted can be somewhat challenging shall we say.

That’s where we come in, with over 24 years of experience we will work around you and your family to give you the result you desire at a price that you can afford.

“You don’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” - Ansel Adams

We are family run company that understand exactly what Families want.

“Photography for me is not looking, its feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.” - Don McCullin

I would highly recommend Ian for photos. He has such a relaxed approach but has such attention to detail. He listened to what I wanted and made sure I was happy with the results. He built up a relationship with my little girl and made her laugh and smile, which shows through each photo taken. Nothing was too much and I never felt like I was wasting his time. Thank you for such fantastic photos which look amazing on the canvas I got :) will definitely use again. Thank you x
