Your Photographer, Halid K Izzet.
Halid is resident photographer, owner and founder of Rhubarb & Custard. Halid is passionate about Portrait & Landscape photography and has a proven track record of both over a wide spanning career. Following his dream of owning and running a photography gallery and studio, Halid opened Rhubarb & Custard in 2008. With a number of Landscape and Travel exhibitions under his belt, he is now focusing on his other passion, Portrait photography, building the business with clients from Eton College and becoming Eton's most used portrait photographer. His concept of "My Eton Day's Books" came from a lack of photos that represented his own time at school. The ability of being able to represent a student's journey through the most prestigious school in the world, and through the time when they change the most, turning from child into adult, is both a huge privilege and fascination to him. Halid has also taught photography for over 8 years, both in workshops, evening courses and one to one lessons & coaching. He continues to teach select students on a one to one basis from Rhubarb & Custard in Eton. Halid can be booked for Private portraits, family reunions, weddings, corporate portraits and advertising work, as well as Private lessons & coaching in the Art of Photography. |
