Simon Plant is a photographer and retoucher with 38 years of experience, specialising in commercial and advertising photography for international brands, holiday and residential property, and corporate photography.
Based in Somerset, providing expert services to B2B clients and luxury estates across Devon and Dorset, as well as working for brands on location nationally and internationally. Every image is shot on professional-grade camera systems and lenses, then processed and retouched personally — so the quality and integrity of the final result is entirely in one pair of hands.
