About Me
Hey! I’m Isabella Banks a lifestyle photographer based in Cornwall. I travel freelance all around the UK and have been fortunate to have been featured in some of the most incredible publications, which I could never have dreamed of when I first started my photography journey.
Photography has always been more than just a career for me; it’s a true reflection of who I am, and what I do. As a mother of two wonderful children, my love for photography was born from having my first child and wanting to document his first stages of life.
When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me at the beach, or skateboarding. These recent passions have added a new dimension to my work, exploring a whole new path incorporating both passions.
Myself and Business Partner Chantie, have just opened up the first content studio in Cornwall, iZANTI Studios, we are excited to showcase this in Cornwall and work with some incredible brands from jewellery, to branding shoots, to podcasts. The space is endless for what it can be used for.
A proud moment was when I worked with an International client, based in New York – Narz Baby which hired me for some work which landed in British Vogue! With the added bonus of it being my daughter Halle modelling.
I feel incredibly grateful to be doing what I love, and I whole heartedly embrace every opportunity and connection I meet along the way.
If you’re looking to document moments, create aesthetic visuals, I’d love to be a part of your journey.
Thank you for stopping by and taking a look into my world. Feel free to explore my portfolio and if you’d like to work together or know more, drop me a message.
