Hi, I’m Nick King — a photographer based in Kent with a love for capturing real moments. Most weekends you’ll find me on the touchline shooting rugby for Blackheath RFC, wandering the streets of London chasing light and shadows, or finding beauty in the bold lines of modern architecture. My photography is about telling stories — whether it’s the emotion in a try-saving tackle, the grit of a city street, or the stillness of a brutalist building. I shoot mainly on a Nikon D850, but I also carry a compact camera for when the perfect shot appears out of nowhere.

My style leans towards natural, honest photography. I love black and white work, especially when it strips everything back to shape, light and emotion. Recently, I’ve been working on a few personal projects — one inspired by Queen song titles and another based around the streets that shaped A Christmas Carol. I’ve also started photographing dogs, which is brilliant fun and full of character. When it comes to editing, I keep things clean — I cull fast, sharpen what matters, and always aim to let the photo do the talking.

This site is a place to share what I’m working on — sports, street, architecture, and whatever else catches my eye. You’ll find blog posts, galleries, and stories behind the shots. Photography isn’t just something I do — it’s how I see the world, and I’m always chasing the next moment worth capturing. If you like what you see, feel free to get in touch — I’m always up for a new challenge or a good chat about music, rugby, or life behind the lens.

Here’s what I shoot with — reliable kit that helps me stay focused on the moment, whether I’m trackside, on the street, or out in the city.

Nikon D850 – My main workhorse for sports and architecture. Incredible detail, fast, and built like a tank.

Panasonic LX100 – Compact, sharp, and always with me. Perfect for candid street shots and moments that don’t wait.

Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 – Ideal for rugby and fast action, especially under floodlights.

Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 – My go-to for versatility. Great for portraits, wide shots, and everything in between.

Nikon 50mm f/1.8 – Lightweight, sharp, and brilliant for low-light or shallow depth-of-field.

Wide-angle (TBC) – Used occasionally for architectural work — let me know if you want to list a specific model here.

PhotoMechanic – For fast culling straight off the card.

Topaz Photo AI – Used for sharpening and noise reduction when I need to push the quality.

Lightroom Classic – My main editing hub — where everything comes together.
