Keith Morris is a commercial photographer living and working in the seaside town of Aberystwyth. His main area of focus is the commercial and news market, deriving a significant amount of income from stock photography. Keith uses his expertise, knowledge and understanding of the market to great effect. By his own admission he does not travel far and works primarily within a 20 mile radius of Aberystwyth and so successful is he at the commercial end of stock, he now runs courses on how to deliver it in an increasingly difficult and competitive area of photography.

His personal work is also geared with the commercial market in mind: he has a long-held passion for working with actors and dancers in theatre and, if the opportunity arises, stills photography for television series are also another source of income. Telling stories is part and parcel of Keith’s raison d'être and he enjoys creating scenarios using actors and models but always with the commercial market in mind. His enthusiasm for his trade is boundless. Sit back and enjoy Keith at his loudest best!

Mae rhan sylweddol o'i incwm yn dod o'r ddwy ffynhonnell yma. Y mae Keith yn defnyddio ei arbenigedd, a gwybodaeth o'r farchnad mewn modd effeithiol iawn. Nid yw Keith yn teithio yn bell o'i gynefin a cymaint ei arbenigedd o fyd ffotograffiaeth stoc mae e'n rhedeg cyrsiau ar sut i dynnu lluniau mewn byd cystadleuol iawn.

Mae gogwydd masnachol ar ei waith personol ac mae'n gweithio ym myd theatr a dawns ac os bydd cyfle yn codi mae'n hoff o weithio ym myd teledu a ffilm.

Adrodd straeon yw raison d'être Keith ac mae e'n hoff iawn o greu senarios gan ddefnyddio actorion, dawnswyr a modelau ond trwy lygaid masnachol. Mae brwdfrydedd Keith yn ddiben draw. Eisteddwch yn gyffyrddus a gwrandewch ar afiaith y ffotograffydd diddorol yma!
