Background
Helen Mahon of HM Portraits is a professionally trained photographer with expertise in both traditional and digital photography.

Helen’s skills go beyond the standard; she’s known for her ability to adapt to various styles, from classic edits to artistic compositions. Her portfolio spans creative reflections, abstract imagery, and other unique approaches, showcasing her versatility and artistic talent.
