Helen Tinner’s biography

Distinctive, unobtrusive and always looking for your best side.

A fashion image from Helen’s model agency years

Helen began her career on film sets and became Head of Photography for Granada SKY Broadcasting at the age of 24. She later ran Shocks Models alongside a make-over studio, transforming everyday people into professional models.

Her portfolio reaches from The Beatles Anthology to television personalities, sports and film stars, politicians and royalty. In beauty and personal branding, she has produced photography and design for Crystal Clear and Joan Collins’ Timeless Beauty range.

Today

Experience made personal

Commercial campaigns, medical storytelling, events, portraits and workshops all benefit from that same calm eye and practical direction.
