FINE art and commercial photographer Keith Moss has won three contracts worth more than £2,000.

The deals have helped contribute to the expansion of his gallery business, which he runs with his wife, Pat, in Brotton, near Saltburn, east Cleveland.

The first contract saw Mr Moss working with Manchester food wholesaler, Nuttalls, which asked him to photograph some of its products for a 16-page company brochure.

He was also commissioned by Proudfoot Supermarkets, in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, to compile a range of images for the new company brochure and Food and Drink magazine.

The third contract saw Mr Moss photographing a range of diesel engine images for Automotive Magazine, in London.

Mr Moss said: "The gallery has gone from strength to strength in the past year and working in the North-East is what I am really passionate about.

"However, it is always exciting when national companies get in touch and ask about my work.

"The three recent commercial projects vary quite dramatically from my fine art and wedding work, but it is these that are enabling Pat and I to expand our gallery in Brotton and work in the area that we love the most."

Mr Moss, who has worked for Vogue magazine, Unilever and Wella, opened his gallery in May last year.

The site recently underwent a £10,000 expansion and Mr Moss has expanded the services he offers to include contemporary wedding photography and portraits.
