Bleach Studio is headed up by myself, Phillip Mountfort. 

I am an experienced fashion and product photographer, who has worked with internationally recognised brands, musicians, and artists.

My experience in music production, videography, photography and design ultimately bleeds through into my creative process, giving me more of a producer/art director mindset to projects.

On an agency level, I have worked with and shot for brands/retailers delivering both high end ecommerce product photography, lifestyle campaign imagery, and been a part of projects at all stages of the pre-production process. A few brands I have worked with include Vans, Dr Martens, Timberland, Skechers, Subtype, Platypus Shoes, Hype DC and many more.

Since moving home from Melbourne to Mount Maunganui, I have looked to inject these experiences into local brands, whilst creating a collaborative photography studio that helps to elevate local photographers, musicians, artists, and businesses looking to grow creatively.

Below are some portfolio favourites from my agency years, and even further back, to give a small window into my personal shooting style.
