About
Peter Byrom is digitalCG, a Manchester based photographer using Pentax film and digital equipment. Self-taught and technically adept, this Lancashire lad hasn’t always carried a camera around. In fact the idea of wielding a camera never really occurred until his late twenties.
“I sort of fell into Photography…”
The technical and creative challenges of photography proved welcome distraction from some turbulence in life and, as things settled down again, Peter stuck with his SLR – the ‘distraction’ became an interest and later a real passion.
Now a Pentax Photo Gallery featured artist, Peter has a small professional portfolio alongside his ever-expanding collection of high quality images.
Though not actively marketed he remains open to potential projects and is equipped to offer a wide range of photographic services, from prints of stock images to event coverage, bespoke photoshoots and even photography tutorials.

Here are some of the people and organisations who have put their trust in digitalCG’s professional ability…
