The ideal time to capture interior photography of a hotel is immediately after a newly completed fit-out or brand-new interior installation completion.

Photography on location with an eye for composition Location photography is always about compromise.

Metal work and lathe imagery I visited a local Eccles-based manufacturing unit recently and produced a set of images from one of their soon-to-be retiring professional machinists.

Photography in Manchester is always risky in terms of weather. You book a shoot and cross your fingers, hoping for good weather.

We received a product photography commission from an online retailer of the trial frames by Sea3.

iPhone pics are brilliant quality right? And a lot cheaper than hiring a specialist construction professional photographer, so why bother? Whilst, of course, I’m biased, there’s a strong case why you shouldn’t be delegating photography to your site team or to the person in the office who’s a keen amateur. The fact is, if you […]
Is this something you do as routine with your projects?

Behind the scenes with Continental Tyres It's cold, damp, typical mid-December day in the UK and we're stood in the middle of a fallow field wondering if the weather forecaster is going to right for once and the threatening rain is to blow through.

Processing your way out of under-exposure It's a pretty interesting life as a photographer.

How to build a 'Hero' shot. So, first of all, you will need to know what a 'Hero' shot is. And it is kind of a general term used by the industry to say it is a shot, that is absolutely all about one category or is a primary image to be used in someones marketing. It's […]
