Commercial photography · London

Photography directed like an editorial.

The images a business uses say more than its copy does. We shoot photography that looks considered, because it is.

Every shoot is planned and directed: location, light, styling and a shot list tied to where the images will be used. You receive finished, retouched photographs ready for your site, your channels and your campaigns.

Selected work

Ellie Evelyn

Editorial, on location.

Role
Photo, video and growth
Sector
Personal brand

Brief

A personal brand depends on imagery that looks like the person on their best day, every time. Ellie wanted editorial photography and video she could build her channels around.

Approach

We shoot on location and direct each shoot as an editorial. Selects are made together through a private gallery, where she marks favourites and leaves notes on each frame.

Outcome

A set of finished editorial images and an ongoing photo, video and growth partnership.

Photography questions

  • Where do you shoot?

    Mostly on location in and around London, and in studio when the brief calls for it. We travel for the right project.

  • How many images will we receive?

    It is agreed before the shoot and depends on the brief. You choose your selects from a private gallery and we finish those.

  • Can we use the images anywhere?

    Usage is agreed up front and written into the quote, so you know exactly where the images can be used.

  • Can you film on the same day?

    Yes. Photo and video are often shot together, which keeps the look consistent and the cost down.
