Images are an important aspect in creating a dialogue between the customer and the business. A first glance at a brochure, display stand or website is a first impression that influences a potential customer. The images are vital in that first encounter. Time, money and energy spent on those images lasts for years and is of huge value to any business.

It is a working relationship between your vision and my creativity and technical skill that brings life to your marketing.

Equipped with the latest architectural lenses, including the Canon 17mm Tilt Shift, photographing architecture, either inside or out, can be done to meet the most demanding of clients requirements for lighting, coverage, and perspective control. The photography can capture large buildings with correct verticals, and combined with the best lighting to highlight specific features, or parts of the building, such as paving or exterior lighting.
Architectural Photography requires the most appropriate lighting, which may be full sun, soft from clouds, or even night time. Careful research and a site recce can be done as needed to plan a shoot with the best lighting.
Food needs careful handling and an eye for preparation, lighting, perspective, lens choice, and the creation of scenes from clean white backgrounds, to complicated table or kitchen settings. Lighting is particularly important as it can bring out all the colours and textures if done correctly, and make the food appealing.
Food photography shoots can be done on site at restaurants, hotels, or production premises, using portable studio lighting equipment usually consisting of studio flashes with large soft boxes and various reflectors to manipulate the light direction and softness. Less formal food shoots can be done using available window light, reflectors, with props and background available on the premises.
