Nearly every photo I take is used by clients on the web in some form.
Recent projects have included a government department, a property development company, a leading business school, a barristers chambers and an investment bank.

Creating photography for a website can be a difficult and challenging task. There are many factors to consider when planning a photography shoot for your website. Here are some tips to help you get started:
1. Plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time to prepare. Photography shoots can take longer than you think, so it’s important to start planning early.
2. Choose the right photographer. Not all photographers are created equal. Make sure to do your research and find a photographer who specialises in website photography.
3. Be clear about your vision. Before the shoot, sit down with the photographer and discuss your vision for the photos. This will help ensure that you get the results you’re looking for. The look of your photos needs to match your website and branding. For example: do you want a studio shot, or to use your office as a background. It might be worth writing a photography brief to clarify your thinking.
4. Be prepared to invest some money. Photography can be costly, but it’s important to remember that you get what you pay for. Investing in quality photography will pay off in the long run.
5. Consider the images you need to get. You may want to get people shot, images of your office, photos of marketing materials as well as capturing some of your activities and teams. Think about what you will use the images for so you get a good bank of images to use on your website and on social media and in presentations.
Following these tips, you’ll be on your way to getting beautiful photography for your new website.
I work with clients to get both of theses things right and create images which are exactly what’s required. If you’re a small company or contractor I’ll probably suggest you come to my studio and we create some professional photography in London. If you have more staff it will most likely be easier for me to visit your site and use your office to create a studio or to incorporate the work environment into the images.
Website photos are then edited to be the correct size for your needs, and I can create photos that have a similar look to the photos you already have if that’s what’s required.
I can turn photos around on the same day if needed, so if it’s urgent I can hand over the photos on a usb stick before the end of the day. You may want to select a few photos for editing.
In addition to clients’ own websites I also take photos for use on social media too.
