Small Brands & Businesses

I’m endlessly inspired by people who build things from scratch and it's an honour to try and document that energy. Here are a few of the brilliant Suffolk folk who I've been lucky to work with:

STEP 01

How I work:

 

 

 

We connect and plan the project

Tell me about your business

What do you want to portray?

What is the purpose of the shoot?

How will the images be used

STEP 02

 

Let's prepare

Share a Pinterest board of images you love, or send them to me on whatsapp

Decide where the shoot will take place

Plan what props you might bring

Do you need to find models or bring colleagues?

What will you wear?

We have a pre-shoot chat and I send a plan via email

STEP 03

 

The Photo Shoot

Firstly we spend some time getting comfortable in front of the camera

We follow the plan we made

We go off-piste if we need to!

We have fun

STEP 04
