Your Brand + Relationship
Photography that keeps up with your business.
Your Brand gives you the photography you need today. But your business changes throughout the year, and your photography should change with it too.
Rather than a new commission every time you need new imagery, work with us throughout the year.
We plan your photography around what your business actually needs, and you pay monthly.
YOUR BUSINESS DOESN'T STAND STILL.
You launch things - You meet clients. - You recruit people.
You run events - You post on LinkedIn - You change services.
You update your website - You speak at conferences - You win awards
And the photographs you needed six months ago may not be the photographs you need now. Your photography needs change because your business changes.
MORE THAN A PHOTOGRAPHER, A PHOTOGRAPHY RELATIONSHIP
Rather than buying photographs one shoot at a time, you commit to an annual photography relationship. We get to know your business, your brand, your people and what you're trying to achieve. Then, throughout the year, we plan your photography around your priorities. You don't need to work out what photographs you need every time. That's part of our job.
Understand → Align → Plan → Photograph → Deliver → Repeat

How it works
One relationship. One annual BUDGET.
01 — We get to know your business
We talk about your business, your audience, your brand and what you're trying to achieve.
02 — We plan the year
We look at what's coming up and decide where photography will be most useful.
03 — We photograph
Your photography time is used where it makes sense, whether that's a planned content session, new headshots, an event, your team or something unexpected.
04 — You use the imagery
Your images are delivered ready for your website, social media, LinkedIn, marketing, PR and other business communications. We create the collection so you have the right images for the ways you actually communicate. Knowing you, we can develop your colour style over time.
05 — We do it again
As your business changes, your photography changes with it.
Why pay monthly
Because your photography needs don't happen once a year.
You might need a new headshot today.
Three months later, you launch something.
Then you recruit someone.
Then you hold an event.
Then you need photographs for a case study.
Then your website needs updating.
Instead of finding a photographer from scratch every time, you already have a photography relationship
One agreement. One monthly payment. Photography aligned with what's happening in your business.
The monthly price doesn't define the value of the photography. You're buying professional photography through an annual commitment, with the cost spread across twelve payments. The preferential rate reflects your 12-month commitment.
FAQ
I'M SHY OR AWKWARD IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. IS THAT A PROBLEM?
Not at all. Most people aren't used to having a camera pointed at them, and you don't need to know how to pose.
For working and lifestyle photography, our observational approach means you can concentrate on what you're doing while we watch, anticipate and photograph. You don't have to perform for the camera.
For portraits and headshots, we'll guide you through the process, but we keep things relaxed. A bit of conversation, a bit of humour and a photographer who understands people works better than asking you to 'look natural'.
Is this a subscription?
It's an annual photography commitment, paid either monthly across twelve payments or upfront. The commitment lets us plan your photography properly and offer preferential relationship pricing.
Do I have to use my photography time every month?
No. We plan the photography around your business rather than forcing you into a fixed monthly shoot.
What happens if my priorities change?
That's one reason the relationship exists. We can adapt the photography plan as your business and marketing priorities change.
Can the photography be used for events?
Yes, where appropriate. You can use your photography allocation for events, launches, conferences, networking and other business activities.
Can you photograph my team as well as me?
Yes. The relationship can cover individuals, teams, clients, your workplace and the wider people behind your business.
What happens at the end of the year?
We'll review what you've achieved, what imagery you've created and what your business needs next. If the relationship continues, we'll plan the next year around those priorities.
Can I just book a one off shoot?
Absolutely. One-off Brand photography remains available; see our 'Your Brand' page. The Relationship is designed for businesses that know they'll need photography regularly.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
It's one of the questions we're asked most often. We have a complete booklet to help prepare for both our planning call and the shoot itself. We've done this before, and we will help you through every step.
Where do you work?
I'm based on the Dorset/Hampshire border and work with businesses across Dorset, Hampshire and throughout the UK. Travel is included within an agreed local area. For shoots further afield, we'll agree mileage and any other travel costs with you before booking.
