Professional Photographer Leeds: Portfolio updates

 

Visit My Portfolio to see more

The variety of work which I have been doing over the last few months has been really excellent. I’ve met some great new clients and been involved with a lot of exciting and interesting photography projects.

They include Food photography for lifestyle uses & recipes pages online. Also cut out shots of food products for a major food retailers annual catalogue.

Product photography for online retailers ( Leather goods & soft furnishings ). This area inparticular has seen an increase as I find many new start ups are requiring professional photography to promote their products online but also need it at an affordable price.

As more and more people start up their own small business & website they require good product photography to help sell their items. It is so important to get the right kind of photography for your products or service, you may have a great product or service to sell but if your product photography does not do you any justice then this will inevitably have a negative effect on the appearance of your business to the customer.

I can offer a wealth of studio and location photography experience at an realistic price. Please contact me to discuss your photography project.


An example of my recent photography shoots can be seen below. Some of the images are for local businesses here in Yorkshire and some are for national & International retailers.

Working with national food brand to create new food photography

I have recently been working with Cauldron Foods and we've been working on a large series of images to cover the great variety of products within their range.
 
Starting with a selection of images creating different scenarios to emphasize the flavours and influences within each dish we set about creating the images for website and other marketing material.
 
Working closely with the client, advertising agency and food stylist, each image was fully researched and constructed so not only the food, but props, crockery and backgrounds reflected the finer points of the food photography brief.
 
These new images represent the back bone of the new Cauldron Foods website and facebook page etc.. and can also be seen in my food photography portfolio.
 
Working as a food photographer for the last 18 years has been a joy and I have worked with a large selection of clients from national brands such as cauldron foods, to smaller independent local producers in Leeds and across the Yorkshire region and UK.

New food photographs for social enterprise business.

Roasted Vegetables and couscous

Vegetarian pizza

Here are the shots from a recent shoot for a social enterprise business.

I have worked with this business over a number of years. They deliver cookery classes for beginners, and for their new website, we embarked upon a series of food images to illustrate the cookery classes and the recipes which will be carried out.

As a food photographer, one of the most important factors is to tell the story that's within the picture as quickly as possible, particularly in the retail or commercial sector or here when the brief was to see as much of the food as possible to enable the new cookery class pupil to see what is is they would be making when they enroll on the course.

Working in commercial photography in Leeds brings a great variety of work in front of my camera and food shoots are a real favorite ( well, who wouldn't want to work with food? )

Keeping one step ahead with commercial photography.

In recent weeks I have been involved with a multitude of clients and projects, working in studio and on location.

This mix of photography is very much welcomed and dealing with a different set of photographic puzzles is what commercial photography is all about.

A common thread through these projects for the clients was one of ” keeping one step ahead “

All of them realised that producing high quality commercial shots of their products was an integral part of their overall marketing plan.

We are often told we live in a 24/7 global village, blah, blah, blah, but actually for any business whether you are in Leeds or Los Angeles presenting your business website in a professional manner to your local audience is a vital element on how well your business website or brochure performs.

Another common element in my work has been the needs of the clients to keep the images on their website refreshed and up to date, when new product lines become available.

As a consumer you will know how interesting it is to visit a retail website that is updated on a regular basis with new products on show, new offers and discounts. Also how turned off we are, when a website seems to offering the same products, for the same costs with little or no offers visible.

Keeping your products looking attractive to existing and probably more importantly new customers is achievable only with professional commercial photography.

Commercial photographs that are used on your website or in your business brochure that do not convey the products or services that you offer in a professional manner will seriously degrade your offering to the potential customers who may be interested in doing business with you.

Keep them on board with professional photography.

Summer starts with a summery studio shoot.

Well at long last we seem to have some decent summery weather as I write this and in the last couple of weeks I had the great pleasure in working with a local artisan food business.

We carried out the Food Photography in studio for a few reasons, the main one being that you can never reply on the weather to do what you want just at the right time.

The new food product is Lassi ( a yogurt based drink ) which is an extension to a very successful product range by local food business http://www.indie-ices.co.uk/

The image shown here shows the product shot in a garden table setting.

Food & product photography is a growing sector, with many food businesses particularly here in the Yorkshire region starting up all the time.

The importance of presenting your products well is clearly an important factor to letting people know who you are, what your product looks like and the brand identity which you wish to communicate.

Even for a one person enterprise, if you are to develop your business online, with Twitter and Facebook & with your own website, positive & well presented images are a hugely important element.

I have shot food and product photography for the whole of my professional career, now in my 17th Year and can produce hard working images that you need to move your products forward at a cost which will not break the bank.
