We were recently commissioned to shoot various beautiful items of jewellery for a client, including some flagship designs, so we thought this would be a good opportunity to share with you how we strive for flawless results when called upon to really deliver….. needless to say the majority of product photography is not point-and-shoot ready (particularly when dealing […]
With the proliferation of products we shoot on white backgrounds for e-commerce sites such as Amazon and Notonthehighstreet, we love it when we get to exercise a little more creativity and flex our composition muscles. More and more clients are realising that style product photography can get you noticed in what can be a pretty […]
It’s pretty established in Product Photography that a clean white background puts the sole focus of an image on the item itself and, with some popular e-commerce sites such as Amazon actually requiring sellers present their goods in this fashion, we thought we’d share a quick and easy method for getting great results when shooting […]
Yaaaaay, another “Top 10 this or that….” blog post!! Ok, so the internet might be littered with them (Don’t get us started on our Top Ten “Top Ten” blog posts….), but that doesn’t mean they’re not occasionally useful and, since Product Photography would definitely be our specialist subject were there to be a nerdy photography version […]
A true success story of the e-commerce scene, notonthehighstreet.com was founded in 2006 from a kitchen table by award-winning entrepreneurs Holly Tucker and Sophie Cornish, and now employs hundreds to run an online marketplace for thousands of small creative businesses. It’s a hotbed of originality, quirkiness, craft and design and the UK’s number one curated marketplace. They carefully […]

Amazon and similar e-commerce sites are fantastic resources for both vendors and consumers and their meteoric rise in popularity over the last decade or so is testament to their efficacy in providing what the masses are after. With the shift away from the high street for that shopping buzz (or mere convenience), it’s become […]
Nowadays we tend to carry a light meter on every assignment. It provides an accurate measure of a scene’s exposure and even impresses the odd client who’s never seen one! (“What dark sorcery is this?”) Digital cameras now have their own in-built light meters (although not generally as accurate or nuanced as a dedicated hand-held version) […]
Health and fitness product giants Pharamacare recently asked us to shoot a range of products in their extensive portfolio. Bioglan have been a serious provider of quality vitamins, minerals and supplements for over 25 years and has established a strong reputation for unique formulations and first to market innovations. We’ve been in the photography racket for about the […]
We’ve been commissioned by our studio’s neighbouring business, Hartley Quinn Wilson on several occassions. They’ve asked us to shoot some of their stunningly crafted kitchens, bathrooms and bespoke joinery and we’ve been more than happy to oblige, spending several hours shooting in some beautiful homes in the local area and usually being provided with tea and biscuits by the […]
