Specialising as we do in product photography, at Photography Firm we sometimes get the chance to get a little bit… “meta”. We’re not talking selfies here (do you know how thick the selfie stick would have to be that could hold our camera/lens combos??!), but turning our viewfinders towards our close neighbours on Creativity Street: […]
As well as working our way through a constantly replenished slate of commissioned shoots, at Photography Firm we like to stay super-busy, so if we find ourselves with a little free time (there’s never much), we put ourselves back to work self-commissioning shoots intended for stock libraries (anything to avoid going to the gym!! – ahhhh, […]
World Kitchen recently booked us to capture their glorious, non-stick cookware creations for Amazon and our last blog post gave a little insight into the lifestyle photography portion of the job. However, it just wouldn’t be “Amazon” without a whole lot of white, so today we’ll elaborate a little on the keys to cutout success. We’ve shown […]
We were recently commissioned by World Kitchen to capture their gorgeously crafted kitchenware in both lifestyle photography and white background cutout fashion. We’ll shine a light on the latter style in our next post, but today we’ll give a little insight into our lifestyle shoot and edit. If you read our blog, you’ll already know we’re […]

Ok, so New Year’s Day swung around once again and with that hangover came the resolution to try harder to remain on the straight and narrow (if you make it to February, you’re doing ok…) Well Adobe have added a very handy feature to Lightroom to help you go straight….. at least as far as your […]
In an increasingly virtual world where Facebook LIKES and group invites might have replaced a good deal of one-on-one sentiment, it seems we’re still drawn to the gloriously tactile, especially personal experience afforded us by gorgeous stationery. Whether it’s scribbling our thoughts in a favourite bound diary or receiving an invitation on beautifully gilded card, there’s something inherently […]
Last week, we gave some tips on successful food and drink photography for NOTHS (Notonthehighstreet.com), an e commerce site which has absolutely thrived through its mission to bring creative, beautifully-designed, original and high-quality products to your doorstep at the click of a button. Unlike the signature white background approach favoured by online behemoth Amazon, NOTHS encourage […]
At Photography Firm we’re proud to say we’ve been at the snapping game for the best part of 30 years now. We remember back when cameras were as big as houses and you needed horses to operate them and they only shot in sepia, and, and… well maybe not, but we’ve been doing it a […]
