Commercial Photography

Nick has 25 years experience as commercial, editorial and advertising photographer; his work has graced the pages of countless magazines, books, billboards and brochures. People in their environment, animals and architecture are specialities, but he also enjoys making short films, working with drones, and in the studio with food, products, and more.

Our mission is to illustrate, promotoe and enhance your brand: selling your product is as important to us, as it is to you. Let us draw your attention to our video work too - arguably now more important as a medium, than photography.

Let us delight you with some of our work:

Portrait

Portraits for Magazines, Commercial and Private clients

Portraits or 'Head Shots' are critical to projecting brands and your key staff; an insight for customers into the people they are dealing with and useful for publicity too.
Equally they can be stressful for the subject. We understand the stress involved and take the time to give people emotional space; to be comfortable and happy with their experience.

Happy people make good portraits.

Mark's Bread

Mark's Bread in Bedminster, South Bristol, has become an institution. Everything they produce is organic and hand-made on the premises, with real passion. They make their own croissants, sausage rolls from scratch, even the jam for their pastries.

This is is a short film we made, showing how Mark's create their bread:

The film was shot by us on a Sony PMW-F5 camera and edited in Final Cut Pro X. The voice-over was recorded separately, in the studio, the Blackbird on location, in Bristol. The music was created by Mark's son who is a composer and sound designer

Horse Tales

John Boyd textiles manufacture an almost unique product - Horse hair fabric.

Used on chairs and walls in some of the finest buildings in the UK, Europe and beyond, this traditional fabric is still produced on unique looms, built in a local Somerset town, and now over 150 years old.

The production process is a labour of love and it shows in the people that work in a factory that has changed little in a hundred years.

The narrative is by the workers who produce the fabric. Do you think it adds or detracts from the film?

Horse Tales was judged winner of the 'Icon Films Non-fiction film under 8 minutes', judged by Icon Films, Aardman Animations (Wallace & Grommet) and other leading figures in the industry.

Music from Memory

Nicholas Maw's "Music of Memory" is an extremely challenging piece. Dimitiris Dekavallas, a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music and winner of the Ivor Mairants Guitar award, amongst others, makes it look very straightforward.
