Brand & Website Photography for Corbin & Co, Bournemouth

The Commission

Working within a business that never stands still

When Corbin & Co began planning a new website, they needed photography that showed the real business: the team, the office, the brand and the kind of environment their clients walk into. Their existing site used stock imagery. The brief was to replace all of it with photography specific to them.

The challenge is one that comes with any working business: phones ring, clients arrive, appointments run back to back. The shoot had to work around all of that, moving efficiently through the building without disrupting the day. That called for careful planning beforehand, followed by a calm, highly adaptable approach on the day, working naturally around staff calls, customer arrivals and the changing pace of the business.

This project is an example of my commercial lifestyle photography and personal branding photography work for businesses across Bournemouth and Dorset. For a full overview of commercial services, visit the commercial photography page.

The Brief

• Professional team headshots, consistent and natural rather than corporate or stiff
• Office lifestyle photography showing the team at work – conversations, phone calls, day-to-day activity
• Exterior photographs of the office in daylight
• Staged brand details including brochures, keys, boards and window cards
• Location-style PR imagery – handing over keys, showing a property
• Everything captured around a normal working day, without shutting the business down
