Recent Work: Vietnam
Our recent trip to Vietnam took us from the tranquil beauty of Halong Bay to the vibrant chaos of Hanoi’s old quarter. Along the way, we photographed limestone karsts rising from the water, lantern-lit alleyways in Hoi An, and the everyday rhythms of life in both rural villages and urban streets. The result is a diverse portfolio that reflects the country’s layered beauty, colour, and culture.

Frequently Asked Questions
We cover a wide range of commercial and editorial photography: corporate headshots and team portraits, event and conference photography, product and brand photography, and behind-the-scenes stills alongside video productions. If you’re not sure which category fits your project, just describe what you need — we’ll work it out together.
Both. We’re equally comfortable working on location — your office, an event venue, an outdoor space — or in a controlled studio environment. Location shoots are often preferable for corporate and event work as they place people in their natural context. We bring all the lighting and equipment needed to produce clean, professional results wherever we shoot.
That depends on the brief and the length of the shoot. For a half-day headshot session with a small team you might receive 3–5 selects per person; a full-day event shoot could deliver 80–150 edited images. We agree quantities at the brief stage so you always know what to expect, and we’ll flag if the brief suggests a different number would serve you better.
We shoot in RAW for maximum quality and edit flexibility, but we deliver retouched JPEGs (and TIFFs or PNGs where needed) as the finished product. Unedited RAW files are not typically supplied — an unprocessed RAW is not a finished photograph. If you have a specific technical requirement, let us know and we’ll discuss what’s possible.
Standard turnaround is 5–10 working days. For event work with a large volume of selects, allow up to two weeks. If you need images faster — for a press release or same-week campaign — ask us about rush delivery when you book. We can usually accommodate tight deadlines with advance notice.
Yes, and it’s often the most efficient approach. Combining a photography and video shoot in a single production day reduces location costs, minimises disruption for your team or subjects, and ensures visual consistency across both formats. We regularly run hybrid shoots — it’s worth factoring in from the start if you need both.
Yes. All images are delivered with full commercial usage rights for your organisation — website, print, social media, advertising, and internal use. Usage rights are agreed at brief stage. If you need extended licensing for third-party advertising campaigns or syndication, let us know and we’ll include the appropriate terms.
Get in touch with a brief outline of what you’re looking for — type of shoot, number of people or products, preferred dates, and any specific requirements. We’ll come back with a quote and availability. The best first step is a quick conversation: get in touch and we’ll take it from there.
