Brand and marketing photography in Devon and Cornwall
A practical image library for websites, social media and campaigns





I create brand photography for businesses across Devon and Cornwall that need a stronger, more consistent set of images for their marketing. A shoot can cover the people behind the business, the places where work happens, products in use, processes, details and the wider customer experience.
Before the shoot, we will agree where the images need to work, from website banners and LinkedIn posts to brochures, press features and campaigns. That gives the session a clear purpose and creates a library that is easier to use across different channels.



More useful images, planned in one shoot
Many businesses rely on a small group of photographs long after they have stopped representing the team, workspace or services accurately. A planned brand shoot replaces those gaps with a coordinated set of current images, including wide compositions, portrait crops and detail shots for different layouts.
The number of final photographs depends on the length and complexity of the shoot. We will agree the priorities, likely coverage and delivery expectations before the day, rather than working to an arbitrary image count.
How a brand shoot works
A useful brand shoot starts with the marketing plan, not the camera. I will ask what the business needs to
communicate, who the audience is, which channels need new images and what content is already missing.
- Brief and intended uses: We identify the pages, campaigns and formats the photographs need to support.
- Shot list and preparation: People, locations, products, activities and practical requirements are organised before the day.
- Variety during the shoot: I create wider scenes, closer details and horizontal and vertical options where the brief requires them.
- Consistent delivery: The final photographs are selected and edited as one coherent set, then supplied in formats suited to the agreed uses.



What can be included in a brand shoot
- People and teams: Staff portraits, people at work and natural interactions with customers or colleagues.
- Workplaces and locations: Offices, workshops, hospitality spaces, outdoor locations and the environment around the business.
- Products and services in use: Images that show how something works, who it is for and how it fits into real life.
- Processes and details: Tools, materials, preparation, production and the small elements that help explain the work.
- Marketing formats: Wide website headers, portrait social crops, detail images and compositions with space for text where needed.



Photography and website planning
My wife and I also run Cornerstone Websites. When a project needs both new photography and a new or updated website, the two can be planned together so the shot list supports the layout, content and image formats from the start.
You can use either service independently. When they are combined, there is one joined-up plan for the photography, website and delivery of the finished assets, without separate suppliers working from different briefs.



When brand and product photography work together
Product photography shows an item clearly, accurately and consistently. Brand photography places it in context, showing how it is used, who it is for and how it fits into the wider business.
Planning both together creates a more complete set of images for ecommerce, websites, packaging, social media and campaigns.
