the two ways brands work with us

studio hire only

book the daylight studio for a half-day, full-day or multi-day shoot and bring your own production team. you get the 1,600 sq ft space, 20+ skylights, three coloramas, hand painted backdrops, prop library, kitchen and changing area. every full-day booking includes a free bowens lighting kit. from £350 per day.

full production

we handle everything — brief-to-delivery. our in-house team includes photographers, videographers, stylists, mua bookers, art directors, producers and retouchers. we take briefs at any stage from a rough mood board to a fully-produced shoot list. content-day packages start from £750 with photographer, studio, light retouching and 15+ delivered images.

why a daylight studio matters for your brand

the light your product is shot in is the light your customer sees it in. flat artificial light flattens texture, kills fabric drape and makes skin tones look plasticky — the difference between an editorial-quality campaign image and a generic ecomm product shot. our 20+ original victorian skylights give your brand imagery the natural, directional light that makes products look premium, food look fresh, fabric look luxe and people look human. it's the reason our returning brands come back season after season.

content days for brands

planning a season of social content, an ecommerce refresh or a launch capsule? our content-day packages are built for high-volume shoot days. we deliver 15–40+ finished images from a single shoot day at the studio, with photographer, stylist and light retouching bundled in from £750. multi-day content sprints (2–5 days) are available at reduced day rates. get in touch with a brief and we'll come back with a tailored quote.

· common questions

frequently asked.

who owns the images and rights?
you do. we deliver all imagery with full commercial usage rights for use across your brand's owned, earned and paid channels. we retain the right to use imagery in our portfolio and social channels unless you specifically request otherwise — happy to sign a nda or embargo images until a launch date if needed.
what's your typical turnaround for brand work?
5 business days for photography, 7–10 for video, 48 hours for headshots. rush turnaround (24–48h) is available on request for a small surcharge — flag it when you brief us and we'll build the schedule around it.
can you shoot on location as well as in-studio?
yes — we shoot in-studio and on location across london and the rest of the uk. a lot of brand campaigns work best as a hybrid: hero campaign images in the daylight studio, environmental / on-location content shot separately. we can handle both from a single production plan.
do you work with pr and marketing agencies?
yes — see our for-agencies page. we're set up to plug into an existing agency-led production or run the shoot end-to-end. either way we're flexible with brand guidelines, shot lists, retouching briefs and rush timelines.
can we hold the studio exclusively for a brand campaign?
yes — the studio is single-hire (we don't run parallel shoots), so every booking is exclusive by default. no shared space, no other clients coming through the door during your shoot day.
