PALP - October 2025

Over two sessions we created a bank of images for the brand new PALP website and to support print catalogues, social media and marketing to stockists for their brand new line of design driven, natural world themed greeting cards and wrapping paper. This focus was on showcasing the colours accurately (using a fully colour calibrated workflow to maximise accurate colour reproduction), on showing the thickness and texture of the papers and on creating a cohesive graphical feel that fitted with the brand’s dynamic approach.

Mama’s Beeswax- April 2025

Following a highly successful launch period for their honey and beeswax products, and with excellent in-person sales at markets across the South of England, Mama’s Beeswax founder Helen wanted to up her online game and take the website from basic to brilliant with photos that aligned to the quality of the product.

Create a full set of product images to replace the existing ones on the Mama’s Beeswax website - to include lifestyle as well as simple but effective product images that can be used for a range of purposes including social media, blogs and print marketing. Stick to the existing brand style which is warm and earthy with a connected to nature feel that reflects the natural nature of the products.

Sophie’s Crochets - February 2025

Owner Sophie says

“Firstly my website looked unprofessional, untrustworthy and did not have a legitimate business feel before our session. Since having your photos and updating my website - visits, sales and visits from social media has been insane (website visits up 17% since the change of photos)
More than anything your photos gave me the tools to focus on my business and not have to worry about the 'Social media' aspect that I struggle with so often. You listened and spent time explaining and helping before during and after the shoot to make it a great experience.”
