What is corporate & commercial photography?

It’s imagery designed to strengthen your brand’s credibility and market position. This includes everything from professional headshots and team group shots to product photography and architectural documentation.

The focus is on creating visuals that reflect your company’s values, quality, and ethos – whether for internal communications, marketing campaigns, or stakeholder reports.

Why strong corporate photography matters

  1. Build trust from first glance so that you can convert more leads, win stakeholder buy-in, and portray professionalism

  2. Strengthen brand consistency so that you can align visuals across website, reports, marketing & communications

  3. Showcase your assets and people so that you can articulate what makes your business unique

  4. Elevate your internal & external communications so that you can engage audiences with clarity and impact

My approach

  • Combining a documentary eye with commercial savvy, I focus on authenticity meets polish: Natural expressions in headshots, dynamic team interactions, and products shown in their best light.

  • Tailored to your brand: Colours, lighting, and compositions align with your existing visual identity.

  • Detail-driven storytelling: From the texture of a product to the energy of a workspace, every element matters.

  • Efficiency: Minimal disruption to your workflow, flexible scheduling for busy teams.

“Mike is a fantastic photographer. I’ve worked with him and also had the pleasure of being photographed by him. He is highly professional, yet warm and easygoing, which makes the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable.

Not only is he a pleasure to work with, but his photography, and his photographer’s eye, are outstanding. His attention to the finest details and his creativity are always at the forefront of his work. I couldn’t recommend Mike highly enough.”
