About us
Ability
With over 20 years in
professional
photography, chances
are we’ll have seen a
similar problem before
and will know how to solve it!
Technology
As you can see, we
travel with quite a bit of
gear - and this is on light
equipment day....
Experience
...but even with the best
gear in the world, the
pictures would be
nothing without the
experience to know how
to light things and what
looks good.

About
Principal photographer Steve Dunning has been shooting
professionally since 1988.
In the early years this meant shooting
more industrial interiors than he cares
to remember, but it was brilliant
training in lighting- if you can make an
engineering factory look good you can
make anywhere look great! So there
were many years learning about
lighting on location in difficult
situations.
Then the fact that it was all shot on
film meant that attention to detail was
key - no “oh we’ll fix it in post
production” - not when scans cost £50
a time and a “powerful computer” had 64mb of ram.
These days shooting roomsets and interiors on digital to 60Mb files
is a doddle by comparison, and it means he can
get on with what he loves best - bringing great
lighting to beautiful rooms. Now the standing
around waiting is usually waiting for the goldfish to
swim into the right position!
