In a nutshell, we’re offering FREE professional photography or videos in order to help businesses get back up and running with beautiful imagery that can be used across social media and for marketing purposes.

The project is aimed at small businesses that may struggle, especially in the current climate, to justify spending money on professional photography but who have skills or products that they could swap instead.

TRADING IMAGES is a fresh way of working, a partnership where no money exchanges hands. It gives us an opportunity to keep doing the photography we love, while offering small businesses access to professional media that they need to connect to their customers on the web and across social media platforms.

It’s pretty simple – all we ask is for something in return, a benefit or perk you provide or a portion of the products you sell. The goods and services we then get to enjoy are a ray of sunshine for us - exposing us to new and exciting products and opportunities during these unsettling times, while you get a set of professional, edited Instagram-ready images or films that are yours to keep and use as you like.

Basically… something for something… We trade our services/business passion for yours, and together we help each other out. It feels like the right way forward in these crazy times.

All our projects are taken on a case-by-case basis; please don't worry that what you have to offer is too small – or too big! While we wouldn't expect to be given a campervan in exchange for some photos, perhaps we can borrow it for a weekend? As a family, we have a wide variety of interests, so it's very likely that one of us would find joy in whatever you have to offer.

So please get in touch, pick up the phone, drop us an email, DM us with your ideas. We treat each project as a partnership and will only undertake the work if both parties agree it is equally beneficial. Please see our case studies below for examples of our recent ventures to get a feel for what you can expect as part of this project.

We are full-time, award-winning, professional photographers (and videographers) and have run our own successful photography business for more than 10 years. We have a wealth of experience in delivering images that exactly meet client needs and will work with you through the whole process, starting with identifying what imagery best suits your current requirements.

Next, we will plan a mutually convenient time and place for the shoot, after deciding how best to show off your product. This may be in our studio against a plain background, or as lifestyle shots using the many different settings available to us at home, or out on location in the glorious countryside on our doorstep.
We will then edit and deliver the final images or film to you, ready to go!
