The For Business Portfolio comprises individual staff and Team portraits, Event Coverage and Product/Service Photography.

The creation and delivery of professional, high impact images will support your internal and external communications – whether you are targeting new customers, retaining existing customers, boosting staff engagement or increasing awareness. Your images can be used in any combination of your chosen media mix – be it PR, advertising, brochures, company reports, intranet/extranet/web, internal/external newsletters, direct mail or displays in your entrance hall or offices. Images can be tailored for specific occasions or ready available for short notice PR opportunities.

Staff portraits, Event Coverage and Product Photography form the core of the For Business portfolio offering.

How often do you look in a conference programme or Annual Report and see pictures of Senior Management that fail to convey the company’s values or reputation? Staff portraits that project the right image of the company play an important part in the business’s positioning and can reinforce brand values.

A well-composed, consistent set of head and shoulders portraits of your team members displayed in your offices transmits a positive, people-centric message to customers and suppliers. The portraits are also readily available for your website, conference brochures or for wider PR purposes. For impact and consistency staff portraits tend to be most effective with a contemporary white or black background.

Alternatively, or in addition, photographs taken in an environmental setting - in the office or location of your choice - can add a touch of inspiration to your brochureware or office environment. Likewise team photos or photos celebrating success such as awards or prizes can boost staff motivation and confidence, recognising achievement and excellence.

Events covered include conferences, customer seminars, team-building events, fund-raising activities, product launches and award ceremonies. Images captured at these events help leverage the success of the activity - building relationships with customers and suppliers in future communications with them; building internal recognition on your intranet; winning new customers by demonstrating your success or approach.

Images taken would include a series of portraits and reportage as agreed at the preliminary client discussion.

Images are supplied framed ready for display on your premises or as digital files for use on your intranet, extranet, web site or other communications media, or by your PR agency.

Lucy provides high impact product and service images across a wide range of industry sectors and organisations. The nature of the images will be driven by your portfolio, branding and positioning.

Lucy’s product photography concentrates on capturing key attributes of the product in creative, exciting and effective ways.

The less tangible offering of a Service Industry may be effectively captured through carefully posed interactive portraiture shots or reportage style images in carefully selected indoor and outdoor settings, for instance and depending on the nature of your business – images of architectural and natural environments – stately homes, hotels, restaurants, shops and offices.

Black and white or colour digital images are processed and printed at one of the leading professional laboratories in the country, and presented in an exciting range of contemporary display products.
