Maldon & the Dengie PhotographerFor the team page, the season and the annual report.

Nearby, yes. For My Home Life England we spent three hours photographing residents and staff at Eastham Care Home in Woodham Ferrers, about 7 driving miles from Maldon, and delivered more than 500 photographs. We have also filmed Kesseler's showroom opening in Witham and community outreach days in Chelmsford. We have not yet published a commission from Maldon itself.

Yes. At Eastham Care Home we worked without flash, lighting the rooms with a continuous video light bounced off the ceiling, and photographed dancing, games and conversation as they happened. We agree consent and anyone who should not appear with the manager beforehand.

Yes. We set up in a meeting room, by a window or outside, spend a few minutes with each person and check the frames together. Anyone away that day can be photographed later with the same settings so the set still matches.

Yes, from the shore, quayside or pontoons with permission. We plan around tides, wind and light and keep a fallback date for the weather. Some locations need permission from the club, harbour authority or landowner, which we check when we plan the shoot. Photography from a boat would be scoped separately.

Yes. For Platinum Cleaning's summer party in Ipswich we covered two hours and delivered 300 edited photographs and a short film. We agree the must-have moments first, such as the presentations or the group photograph, and capture the rest naturally.

Yes. For Edd Callegari we photographed homes in Cavendish and Ipswich in Suffolk, including interiors, exteriors and drone views. For a wedding venue, hotel or holiday let we plan the rooms and views in advance and shoot in good light.

Photography starts at £249 for the first hour per photographer and £99 for each additional hour, with standard event processing included and detailed retouching at £49 per hour where agreed. Maldon is more than 25 driving miles from our base, so we charge estimated return driving time at £49 per hour instead of mileage. No VAT is currently added.

Usually within three to seven days, depending on the number of pictures and the retouching involved. Tell us when you book if you need a few earlier for a newsletter or a social post.

Yes. Photographs and video at the same time normally needs a photographer and a videographer, each at the standard operator rate. For films, see our Maldon video production page.
