Just wanted to say a big thankyou for all your work on this - you've been a superstar and I've shown a few people the photos internally, and everyone's guessing they've been stolen from John Lewis or other high end retailers! Thanks so much for these images - they look fantastic!. I love the lighting, the reflective surfaces, the clarity of the images and the composition - they look really stylish.
At Forever Creative we offer a full remote service studio. All shoots are carried out remotely meaning clients don't have to spend their time at the shoot, as well as paying for a photographer. You can then spend your time running your own business instead of learning to be a product photographer. All our photoshoots are carried out at our dedicated product photo studio, which has been developed as a lifestyle backdrop with period features.
If you're a surface pattern designer or illustrator many of your designs are applied to many different types of products. We've had quite a few clients asking for 'blanks' or designer's template images producing for them.
Of course you can buy off the peg stock images from a number of locations, but if you'd like images that are unique to only you, a very important factor in branding, particularly if you're trying to create difference to other similar businesses.The following three images were produced for one particular client who had greeting cards, mounted prints, and also framed prints as part of their product range.

Richard produces beautiful photos and interpreted my brief perfectly. Having never paid for a professional product shoot before I was a bit nervous and unsure. Richard suggested we start with an introductory shoot. I was impressed with the results which showed me what was possible. This gave me the confidence to hire Richard to shoot my whole product range.
We've been photographing beauty and apothecary products for quite some time as one of our very first shoots was to create lifestyle imagery for a traditional candlemaker. For more information on styling, who we've worked with & examples of shoots scroll down below the images.
When it comes to styling this is carefully crafted to accentuate the quality of your product and to portray your brand whether you would like a more organic feel, perhaps reflecting nature, and the ingredients of your products, to a more rustic or industrial theme.Perhaps a minimalist contemporary pared back approach would work for your products, feel which when combined with directional lighting can be used to curate an exclusive look.

Richard is fabulous to work with! He has a great understanding of product photography and always interprets my ideas perfectly. He makes the whole process as easy and cost effective as possible. Working with Richard saves me hours and therefore £s. I'm so glad I met him and can't thank him enough for all his hard work and support.

This was my first professional photo shoot with my products and Richard was fantastic. He asked questions to help understand what look I wanted to achieve and discussed different staging and lighting options. The resulting photographs exceeded all my expectations and have really enhanced my marketing material.

I am absolutely over the moon with my stationery shots from Richard. The service he provided was professional, quick and helpful. Richard instantly understood the style I was after and was able to tie in my brand colours of green and white throughout the pictures through cleaever use of styling and props. I could not be happier with the end results, and the quality of the images has helped me to gain business with high end wedding venues. I would 100% recommend to any business looking for a talented photographer and will definitely be going back to Richard in the future when I launch some new collections

Very very happy with the service and photos I have received from Richard at Forever Creative Photography. Richard has been fantastic the whole way through the process of photographing my products for my new website. I have since gone back to him for a couple of other projects and he was super helpful and offered a a variety of solutions to these new requests that I had and we were able to go forward with it. The results exceeded my expectations and I'm thrilled with all the images he has provided for me. I would not hesitate in recommending him and his company and have and will continue to use

I was absolutely blown away by the photos taken by Richard! The composition was incredible - it was exactly how I wanted my ceramic home ware and art pieces to be displayed. He captured the mood perfectly, and I felt as though he has represented my style and brand in every shot. Richard also wrapped each ceramic piece thoroughly for the transition back to my studio, so they all arrived in an immaculate condition. I received a professional service throughout and I highly recommend Forever Creative Photography to everybody.

Forever Creative Photography are great to deal with, and were thoroughly professional during the several photo sessions they've done for me. Richard (the owner) listens to my briefs and produces images are that are fresh and contemporary, and which represent Humblewood's products perfectly. The images have certainly improved the profile of the business and often attract admiring comments. I would recommend this company without hesitation.
