Photography for Deals
With more than 25 years' experience in City of London photography — working with banks, stockbrokers, private equity firms, and their advisers (lawyers, accountants, and public relations consultants), we understand the intense pressures surrounding major deals.
Whether it’s a merger or acquisition, fundraising, stock market listing, or other significant transaction, pressure on time means we often have just one opportunity to photograph the key executives involved.
Working closely with the communications team, we ensure the shoot runs efficiently and smoothly, using our light touch and good humour to ease tension and ensure the resulting images convey professionalism, confidence, and optimism about the future.
Flexibility
Gathering all the principals working on a deal is rarely straightforward. From experience, there will almost certainly be cancellations, rescheduling, and requests for early morning, late evening, or even weekend sessions — including Sundays. Whatever the circumstances, we do whatever it takes to get the job done.
Location Shooting
We bring our portable studio on location, often to one of the advisers’ offices in the Square Mile, and work seamlessly with clients to ensure everything runs like clockwork on photography day.
Despite the inevitable tension surrounding a City deal, we make sure each person feels relaxed, confident and at ease in front of the camera, and will take as much time is necessary to achieve the results needed.
Maximum Efficiency
When photographers are booked, it usually signals that the deal is nearly ready to sign and a public announcement is imminent. Our experience with same-day/next-day image processing — including professional retouching where required — is highly valued by our clients who expect the same professionalism and flawless execution under pressure they are bringing to the deal.
