Interior photography · Cambridge
Spaces shown
as they really are.
Interior and architectural photography for offices, hotels, restaurants, venues, architects and designers. Straight lines, true colour and natural light, so what people see in the photographs is what they find when they arrive.

Why interiors are different
Honest pictures
of real spaces.
Interiors are unforgiving. A converging wall, a green cast from a fluorescent tube or a lens that makes a box room look like a ballroom, and the viewer stops trusting the picture.
So I work from a tripod with the verticals kept straight. I balance the daylight from the windows with the lights inside, blending exposures by hand so the view outside is still there. I choose lenses that give an honest sense of size. I do not add furniture, change the view or invent a sky.
How quotes work
By the time
the space needs.
A single space or small office usually takes one to two hours; a hotel, venue or finished architectural project usually needs half a day, and a full day covers several spaces or dusk exteriors. I quote from the brief and suggest the shortest option that covers it.
Your images are licensed for your own marketing, with credited sharing for project partners and press included. Travel across Cambridgeshire is included; further afield is quoted upfront. I am not VAT-registered, so the quote is the price.
How a shoot works
Planned around
the light.
- 01BriefWhich rooms or elevations, what the images are for and any deadline.
- 02TimingI check which way the rooms face and book the time of day that suits the light. Exteriors often look best at dusk, with the lights on inside.
- 03PreparationA one-page checklist: clear surfaces, working and matching bulbs, cables out of sight, cars moved from the front.
- 04On the dayRoom by room from a tripod, with small adjustments as I go, such as moving a chair or straightening a cushion.
Practical questions
Planning an interior shoot.
How long does an interior shoot take?
A single space or a small office usually takes one to two hours. A hotel, a venue or a finished architectural project usually needs half a day, especially with exteriors at dusk.
Do you photograph exteriors as well?
Yes. Elevations, courtyards and landscaping, and dusk images with the lights on inside. I plan the timing around which way the building faces.
How should we prepare the space?
The rooms should be clean and finished. I send a one-page checklist beforehand and make small adjustments on the day, but I am not a styling service. If an interior designer worked on the project, it is worth having them there.
Can you work around a hotel or restaurant that is open?
Yes. I usually start early, before guests or staff arrive, and we agree a room order in advance.
Can we share the images with our builder, suppliers or a magazine?
Yes, if you tell me at the start. Credited sharing with project partners and press is included in the licence at no extra cost.
How quickly are the images delivered?
A preview gallery within 48 hours, and the full edited set within 3 to 5 working days, on a private download link. Faster is possible: a 24-hour turnaround is achievable when a launch, a press release or a board meeting depends on it. Tell me the deadline when you enquire and I will confirm it in writing.
