• Photography • commercial & editorial writing
Giles Babbidge Photography Ltd offers a comprehensive range of services covering all aspects of commercial and editorial photography and writing.
Whether it be a one-hour shoot or an event lasting several days, copy for your website or a full-length photo-feature, all assignments will happily be considered. With the emphasis always on working closely alongside each client, within the framework of a specified brief, each job undertaken is tailored specifically to the individual customer's needs and charged accordingly. There is no 'flat rate' which is applied to everyone regardless of their requirements; no two jobs are ever the same so why should the fees be?
There seems to be a myth floating around that the hiring of a professional photographer is a costly and time-consuming affair - in fact, the reality could not be further from the truth! The great majority of the most common photography requests (portraits, product shots, 'lifestyle' pictures etc) can be achieved within an hour, given some thoughtful planning.
These same theories apply to writing side of things, too. A brief meeting - in person or over the phone, whichever is most convenient - and perhaps an exchange of emails, is all it takes to get the 'raw material' on which to base your editorial. And if you also need photographs to illustrate your message? No problem - they can be fitted in at the same time or on a more suitable occasion, so as to cause as little disruption as possible.
The philosophy really is quite simple - 'why complicate matters?'
Decide what you want. Know why you need it. Plan when you need it. Then make it happen.
