Specialist education photographer and videographer with extensive experience capturing life inside UK schools, colleges, and universities

Education visual storytelling:

Capturing Educational Journeys & Passion Across the UK

From early years to adult education, I work with schools, academies, and colleges to capture the spirit of learning across all ages. Whether it’s a four-year-old in their first classroom, a sixth-form student preparing for the future, or an adult student, I create natural, engaging imagery that reflects your school’s or colleges values and daily life..

Private schools, residential schools, specialist schools and colleges

  • Private schools – I help private schools bring their values, culture, and academic excellence to life—ideal for prospectuses, websites, and ongoing student recruitment campaigns. Photography focuses on small class sizes, extracurricular opportunities, and the sense of community that makes each school unique.

  • Residential & boarding schools – Capturing life beyond the classroom is essential in residential schools. I create imagery that showcases boarding life—shared moments in common rooms, supportive house staff, evening routines, and weekend activities—helping prospective families feel reassured and emotionally connected.

  • Specialist schools – For schools supporting students with additional needs—whether SEN, behavioural, or therapeutic—my photography approach is sensitive, respectful, and natural. I focus on positive, engaged moments that highlight student development, staff expertise, and the safe, inclusive environment you offer.

  • Colleges – Working with further education colleges, I photograph older students in real learning environments—whether in classrooms, workshops, studios, or out on placements. These images are ideal for marketing vocational pathways, adult learning, higher education routes, and partnership programmes.

Ways we capture education photography

  • Campaign photography – From headline admissions campaigns to targeted recruitment drives, I take photographs with purpose. Working in collaboration, our award-winning campaign work has helped schools and colleges increase applications, strengthen brand presence, and connect with their ideal audiences—whether through bold advertising, social storytelling, or strategic print materials.

  • Classroom photography – I capture authentic, natural moments of students and teachers in action—fostering curiosity, collaboration, and creativity. These images highlight the daily rhythm of learning, the passion of your staff, and the individuality of each student, building a genuine picture of your educational environment.

  • Whole school & campus showcases – Whether it’s a small primary school or a large multi-building college campus, we bring the full experience to life. From playgrounds and sports fields to libraries, labs, and boarding houses, we create comprehensive visual portfolios that show off your facilities and the energy of your school community.

  • Special events & lectures – From guest speakers and award ceremonies to seasonal concerts and graduation days, we discreetly capture the standout moments that define your school’s calendar. These images are perfect for PR, newsletters, social media, and archiving your school’s most memorable milestones.
