Location Photography: Blackburn Youth Zone

Workhouse have been working closely with Blackburn Youth Zone since the plans to build a state of the art youth centre in the heart of Blackburn were announced. Workhouse are providing marketing for Blackburn Youth Zone and this includes our photography services. Recently we’ve been doing location photography for them which includes the photos below of the site mid build.

Product Photography: The Whalley Wine Shop

 
Workhouse has been shooting the images for The Whalley Wine Shop’s Christmas 2011 catalogue/brochure. We do a lot of product photography for The Whalley Wine Shop, having previously shot their Christmas and Summer brochures.
 
This year was as busy as ever, with a lot of products to shoot and a very quick turn around required – shooting and editing over 100 bottles in a matter of days in order to meet the deadlines.
 
We thrive on a challenge and love working to tight deadlines!
 

Wedding Fashion shoot: Mitton Hall.

 
On Monday 21st November we were asked to do a wedding fashion shoot for one of our clients, Mitton Hall’s wedding advertising campaign.
 
The wedding fashion shoot took place at Mitton Hall and featured two excellent models, James Hogg and Debora Pucci. The brief was to create a series of interesting and visually compelling images to promote the romantic side of Mitton Hall, to affluent young couples who are planning on getting married. The only restrictions as far as the brief were concerned was that the images must convey love and show the romance of the ‘old hall’ – and make potential brides and grooms want to choose Mitton Hall as the perfect venue for their special day.
 

Product Shots for Daniel Thwaites.

 
We’ve been doing a lot of product shots for Lancashire Brewery Daniel Thwaites over the past month.
 
The shots have ranged from the more simple single bottle shots through to more elaborate group shots.
 
We were asked by Thwaites to create a new style of product shots which could be used across the whole range of beers, ales and lagers that they produce. The shots needed to be simple, clean and elegant and were to be used across a variety of media.
 
Below are a selection of product shots from the shoot:

Portrait photography: Model Shoots.

Earlier this week Workhouse photography Andrew Woodhouse helped run a portrait night at local photography club, Preston Photographic Society. Andrew, who is an active member of the club was asked to provide guidance in setting up the lighting and to provide some help and support to some of the less experienced members who attended.
 
The shoot was a little different than the usual portrait nights at the club as the model Lisa Osaka Whitham was waring a series of gothic themed outfits.
 
It was decided that a black background would compliment the choice of model and outfits and the lighting consisted of a clamshell beauty set up combined with a couple of rim lights.
 
We even managed to persuade fellow club member and photographer Danny McCormick to model during an outfit change for Lisa.
 
Here’s a couple of images from the evening.

Portrait photography: Max Slater

Although we’ve been out on location a lot recently, shooting images for the Pleckgate prospectus amongst other things, we’ve still managed to get some studio time in. Workhouse Studios commercial photographer Andrew Woodhouse recently shot images of designer Graham Slater’s new son Max.

Graham and his wife Kat wanted some new, modern, contemporary images of Max as a baby. It was a great shoot and here’s a couple of our favourites.
