Education

Working with young people to produce dynamic and believable photography. Capturing energy, enthusiasm, engagement and empathy.
The process often involves setting a scene, placing the subjects into that scene and allowing the scene to play out. Knowing how much direction to inject without things looking fake or contrived is a skill Ashley has been perfecting over many years. It’s a delicate balance when you’re working with self conscious adolescents.

“I first discovered Ashley via a Google search and I now feel like I hit the jackpot!”

I first discovered Ashley via a Google search and I now feel like I hit the jackpot! Having just completed our second project together in under a year, I can honestly say it’s an absolute pleasure to work with him.

Ashley joined Texthelp’s marketing team for a shoot across Midlothian schools last June. He recently travelled with us to Sutton for one week, to help us capture photography for a second customer case study.

On both projects, he instantly understood the brief and the photography and drone footage output has been outstanding. We now have a plethora of amazing real life photography from our customer sites to use across our marketing materials, removing the need to rely on stock imagery.

One of the best things about Ashley is that he builds an excellent rapport with people. As he captured our product users across our customer sites, he was able to put every person at ease whilst having their photo taken. Not only this, he quietly worked behind the scenes on our video shoots to capture candid photos and lifestyle imagery.

We’ve received many compliments from our customers about how professional and pleasant Ashley is to work with. We at Texthelp couldn’t agree more!
