Our Services
ongoing photography support
An Associate of the Royal Photographic Society, Richard has provided professional photography for some of the UK's most recognised organisations. Retainer packages are available monthly or annually, tailored to your needs.
Workshops for Teams and Organisations
Led by experienced practitioners, our workshops are designed for teams and organisations looking to learn something new, connect, and collaborate in a creative setting.
Our core beliefs
Art can be extremely therapeutic and has been shown to help with depression and anxiety, as well as helping to alleviate the symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Mental well-being is so very important, and we believe that everyone should have easy access to art therapy.
The society also believes in making art as inclusive and accessible as possible. We aim to offer paid residencies to artists, host art workshops at schools, colleges and universities as well as providing bursaries and grants to recent graduates to help kick-start their art careers.
Support for communities
Through our community outreach, we also support a range of other non-profit organisations by providing free photography, videography and podcast recording services.
Some of the non-profits we have supported include:
Sutton United Disability FC
North Hertfordshire Pride
Phoenix Community Housing
Brentford Community Boathouse
The National Association for Children of Alcoholics
