Skills & Capability

Good photography isn’t just about looking through the viewfinder and clicking!

There’s a whole range of specialist skills which are essential before, during and after the shot is taken. At S2, we’ve spent years perfecting those skills to ensure our clients get what they want – and more. And we work to budget. We are always cheaper than London photographers and usually better value than photographers in the north.

We understand creative conception and the importance of its fit into the strategy. We are used to working closely with designers to develop mood boards which ensure the shot you get is the one you wanted.

Many years of working for some of the country’s leading mail order, retail and furniture clients has honed our styling and set-building skills. We have a large and comprehensive stock of props and equipment which enables us to create everything from the simplest part room set to a whole 3-storey “house” in our large studio.

We also understand the different demands that are placed on photography by the requirements of its ultimate use. We have experience across all media channels – advertising, literature, websites, point-of-sale, outdoor. Whatever the need, we know what to do.

Our photographic skills are unsurpassed. We produce award-winning photography which we know works. To support us, we have a comprehensive range of state-of-the-art cameras, lighting and ancillary equipment to guarantee speed and efficiency.

These days, post-production is almost as important as the shot itself and we pride ourselves on our skills in this area.

But, above all, our key objective is to astound and confound our clients.
