Images of the Co Op distribution centre at junction 28.  It's an amazingly slick operation and as you can see an impressive building. I guess the photographs tell the story.  I use a specialist tilt shift lens for architectural work.  It's a prime lens and allows me to correct converging lines and is just increasingly sharp.  We also provide stunning drone photography and filming for the industrial and construction industry.

Matthew Jones Photography specialises in the construction and industrial sector. The gallery are some of the highlights from the last few months.

Matthew Jones Photography provides commercial photography throughout the United Kingdom. Matthew was recently on a shoot just north of Newcastle in the county of Northumberland.

Winter Location Shoot

Location photography in the middle of winter can be a bit hit and miss due the the weather. On this occasion it was a lovely sunny day, however in January in the North East the sun is very low in the sky. This poses all sorts of challenges and will dictate to some extent the look and feel of the shoot. Location lighting and getting the sun in the right place are just two of the techniques a commercial photographer can use to get the right look and feel.

Industrial and Construction Photography

Our main specialism is construction photography and industrial photography. We have a lot of experience in this area and know how to overcome challenging manufacturing environments, what works well and how to get the best out of a shoot. There is a good commercial property photography case study here.

Before the shoot we discuss your requirements and brief. From this we can work out the best way to proceed and begin to develop a plan and framework for the shoot. This can be a detailed brief or a few lines of text and allows you to organise and prepare engineers, operatives and areas for the shoot, as well as deciding on any props and to work out time scales. This is a good way to ensure you get all the photography you need. This is not alway possible though, particularly on construction projects and we also work to a general brief and provide a versatile range of shots that can be used on a website, print, social media and PR.

Engineering and manufacturing equipment and products are often large, expensive and heavy. Shooting industrial products on site is often the only practical choice.

Many industrial clients like to take advantage of having a commercial photographer on site and so arrange for additional photography such as headshots and PR shots to be taken at the same time. This is an efficient use of time and an effective way of building a solid visual marketing asset.

One of the reasons clients say they like working with us is because we are versatile and easy to work with.

We worked closely with FCM PR and Communications on the PR side. They bring their own specialisms and expertise to form a formidable team.

This photography was shot for Willshee's Waste and Recycling. They are a zero landfill waste and recycling business. The business is unrecognisable from the skip hire business Keith Willshee started with just one skip truck back in the 80s. Now a multi-million pound business that has just opened their third depot, it is still a family run business headed up by Keith's son Dean Willshee.

Industrial photography is one of our main business along with construction and architectural photography. If you are looking to hire an industrial photographer you may be interested in our commercial photography pricing page. We are transparent about our costs and appreciate this is an important factor.

For industrial photography shoots outdoors, we will bring a drone along and include still shots within our rates, so long as it's safe to do so. We produce stunning drone videos that will make make a great addition to your marketing armoury. Combing drone footage with your photography shoots is cost and time saving and something to consider.

For those looking to commission an Industrial Photographer there is information on the Industrial Photographer page

The Future of Waste Management in the 21st Century

It is clear we have reached and even gone beyond the point and where not acting on environmental issues is going to cost more then not acting. The industrial and manufacturing sectors look to suppliers to assist them in their environmental obligations. This shouldn't be a burden though and through innovation and investment from businesses such as Willshee's there is a productivity and efficiency pay off in addition to environmental benefits.

Willshee's represents the very best if modern waste management and waste recycling, which is one of the reasons the company is growing rapidly.  While I was shown around by the director Dean Willshee he told be of the remarkable story of how his father started with nothing and how it passed into his hands and grew into a multi million pound business, an incredible story.  

The company provides a range of services based on zero landfill and process domestic and industrial waste.
