What Chelmsford businesses come to us for

What's Holding You Back

Chelmsford has more independents per street than most Essex towns, and most of them look the same online. A Moulsham Street restaurant with three dark photos. A Springfield Business Park firm with a team page from the year they moved in. In a city this crowded, that is how a customer picks the place next door.

What we deliver

We are based in Chelmsford, so shoots here are quick to book and easy to add to. Product, food, brand and lifestyle, and event coverage, shot on site, edited and delivered in the sizes each channel needs. Half days work well for a single location, full days for a business with more than one.

The Result

You come away with a library that carries the website, Google listing, social and print for months. Food that looks like what arrives at the table. Product that holds up next to national competitors. People and premises that match the reputation. Enquiries start coming from customers who have already seen the standard.

Chelmsford commercial photographer

Chelmsford is KJW Media's home. The independent food scene runs along Moulsham Street, the bigger names sit around Bond Street and High Chelmer, and the professional firms cluster near the station and Victoria Road. Springfield Business Park and Waterhouse Lane hold the engineering and manufacturing base, with the Teledyne site carrying on the Marconi tradition. Hylands House, Chelmsford City Racecourse at Great Leighs and the county cricket ground bring the events trade, and Anglia Ruskin's campus sits by the river.

Trott & Whinny
Food Photography

Kian’s work for my catering business, Trott & Whinny Ltd, has been nothing short of transformative. From the start of our partnership, Kian interpreted my vision for our marketing perfectly. Thanks to Kian, our brand imagery looks elevated, professional, and so unique. I can’t wait for our next project together!

STAG Solar
Drone / Videography / Photography

We have engaged with KJW media for a number of drone based projects and have found Kian highly responsive. We have typically engaged Kian with a concept and he has been proactive in brain storming with us and making creative suggestions. Then once he has recorded the footage agreed we have found him patient and interested when we have requested edits and adaptions, implementing these quickly. Like us he is clearly interested in his trade and craft and this makes him a great person to collaborate with. We feel KJW's pricing makes their services very accessible, hence our using them on multiple occasions this year alone. Well worth asking for a quote as you may be surprised.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you based in Chelmsford?

Yes. Chelmsford is home, so there is no travel to price in and short-notice shoots are easier here than anywhere else we cover. Half days suit a single location and we can usually fit a small job in around a bigger one. Videography in Chelmsford runs from the same base.

What does a Chelmsford shoot include?

The four that come up most are product, food, brand and lifestyle, and event coverage. Restaurants take food and brand. Manufacturers on the estates take product. Professional firms usually start with headshots and premises, then add a brand set later.

How is photography priced?

Per project. Shoot length, the number of edited images, whether styling is needed and the licence you want all go into one quote. You approve it before the date goes in the diary, and there is nothing added afterwards.

How quickly do we get the images?

Selects come over within a few days so you can choose. Editing runs from there. A menu refresh is quicker than a full brand library, so the delivery date is agreed at booking rather than promised before we know the scope.

Which nearby areas do you also cover?

Writtle, Great Baddow, Springfield, Moulsham, Galleywood and Broomfield are all inside the city, and Boreham, Danbury and Sandon are minutes out. A business with sites across two or three of them can usually be covered in one day.

Do you also offer video, drone and social?

Yes. Videography in Chelmsford, drone filming in Chelmsford and social media management in Chelmsford all run from the same studio, so one brief can cover all four without repeating the planning.
