Working as a corporate and event photographer in the city of London, James does the majority of his shoots on location, so he would travel to wherever your office is situated or where your event location is. He works to a hourly, half day or full day rates, but the longer the photography session, the more cost effective it becomes. James has a portable studio that he can set up within your meeting room or in a general space on your office floor. There is no extra charge for any travel expenses for London photography shoots.

James is a great photographer and very nice to work with. He was able to adapt easily to our complex shoot setup and was very responsive to any changes and edits needed. He worked hard to fit in multiple headshots and group shots over several very busy days and the results are great. He also provided good value for money. Highly recommended.

James is always a huge pleasure to work with, this time over 3 days in out London and Leeds offices. James gives great direction and ensured all our staff felt very comfortable having their photos which can be daunting for some people. The photos are exactly what we had envisioned! Definitely recommend for corporate photos!

James was just fantastic. From the very outset he was very responsive and flexible, adapting to our complicated shot-list and last minute changes. On the night he was punctual, very friendly and professional and was able to manage the >500 people we had at the event in order to capture the diversity of shots we needed. We were delighted with the final photographs, which came to us the day after the event. We can't wait to continue working with him at our future events!

James perfectly captured my wedding in July 2017. He is amazing at getting natural candid shots and just understanding the environment and getting the most out us. He was engaging leading up to the wedding and we felt absolutely confident he would take amazing shots of our wedding. He even scoped out various locations for shots prior to the wedding - really went above and beyond. I would highly recommend James for your wedding or any event. His professional and friendly manner made him a welcome addition to our wedding day.

James is a superb photographer who helped out last minute on an outdoor team building event. There was no fuss or problems from first enquiry to his work on the day. We had great feedback from both the client and our staff as he worked his way through the teams. The imagery was well edited (especially for a particularly sunny day to compensate for exposure) and came back in abundance giving us plenty of marketing materials to work with. I will certainly be using James' services going forward and would recommend him to anyone.

I have been an admirer of James Gifford-Mead's photography for a number of years. He has a truly remarkable eye, as his body of work is testament to. I have had the privilege of seeing him photograph on a number of occasions, and his method can be described as patient, studied and unobtrusive, in addition to his professional and dedicated approach.
He has a particular talent for portraiture, both in capturing the essence of his subjects, but also in his timing of those fleeting moments of heightened emotion that elevate his work above the mainstream.

I hired James on behalf of a client for a business event. He took absolutely stunning photos that captured the event perfectly and we are thrilled. James was also highly professional, timely and organized, which was definitely a big plus seeing we were communicating overseas. Without a doubt, I would use James for any events/photo opps in London again. Thank you!
