For Maple Cross
We look round the premises before a single case is opened, set the order from what the daylight is doing at that hour, and take the rooms in that order.
Everyone photographed on the visit is lit the same way, so the finished set holds together on a website. Files come back at full size and in web-ready versions, against a shot list confirmed before we arrive. Where a room cannot be cleared, we photograph tight and light only the part that will land in the frame.

Pleasant and professional. I would highly recommend Kaushik photography. An excellent professional to work with. I was very pleased with the outcome of my product photographs - thank you!
Thank you for the photos taken for my son's lookbook. They are fantastic!
…I needed some photos done for my acting career and Kaushik came highly recommended. It was helpful to know he is very experienced in taking photos for this purpose and kindly advised me on what outfits to wear to produce the best photos. Kaushik was very patient, helpful and professional which made it very easy to feel relaxed and comfortable during the shoot.
What we offer
Commercial photography for businesses in and around Maple Cross, made at your own premises.
Staff portraits, interiors, stock and work in progress, all covered within one booked visit.
Bookings arranged around your trading hours, so the working part of the day is not tied up.
Local and experienced
Nothing on a commercial set is left to chance. Props, backgrounds and the order of work are settled beforehand so the shooting time is spent shooting. Crops are planned as we shoot, leaving each frame usable as a wide banner, a square post or a close product tile.
Files come edited and at full resolution, with versions cut for your website, shop, catalogue and social feeds. Sole traders and personal brands can book the same care: a mix of clean headshots, working shots and wider frames with room for text.

Recent work
Maple Cross has a designated business area east of the village, used by company offices for its motorway access, so an on-site shoot there would usually mean bringing our lights and backdrops into your own premises; the notes below set out the wider local setting. Every entry below, from the council offices on Northway to the M25 spur, links to the page it was taken from.

Good to know
Quickly. A launch date or a website going live rarely leaves room for waiting, so delivery is planned around it. Most sets are edited within a few days and delivered to an online gallery with web and print versions of every file. If yours is urgent, say so at booking and we will tell you honestly whether it can be brought forward.
Yes. We shoot on pure white to the standard Amazon, eBay and similar marketplaces ask for, and the same files work on your own shop. Each item is lit evenly and checked for colour, so a whole run of listings looks consistent.
Absolutely. Colour correction, retouching and background clean-up come as part of the job, so files are ready to upload when they arrive. Product frames have dust, marks and untidy backgrounds cleaned away, while staff headshots are only lightly retouched so people still look like themselves.
Yes. Whatever room it is held in, the job runs the same way: arrive before the doors open, find the angles that work with the light the room already has, and photograph speakers, audience and the details in between. Coming to Maple Cross by road off the A412 means lighting and stands travel in a vehicle that can be parked at the entrance, which is what makes a dim hall workable.
Generally, yes. We agree the running order before the day, so every item is lit and photographed to one standard in a single visit. A very large catalogue may be better split over two visits, which we would plan so your stockroom is disrupted as little as possible.
Serving Maple Cross
We take commercial bookings from across Hertfordshire, and a firm in the WD3 village of Maple Cross is well within reach of the studio. It sits close to Mill End and Sarratt, which we cover too. Product work can come to the Northwood studio, or we can bring lights to your offices in the business area east of the village.
Maple Cross is administered by Three Rivers District Council from Three Rivers House on Northway, Rickmansworth, and has a designated industrial and business area east of the village used by company offices. The M25 forms its western boundary, with a spur from junction 17 to Denham Way, the stretch of the A412 between Rickmansworth and Uxbridge, which is what gives offices there their motorway access. On Denham Way stands The Cross, a listed former inn with parts dating back to at least the 1700s, kept after local opposition stopped its demolition in 2010 and since converted into homes.

Commercial photography in a village this size is nearly always made at the address where the business already operates, and that puts the lighting problem first. Two sources fight each other inside almost any premises: daylight through the windows, which is cool and directional, and the lamps overhead, which are warmer and much flatter. A camera balanced for one of them makes the other look wrong, and the split shows worst on skin, where one half of a face goes green and the other goes orange. Raising the ISO settles nothing. It only makes a badly lit room brighter. What settles it is bringing one strong light in, matching it to whichever source will dominate the frame, and killing the other wherever a switch can be reached. Older fabric sharpens the problem. The Cross on Denham Way, a listed former inn with parts dating back to at least the 1700s, is the one building in the village with real age to it, and a room of that period admits far less daylight than a modern one, so an interior of that age is a lighting job rather than an available light job. Team pictures then need a discipline of their own. Everybody photographed on a visit should be shot at one lens, one distance and one light height, with those three numbers recorded, because the person who joins in six months has to slot into the same row without looking pasted on.

At the studio
For businesses in Maple Cross, the studio at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU is about 5 miles away, and staff coming by Tube can ride the Metropolitan line from Rickmansworth to Northwood Hills, the nearest station. Commercial sessions there are booked ahead, and printing, framing, restoration and scanning happen on the premises. If you would rather bring stock to us than have us come to your premises, the studio is open 10:30 to 18:00 Monday to Saturday and 13:00 to 18:00 on Sunday.
Commercial shoots are photographed by Kaushik Bathia FBIPP FMPA, who has run the Northwood studio since 2001 and holds five European Kodak Gold Awards.
