For Oxhey
Photographing Oxhey businesses, from products to people
- What the session includes: Team portraits kept consistent from person to person, discreet event coverage and clean product shots, all edited and supplied ready to use online and in print.
- Studio or location: On location at your offices, shop or venue within about 20 miles, or in the Northwood studio.
- Distance from the studio: Measured in a straight line, the studio on The Broadway in Northwood is about 2 miles from Oxhey, and the drive is a little further.
- How to book: Ring or WhatsApp 07956 505383 during opening hours (Monday to Saturday 10:30 to 18:00, Sunday 13:00 to 18:00), or leave your details in the form below.
We arrive early enough to be ready before the first person is asked to stand anywhere, which is why the last face of the day matches the first one. Setting up in front of an audience wastes a morning that belongs to you.
You get files sized for the web and files sized for print, delivered together, so the same picture holds up on a phone screen and on a two-metre banner without being sent back to us. Anything wanted cropped differently, ask and it is done.

Kaushik took very lovely photos of us and our food product products and professional photos. He gave us ideas which we didn’t think about and executed each photo perfectly. He has helped us tremendously as his photographry vision has made our dreams come to light.
It was a pleasure working with Kaushik who managed to help me at short notice to provide official photos for professional use at very short notice and was able to support me whilst abroad. Thanks and would highly recommend their services.
I recently had a photography session here for my website, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The photographer was incredibly professional, calm, patient, and made me feel comfortable throughout the session. I absolutely love all of the photos, they exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for high-quality, professional photography
What we offer
Commercial photography in Oxhey
Matched staff portraits
Every face framed the same size and lit the same way, so a staff page looks deliberate.
Lighting that travels
Overheads off, our lighting on: no two-colour faces in a room with one window and warm bulbs.
Why choose us
Commercial photography for Oxhey and Watford businesses
Styling, props and the fiddly details are ours to manage, which leaves your staff free to keep serving customers while we work. Food and drink are photographed within minutes of leaving the kitchen, which means the running order is agreed with the chef rather than with the marketing team.
Finished files arrive in an online gallery, sized for both screen and print. For an event or launch, at your own premises or a hired room in Watford, we cover the speakers, the stands and the conversations in between.

Oxhey and Watford: the setting for a business shoot
Oxhey lies just south of Watford town centre, around Bushey station, and the entries below sketch the commercial surroundings a premises or team shoot there would work within. Follow the link under any entry to read the source it was written from.
- Watford town centre and Harlequin Watford. Watford town centre, north of Oxhey, is anchored by the glass-roofed Harlequin Watford shopping centre, opened in 1992, which houses branches including Apple, Marks & Spencer, Zara and Next. 1
- Watford Market. The Watford Local Plan describes Watford Market, at the north end of the town's Civic Core area, as a covered 'box park' of shops and eateries plus outdoor stalls on the open High Street. 2
- Bushey station, on the edge of Oxhey Village, is in fare zone 8 with London Overground trains on the Watford DC line and London Northwestern Railway services to London Euston and Watford Junction. 3
- Watford Business Park is a 30-hectare employment area on Greenhill Crescent, Caxton Way and Faraday Close, where a gateway scheme is adding 14 flexible commercial units aimed at sectors such as film, TV, life sciences and manufacturing. 4

Good to know
Commercial Photographer in Oxhey, FAQs
Yes, and more often at your own premises in Oxhey than at the studio, because moving a team costs more than moving a camera. Each person takes roughly five minutes once we are set up, so twelve people fit comfortably inside a morning. Larger than that and we split it over two visits rather than leaving the last person waiting until three in the afternoon.
Photographing one product range is a smaller job than a full day of brand, interiors and team pictures, and it is priced that way. Tell us where the images will be used and roughly how many products or people are involved, and a written quote follows.
Yes. Send a phone photograph of the room beforehand and we can say in advance what is needed: usually a wall with a couple of metres in front of it, a socket, and overhead lights that switch off. Premises in Oxhey are mostly small and converted, so low ceilings and a single window are the norm rather than the exception. Both are workable when we know first.
A note of where the pictures will appear, your brand guidelines if you have them, a rough shot list and a count of the products, dishes or people to be photographed. We then talk it through by phone, agree a running order that fits around your opening hours, and handle the setting up on the day.
The earlier the better if the pictures are tied to a launch, a new website or a seasonal menu. Smaller product or headshot jobs can often be fitted in at short notice, so send your dates and we will check the diary.
Serving Oxhey
A commercial photographer near Oxhey
Oxhey, in the WD19 postcode district, is close enough to the studio that travel to your premises there is not charged. It sits close to Bushey and Carpenders Park, which we cover too. A shoot can happen at the studio, at your own premises in WD19, or be split between the two when products suit the studio and people suit the office.
Oxhey is a suburb of Watford in the Oxhey ward of Watford Borough Council, taking in Oxhey Village around Bushey station and Oxhey Hall along Hampermill Lane, with Watford town centre and the Harlequin Watford shopping centre to the north. By rail, Bushey station serves Oxhey Village with London Overground trains on the Watford DC line and London Northwestern Railway services to London Euston and Watford Junction.

Oxhey is residential, on the edge of Watford, and that shapes commercial work here more than any single trade does. The premises are small: a converted ground floor, a single unit, a room at the back of a house that has become an office. Nobody has a lobby. A location day therefore begins by finding the one part of the building with three or four clear metres in front of a wall, and everyone walks to that spot rather than sitting where they normally sit. The lighting problem in a domestic-scale building is not darkness, it is disagreement. A window at one end and warm bulbs overhead means two faces in the same room come out different colours, and that is a fix you make in the room rather than afterwards. Switching the overheads off altogether is usually the fastest route to a set of portraits that agree with each other. Team pictures made this way have a second life. We record where the camera stood, its height and the distance to the wall, so somebody who joins in eight months can be photographed into the existing set instead of standing out on the staff page. Getting to Oxhey from Northwood is a drive, which means more equipment than a rail journey allows, and it means half a day on your premises stays half a day rather than turning into a logistics exercise. Interiors, the team and pictures of the work itself belong in one visit.

At the studio
A short drive from Oxhey to the Northwood studio
You will find us at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU, a short drive from Oxhey. Product and headshot sittings there are booked ahead, and prints, framing, restoration and scanning all stay in house. We are at the studio 10:30 to 18:00 Monday to Saturday and 13:00 to 18:00 on Sundays, so an Oxhey business can drop off product samples or talk through a shot list in person before the shoot day.
Commercial shoots for Oxhey businesses are photographed by Kaushik Bathia himself, FBIPP and FMPA, who opened the Northwood studio in 2001 and holds five European Kodak Gold Awards.
