Commercial photography at Richmond upon Thames premises, planned from Northwood HA6 · free consultation
Richmond upon Thames and nearby
A morning generally covers a team of ten plus a handful of room frames. People come down in ones and twos so the business keeps running, and everybody stands in the same spot, at the same distance, under the same light.
Usage for your own website, print and press comes with the pictures. Files arrive in two sizes, and the lighting details are noted down, so the same setup can be rebuilt on a later visit without anybody having to guess at it.

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.
Thank you for the photos taken for my son's lookbook. They are fantastic!

What we offer
Team portraits taken one after another against a single travelling background, so the page holds together.
Interiors photographed with our own lighting rather than whatever the ceiling happens to hold.
Riverside and parkland settings used where the address is part of what the business is selling.
Local and experienced
For a large team we fix one lighting setup in a spare room and work from a booking sheet, so people arrive at their slot and are back at their desks within minutes.
Each file is delivered at web and print resolution, cropped to the shapes your website and social templates use. Colour correction, retouching and background clean-up are part of the edit, so the files can go straight onto your site.

Every detail here is linked to the page it comes from. Travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote before you book.

Good to know
Yes. We work from your brand guidelines, matching background colour, light direction and styling. Send us a few images you already use, and new team or product photographs can be lit to sit beside them on your website and socials.
In most cases, yes. We agree a shot list beforehand and group items by size and finish, which lets one lighting setup carry the whole range through the day. A very large catalogue may be split over two visits, planned so your shop or office keeps trading around us.
Quickly. A launch date or a new website rarely waits, so we plan the edit around yours. The edited set usually follows within a few days as an online gallery, with every file in web and print sizes. Tell us if a deadline is tight, and an urgent edit can often be brought forward.
That depends on the scope: one product range on a single morning is a smaller job than a full brand, premises and team day. Tell us how you will use the images and how many products or people are involved, and we send back a clear, tailored quote.
Yes. Products are photographed on a pure white background to the requirements of Amazon, eBay and similar marketplaces, and for your own online shop. Each item is lit evenly and colour-checked, so a seller's listings stay consistent from the first product to the last.
Serving Richmond upon Thames
We photograph commercial sessions across London, and we travel to Richmond upon Thames (Greater London) from Northwood, about 12 miles away. It sits close to Kingston upon Thames and Hounslow, which we cover too.
The borough is the only one in London on both sides of the Thames, and Richmond's main shopping streets, George Street, The Quadrant and Hill Street, hold about 50,000 square metres of shops. For staff arriving by train, Richmond station in zone 4 is a western terminus of the District line and of the London Overground Mildmay line, with South Western Railway services too. The council itself is based at York House in Twickenham, and the borough was formed in 1965 from Richmond, Barnes and Twickenham.

A business trading on a riverside or parkland address is selling that address as much as its own work, and the address earns nothing at all unless it genuinely appears in the pictures. That makes a commercial booking three jobs rather than one: the people, the working rooms, and the view out of them. Those three want different exposures, and the third is the one that goes wrong. A room facing water has an enormous bright rectangle in one wall, so the space is lit like a stage from a single side: anything within a couple of paces of the glass is blazing, anything further in falls away, and the ceiling fittings add a second colour on top. Expose for the people and the river outside turns to white paper; expose for the river and the room goes to silhouette. We bring a source strong enough to overrule both, put it on the side the window is not, and let the glass become background rather than the light on the face. Access is settled before any of that. Which door cases can come through, and which hour the room is genuinely free, decide more about the day than the equipment does. Pictures of work in progress come first of all, before a room has been tidied into a showroom and before anybody has thought better of the shirt they put on that morning.

How it works
We travel to Richmond upon Thames from Northwood (about 12 miles) rather than asking you to travel to us. For an office, shop or event space in the borough we bring our own lights, backdrops and stands, so the room only needs to be free at the agreed hour.
Every commercial job for a Richmond business is lit and photographed by Kaushik Bathia himself, FBIPP and FMPA, who has worked from Northwood since 2001 and holds five European Kodak Gold Awards.
