Meet the Team
Giles Christopher
Photographer
I specialise in heritage photography -historic buildings, landmarks and artefacts - photographed with the technical rigour and eye for detail that only two decades in the industry can bring.
That precision has its roots in film and television. I began my career in the camera department, working on major productions including Memphis Belle, Aliens III, SpiceWorld and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, before moving into photography full-time.
It's an unusual grounding for a heritage photographer, but it's exactly what shapes my approach: careful, considered, and built around getting every technical detail right, whether I'm photographing a listed building, a museum artefact, a centuries-old landmark, or the team behind preserving them.
Over the past twenty years, that expertise has been recognised with a number of industry awards, including Commercial & Creative Photographer of the Year, Industrial/Architectural/Commercial/Advertising Photographer of the Year, and a category win at the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year awards. I'm also an accredited member of the Association of Photographers and AFHAP.
Alongside stills, I have a strong grounding in video, so heritage clients get a genuinely joined-up approach to documenting a site or collection, rather than piecing a project together from separate specialists.
In short: I'm a safe pair of hands for heritage photography, backed by two decades of technical expertise you can rely on.
Abi Cockroft
Shoot Producer
With a background in Film and TV production, Abi brings years of hands-on experience to keeping shoots organised, on schedule, and stress-free, from first enquiry through to final deliverables.
Fair warning: she asks a lot of questions. That's by design. Before any project begins, Abi takes the time to properly get to know you - how you work, your priorities, your requirements. The more she understands about a location or project upfront, the better she can plan around it, anticipating logistics and details before they become problems.
She's the engine room of the operation, the production management behind a shoot that runs smoothly. Abi believes planning is everything, with just enough flexibility built in for when things shift on the day.
Getting to know you properly is the first step. It's how she ensures every production runs like clockwork.
