This was probably one of the most challenging shoots we’ve done recently in terms of lighting - we had to work with nearly zero natural light as despite the gym having floor-to-ceiling windows, they were coated in a dark tint that almost made it look like night-time outside!

This is the final image without any editing - we’ll post the final version of the ad in the new year when the campaign goes live.

Thanks to model agency PHA for supplying two fantastic models at such short notice! (Wes Cotton and Michael Hagen).

High Contrast ventured into the streets this summer to shoot this range for a Chinese fashion manufacturer wishing to add an ‘English’ feel to their imagery.

The new service is the perfect way for hotels and restaurants around Manchester to recycle their waste and do a bit for the environment, as well as save some money.

The images will contribute to The Green Chef launch campaign along with promotional marketing literature, further PR events, web and press coverage and a telemarketing campaign.

We recently spent a delightfully regal day on location shooting for a new Manchester label. Helen has designed a truly decadent collection of womenswear, which will be launching this summer. In preparation for the launch of her new brand and new website, she required some high class editorial photography.

We were more than happy to get involved, enjoyed a cracking location shoot at the illustrious Hillbark Hotel based on the Wirral. The sun was blazing all day long which made shooting rather pleasant indeed. The Champagne and strawberries at lunch weren’t all that bad either! Here’s a sneek peek at some of the goings on at the shoot.
