Leicester PR, editorial and event photography

Leicester commercial, editorial, event and PR photography

Commercial, editorial, event and PR photography in Leicestershire – from a Leicestershire photographer.

We specialise in creative photography that gets your message across - Remember that good photography is one of the first things a prospective customer notices about your business - it's not a luxury.

Northlight Images is a local, Leicester company and as a member of the Federation of Small Businesses is keen to work with Leicestershire businesses, organisations, charities and social enterprises to promote and support local business and non-profit communities.

If you are an organisation or company based in Leicester or Leicestershire and are looking for a photographer to cover an event or promotional activity, or need photographs of your product or premises then why not stay local?

If you choose Northlight Images, we will only charge you for the time we spend taking and processing your photographs. We do not charge clients from within the Leicestershire border any additional travel expenses.

We are local, based in central Leicester, so are often available at short notice – especially for short jobs that we can squeeze in between other assignments. We are also able to deliver your finished images quicker – usually the day after the shoot – sometimes sooner (with limited travel time, we can be at our Mac processing your shots not sitting in a car making our way home).

We offer very attractive packages for charities and related fund raising activities in Leicester and Leicestershire.

Photographs convey your message instantly - use the best...

What will it cost
