INSIDE JOB: Commission for Elevate Property Group

Client: Elevate Property Group

Location: Birmingham

Website: https://elevatepropertygroup.co.uk/

So, in a new series of blog posts, I have decided to share some info about commissions that I am either currently working on or recent completed. The hope is that this will give you a little insight in to how I operate, how to overcome certain challenges and if you’re considering hiring me, a look at some of my commercial work. With that said, let’s get into it!

Elevate Property Group are a well established developer with office based in the beautiful St Paul’s Square area of Birmingham. I was contacted by Z3 Design on behalf of Elevate to help with imagery for marketing materials.

Without giving away too many details of Elevate’s latest venture, the brief was a fairly broad one. It required a selection of ‘standard’ Birmingham shots, including some well documented areas. However, there was also room for a few details here & there with a focus on architecture - not surprising from a property developer!

Communication with the design company turned out to be the key to this shoot! My first venture out was not the most succesful, not fully nailing the brief! However, after a brief telephone conversation and a bit of clarification, I felt far more confident. The ensuing images were far more ‘on point’ for the clients needs.

The shoot itself was a pleasure. I felt i managed to cover a lot of the city in a relatively short space of time to show many various aspects of our vibrant city. When you take the time to look around and look at the details of buildings, the variety of architecture on offer in Birmingham is astounding - but I digress.

With the client happy to sign off on the images - the job was complete. Even though jobs like this feel well within my capabilities, it still goes to show that communication is key and I was more than happy to go out on multiple occasions to make sure the client was receiving images that fitted their needs. The only ‘dampener’ was the weather but again, with some persistence, we managed to make the most of the little but of good weather that we got!
