This is quite a large album of recent corporate photographs, really just to give a sense of the range of styles and settings that can arise. What works for an investment bank probably won't convey what an independent record company is all about. Likewise, an international marketing division will have a different sense of identity from a Czech classical concert promoter. Budgets differ; intended usage varies.
I hope this selection broadens the scope of how 'corporate' photography is imagined to be, and inspires you to find the ideal style to suit your own enterprise.
Here's the first album I wanted to share, and I can think of no better way to start than Cesky Krumlov.
So near the Austrian and German borders that most of the town names here seem to emphasise the 'Cesky' bit, this town is a jewel of South Bohemia. It was described to me as Prague in miniature, but I found Venice, Florence and much more crammed into this wonderful place. It defies description, and so photographs come into their own.
I had planned to take just the digital, or even just a compact, but at the last moment I thought 'sod it, let's go the other way - I should have some fun with the Hasselblad'. I was so glad I did. The world looks different through a waist level finder....
Well, it's 2am, and I'm just sifting through the crew shots, and I thought I'd have a cup of tea and a break, and maybe play a little with one or two of the images. You don't mind, do you? You know; just kick back and forget about subtlety, authenticity and such like... ;-)

Light of Spirit - Becky Walsh Becky is psychic. Which is nice. Her experience is a long as it is wide, and she now gives psychic development courses, which come highly recommended.
Chris and Laura - The Tintagel Arms Honest to God, if you like live music and utter insanity (Christmas in July springs to mind) this is the best pub you will ever find. It's... the real deal. Go to Tintagel. Have a drink. You know it makes sense.
Nicolya Nicolya is bringing together all her creative, intuitive, spiritual and counseling skills to make groundbreaking moves in coaching and personal development

Rob Sawkins Rob's a great graphic designer, also jetting between Czechia and Britain. His is the passion that dare not spell its name: typography. Best not mention Helvetica.
