Photography that serves a clear purpose
Commercial photography for brands who need images that move seamlessly across campaigns, websites and internal communications.
My emphasis is on photography that reflects brand intent, holds its shape across use cases, and supports clear, confident decision-making.
Highlights from recent projects
Photography services
Commercial campaigns
Campaign-led commercial photography designed to support launches, paid media, and high-visibility brand activity. Shot for consistency and longevity across digital and print.
Typically used for work that needs to hold up under scrutiny, including:
-
Campaign rollouts
-
Hero assets

Core brand imagery
Lifestyle & brand storytelling
Natural, human-centred photography that shows how your brand operates in the real world. People, process, and environment, without relying on staged, stock-style visuals.
Lifestyle photography is used for:
-
Websites
-
Recruitment
-
Brand communications
I can help you to visually communicate your brand story in the places where authenticity matters the most.
Ongoing content for web and social
Flexible image libraries created for regular use across:
-
Websites

Organic social

Paid channels
Gain photography assets that are built for repeatability and clear usage. Well suited to teams who need consistent content without reinventing the brief each time.
Process
I work with marketing teams, founders, and agencies who need photography to move smoothly through briefing, delivery, and sign-off.
Once I’ve received your brief, we’ll get aligned on your objectives, the intended usage of your final images, and any practical constraints of your project (e.g. timelines, location, budget).
Putting everything on the table at this stage means that when the camera comes out there are no surprises and we’re all working towards the same outcome.
I’ll share reference boards and shot lists through secure online tools, ensuring you can easily feed back in one centralised location (no messy email chains).
Your shoot day will be calm, focused, and well-structured - planned to make the most of our time together whilst retaining enough flexibility to respond to the realities of a live environment without losing sight of the brief.
Consistently edited, clearly organised images are provided via a secure online tool for you to review.
Final images are delivered in agreed formats and are ready for immediate use across campaigns, websites, and internal applications.
About
I’m Hannah Shemilt, a Sheffield based commercial photographer working with SMEs, founders and established brands that need photography to perform reliably across campaigns. I think about how images will be used, not just how they look.
I hold an undergraduate degree in Business and Marketing and experience in marketing positions, which shapes how I work. I’m comfortable working within defined briefs, approval structures, and brand guidelines. I’ve delivered photography and content projects for brands including Bolt and Everlast Gyms.
My approach is straightforward and commercially focused: clear communication, organised delivery, and image sets that are easy to review, approve, and deploy. The goal is to save internal time, and deliver work that supports marketing objectives without unnecessary friction.
Pricing
Commercial photography and video projects are priced based on scope, deliverables and intended usage.
Rather than offering fixed packages or day rates, each project is quoted individually. This ensures clarity on what’s included and avoids vague pricing that doesn’t hold up once work is in use.
Projects are typically scoped across:
-
Shoot days (creative and production time)
-
Equipment and production requirements
-
Post-production and delivery
-
Image or footage usage, depending on where and how the work will be used
This approach reflects standard commercial practice and ensures the work is fit for real-world use.
If you’d like to discuss a project, share a brief outline of your requirements and intended usage and I’ll confirm availability and next steps.
Let’s see if this is a good fit
If you’re looking for commercially focused photography delivered through a calm, straightforward process, I’d be glad to hear about your project.
I work best with teams and founders who either know exactly what they need or want help defining it, within a realistic timeline and budget.
If you’re still exploring options or aligning things internally, that’s fine. Sharing as much context as you can at this stage helps me assess fit and advise on next steps.
