Matt Harquail is a photographer with over 5 years of professional photography experience. Here he talks a little more about his approach to photography and why he may be able to help you.
"I believe that when it comes to promoting your business having the best corporate photography matters. If you already use photography to promote your business, you know that having the right image can be the difference between success and failure.
Corporate photography isn't limited to only corporate headshots of you and your team. It encompasses photographs of your business premises and location, how you produce your products, and imagery that demonstrates the products and services that you provide to your clients. By using light, pose, composition, and most importantly an understanding of you and your business, I create bespoke and thought provoking photography for you to use in your external marketing and internal publication materials.
If you are looking to update your corporate image, have a cachet of unique stock imagery, or are building/ updating a website with Studio44, then discuss your creative image direction with Photographer Matt Harquail."

Insights & resources
There's a specific moment a lot of growing businesses reach. The CRM that worked fine two years ago is now the thing everyone complains about. Someone's built a workaround in a spreadsheet. A second tool has crept in to cover a gap the first one never filled. It's not that the software is broken, more that the business has grown past what a generic platform was ever designed to do, and buying yet another off the shelf tool feels like treating the symptom rather than the cause.
Studio44 InsightsSome businesses don't just need a system, they need a document. A detailed one. Take a Legionella risk assessment, a single inspection can produce a finished report running to around eighty pages, covering every water outlet, every reading, every photograph and every recommendation, formatted precisely enough to stand up to scrutiny from a client, an auditor or a regulator. Producing that by hand, assembling photos, readings and narrative into a polished PDF, is slow, repetitive and exactly the kind of work software should be doing instead of a person.
Studio44 InsightsAsk many insurance businesses how a quote becomes a live policy, and you will often hear some version of the same story. A quote gets drafted in one tool. It's emailed across for approval. Once accepted, the policy documentation gets built somewhere else entirely. Renewal dates live in a spreadsheet, checked manually, if someone remembers to check it. Nothing is technically broken, but nothing is connected either, and that gap is where mistakes, missed renewals and slow turnaround times tend to creep in.
Studio44 InsightsPicture a Monday morning at a busy construction firm. Vehicle checks are scribbled on a clipboard. The site schedule lives in someone's head, and partly in a WhatsApp group. Timesheets arrive on Friday, if they arrive at all. Photos from site get sent to the wrong person, or never sent at all. None of this is anyone's fault, it's just what happens when a growing trade business has outgrown spreadsheets but hasn't yet found a system that actually fits how construction work happens.
