art works is a boutique retouching studio based in London, specialising in creative retouching and grading for photographers, brands and agencies worldwide.

Open since September 2016, art works has a fast growing team and is agile with the capacity to deliver large scope projects.

The art works ethos is simple: "whether digital modernism or analogue romanticism, we aim to exceed clients' expectations in their chosen direction."

Mark Zawila is a London-based photographer and CGI artist specialising in still life, food and drinks photography. Mark blends creative concepts with technical expertise to create his own unique and innovative style.

Fiona Watson Production, founded in 2002, is a London-based production company offering a complete service for all photography and moving image needs.

From conception and budgeting to the selection and management of the team, production co-ordination, post-production and final delivery, the company takes pride in bringing in every project on time and in budget. The team has produced advertising and fashion shoots all over the world.

Having commissioned photographic shoots in her prior career as an art director, Fiona Watson went into production with an exceptional insight into the creative and professional standards required to offer a fantastic service.

Fiona still personally oversees every aspect of production to ensure whatever the project, shoots are relaxed and fun as well as productive.

"Editorial, events, video, basically anything and everything relating to styling a project. From dressing models and sourcing props to making food look irresistible. I work closely with photographers and art directors to create compelling imagery for any client needs."

"Alex was instrumental in the success of a four-country, six-shoot brand photography project. We brought her on under ludicrously tight timelines but she managed to pull off being, at various times, our project manager, production lead, stylist and part-time art director. She found fixers, scouted locations, cast models, styled both people and sets and lugged a fair amount of stuff on and off set. In short, she was my vital right-hand in a project that has formed the backbone of our global brand" (Deezer)

Clare Piper is a still life and interior prop stylist based in London. Working across both commercial and editorial commissions, she has a meticulous eye and positive energy.

Clare can effectively articulate her vision and/or interpret a client’s ideas via strong and professional style boards. When it comes to sourcing, she will stop at nothing to locate the perfect prop, no matter how obscure it may be. Clare is very crafty and hands on and will paint, sew, cut, stick, draw, drill, saw, plant, steam and clean anything that is required.

On set, Clare is friendly and efficient, ready to solve any issues that may arise with patience and an “absolutely can do” attitude.

Her commercial client list includes Shell, Samsung, John Lewis, Ikea, Nestlé, B&Q, George at Asda, Maille, Kerrygold and Channel 4, while her editorial work has been featured in Elle Decoration, Label Magazine, 91 Magazine, on trendland.com and in Gestalten book 'Scandinavia Dreaming'.

Darren Black is a British photographer whose work hits four key notes: sex, subversion, vulgar, cool. He shoots both analogue and digital.

As a teacher at Ravensbourne University, Sheffield Hallam, LCF and a citizen of the world, he has travelled extensively to Hong Kong, Europe, Barbados, The Seychelles, Nigeria and Indonesia.

As well as other high profile clients, he has shot campaigns for Harvey Nichols and has been featured in Vogue, Elle, Dazed, Viper, Notion, Fault, 1883, L'Autre, Papercut, Disorder, typeface, TMRW, Narcissus, Solstice Singapore and Rogue.

Darren’s last exhibition, 'create/destroy/create', an experiment in collage, saw him rifle through his archive using both rudimentary and new technology to deconstruct his own archive of work and create bastard portraits that are drenched in sex and elicit more than a touch of the violence of his method. The resulting work was an arresting (and at time shocking) comment on the nature of photography and the airbrushed, retouched world we live in.

Darren's shots are raw, edgy, uncompromising, confrontational and explicit, yet they still retain a strong fashion element and always manage to grab the viewer's attention without being obvious or coarse.

"I'm an Edinburgh-based people and product photographer working across the UK and beyond. Previously an IT technician, I craved for a career change. After gaining BA qualification in commercial photography I have worked alongside one of Scotland's top creative agencies - Whitespace. Proving my skills and work ethics, I quickly began to work with big names such as Sainsbury's Bank, Highland Spring, RAC, Visit Scotland, Aegon and others, creating award winning imagery for their campaigns.

My passion is to capture people at work in their environment as well as making images of products for advertising purposes. I love endless creative possibilities that I can offer to my clients. Being a quality freak I give my best to each and every detail of the imagery I produce.

I work together with my clients to produce the work that reflects their vision through my creativity and skills.

Most recent campaigns include catalogue shots for Hamilton&Inches, a huge series of people, location and product stills and videos for 12 of Diageo's most iconic whisky distilleries, as well as an advertising project for Sainsbury's Bank."

"We have had a very busy start to the year providing production and locations for the creative industry in London and abroad. 

We have shot for  BSkyB, Coral, Hepatitus C Awareness, Humira, IBM, Ickle Pickles, Lerros, Microsoft, PwC and Shemira.

Travelling to Oslo and Svalbard this year was awesome (shame we didn’t see polar bears though!) as are the shots from Jason Knott's P&O shoot in Barcelona last summer, which have just been released.

We provide all production services you would expect and no doubt some that you might not and are ready to find the solutions to your creative conundrums and organise your shoots.

Why not give us a call to discuss your next project?

Peace of mind through production!"
