Charles Ward Photography

We used Charles for a food and drink photo shoot for Resorts World Birmingham across several bars and restaurants and we were thrilled with the images we received . His attention to detail and the skill and effort he puts in to getting the perfect shot each and every time makes his work outstanding. The vibrancy and detail of each image makes the food jump out of the picture and captures every little bit of colour and texture.Charles is also set apart by the fact that he really takes on board the commercial brief. He thinks about and understands how the images need to be used, making sure they have the right look and feel for the brand and are versatile enough to feature across a wide variety of marketing materials.We really enjoyed the experience of working with Charles and are already booking our next shoot!Kate Manion, Brand Marketing Manager, Resorts World Birmingham

I have worked and known Charlie for over 12 years and his knowledge of photography and his ability to make food jump out on the plate always guarantees a successful shoot. His enthusiasm of technology always keeps him ahead of the game, but most of all what I love about Charlie is not only is he fantastic in what he does he is a decent guy and a pleasure to work with.

We used Charles to re-shoot our Lifestyle images for use on our website and social media - I am over the moon with how the photo's have come out. The quality and the attention to detail of the footwear is fantastic. Charles's knowledge on footwear alongside his camera skills has ensured that we captured exactly what we wanted. Charles is extremely professional and I will definitely be using him for all photo's in the future. Highly recommended!

A passionate, patient and personable photographer, Charlie provides outstanding training that is incredibly helpful and responsive to one’s needs. I thoroughly enjoyed the session and would certainly recommend him to anyone who wants to delve deeper into the wonderful world of photography!!!

We have used Charlie's amazing photography skills to capture our seasonal collections from Joseph Cheaney & Sons on a number of occasions. The shoots are always well-planned out and detailed ahead of time and Charlie is extremely professional during the shoot. We always manage to capture exactly what we were looking for, would highly recommend

I have used Charles on several occasions as a client so when an opportunity arose to create a 'mini studio' based around product photography, there really was only one choice. Charlie was engaged from moment one and hugely responsive to every question and concern.We were invited to his studio so we could understand how we could create a very similar setup, albeit on a smaller scale. He graciously introduced us to partners he has used for many years to help us better create a workflow, all of whom, treated us like old friends.Having prepared us a detailed spec list with justification for his choices, he also showed us areas we could save money and areas where it would be a false economy. He helped us source all the kit, even taking into consideration our wish to support other local companies for the supply where possible.Finally, he helped us 'set up' the studio and gave us expert tuition in creating a 'workflow' that worked for us and all delivered in an engaging way that left us feeling informed, rather than overwhelmed.It is rare for me to write a review because most companies these days just do 'enough' but it is more than fair to say, Charlie truly went above and beyond.Paul WarnerChief Imagineer - The Emporium

We have always used Charles to do our food photography, he takes great professional photo’s that look stunning. Charles is a pleasure to work with, he freely shares his knowledge and offers useful tips. A creative photographer, great studio and up to date equipment.

My startup needed photographs of our new conference and presenter TV trolley range and on recomendation we spent a day with Charlie to get the images for our print and website requirements.We used the morning to get all of the cut out shots of our products at the state of the art studio in Earls Barton followed by an afternoon at a local hotel to get on location shots. Charlie listend to our requirements and was very quick to produce the excellent results delivered.

Charles Ward took our wedding photos 10 years ago, and made an incredible experience a constant reminder through the high quality photographs he took. We struggled to pick the best ones ...Recently I required professional photographs, and we asked for family pictures with our 3yr old son. It was a lovely experience, and once again we have quality photos to look back on with time, and age.I cannot compliment or recommend Charles enough for his professionalism and wonderful nature, and the way he makes his subjects feel so relaxed to get the best photos.

I had the opportunity to witness Charles at work in his state of the art studio. Charles’s work and enthusiasm shines through with his high quality photos and professionalism. It was a pleasure working with Charles and there will be many more to come. Keep doing what you do best.
