Case Study 01 · Film & Events

Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Prime Series Premiere
Film & Events
Amazon Prime Video · Vue Cinema, Leicester Square, London
The Challenge

Amazon Prime needed fast-turnaround social media video content for the London premiere of Bambai Meri Jaan — a high-profile screening with strict access limitations, cast including Avinash Tiwary, Kritika Kamra, and Kay Kay Menon, and no opportunity for controlled setups. The entire story had to be told through video alone, operating inside a complex live production environment.

The Approach

We embedded alongside the main production crew, capturing authentic moments of arrival, cast interaction, and audience energy. Working discreetly and in real time, we prioritised editorial realism over staging — translating the presence of a major cast and director into short-form visuals built for platform performance.

The Outcome

A series of high-impact launch videos delivered at speed — providing Amazon Prime and their marketing agencies with premium social assets that reinforced the show's international presence and captured the cultural weight of the premiere. Proof that world-class production can operate in the most constrained conditions.

Case Study 02 · Product & Luxury

La Marzocco

Automotive Luxury Campaign
Product & Luxury
La Marzocco × NVN Motorworks London
The Challenge

La Marzocco needed editorial images from a live event in NVN's Timothy Oulton lounge — but no photography was captured on the day. The environment presented challenges: reflective surfaces, complex industrial lighting, and a busy workshop backdrop. High-end imagery was essential, and the original activation couldn't be recreated.

The Approach

We recreated the campaign in a controlled private automotive members' lounge, echoing the Timothy Oulton aesthetic with motorsport photography, vintage helmets, and curated props. Professional lighting was applied to emphasise the machine's metallic surfaces. A styled individual interacted naturally — espresso extraction, milk texturing, dosing — creating authentic editorial motion.

The Outcome

A complete suite of editorial images now integrated into La Marzocco's case study materials and marketing collateral — campaign-ready, on-brand, and elevated beyond what the original environment could have delivered. The recreated setting became a stronger visual story than the real event.

The Riviera Run

European Supercar Rally
Automotive
The Riviera Run · Six-day European Rally
The Challenge

The Riviera Run needed commercial-level photography and video across six days of an exclusive supercar rally through Europe. The goal: create compelling marketing assets that would attract future high-net-worth participants to events they'd never witnessed firsthand.

The Approach

We mapped the full rally route in advance, identifying the most cinematic locations and planning the shot types required at each. From mountain passes to coastal roads to circuit days, we captured the full range of the rally experience — the drama, the luxury, and the camaraderie — with gear selected specifically for each environment.

The Outcome

A licensed commercial photography and video package that gave The Riviera Run promotional assets they had never had before — capturing the prestige and atmosphere of their events in a way that directly supports participant acquisition for future rallies.

Case Study 04 · Fashion

Martorana Fighetto

Clothing Brand Launch
Fashion
Martorana Fighetto · Featuring Bianca Gascoigne
The Challenge

Steve Martorana was launching a new clothing brand with a very specific vision: a motorsport enthusiast meets playboy lifestyle aesthetic. The challenge was to translate that persona into campaign imagery that felt earned and authentic — not styled or forced — while establishing the brand's identity from zero.

The Approach

We brought in TV personality Bianca Gascoigne as the campaign face, developing a shoot narrative around the persona of someone who races on weekends and dines in Sicily on evenings. Every location, every wardrobe choice, and every frame was curated to reinforce the brand's aspirational identity.

The Outcome

A campaign that gave the brand its identity on launch day. The imagery resonated with the target audience, conveying the lifestyle the brand represents and establishing a strong visual foundation for Martorana Fighetto's ongoing marketing.

Case Study 05 · Sports

AQF Sports

Gym Wear & Accessories Campaign
Sports
AQF Sports · London
The Challenge

AQF Sports had an established product range but had never leveraged social media effectively. Despite years in the industry, they had no visual content strategy — leaving significant sales potential untapped as competitors built audiences AQF should have owned.

The Approach

We collaborated with a private eco-gym in London and sourced professional fitness models to create a content series that put the products in real, high-energy use. A mix of editorial images and short-form promotional videos — everything built to perform on the platforms where AQF's audience actually spent their time.

The Outcome

In 2019, following the content campaign, AQF Sports experienced a 46% increase in online sales. A result the brand attributes directly to the step-change in visual quality and the social media strategy built around it. One of the clearest demonstrations of what the right content actually does to a business.

Case Study 06 · Luxury & Fashion

Queenmark

Luxury Shawls Editorial
Luxury & Fashion
Queenmark · London
The Challenge

Queenmark had an exceptional product — luxury Egyptian cotton shawls — but imagery that significantly underrepresented the brand's true quality. The challenge was to create editorial content that matched the prestige of the product and positioned Queenmark in the luxury tier where it belonged.

The Approach

We arranged access to a Rolls-Royce Ghost and combined studio lighting with location shooting to create a magazine-quality editorial. Every styling decision — from model selection to prop placement — was made to reinforce the brand's luxury positioning. Post-production was handled to commercial advertising standards.

The Outcome

A complete visual overhaul that repositioned Queenmark as a premium luxury brand. The client described the shoot as exceeding every expectation — and the resulting imagery gave the brand a foundation to compete at the level their products deserve.

Case Study 07 · Fashion & Lifestyle

Sienna North

Brand Launch Campaign
Fashion & Lifestyle
Sienna North · London
The Challenge

Sienna North was a brand-new luxury women's clothing label entering a highly competitive market. With no existing visual identity, no content, and no audience, the entire brand needed to be built from scratch — on a timeline measured in weeks, not months.

The Approach

We developed the full campaign concept in-house — from initial creative direction through to final delivery. Shooting across multiple London locations, we established the brand's visual language: sophisticated, urban, and aspirational. Everything was built for immediate deployment across digital and print channels.

The Outcome

A complete brand launch campaign that gave Sienna North a visual identity from day one. The imagery has been used across the brand's digital channels, press materials, and advertising — establishing the aesthetic foundation the brand continues to build on.
