CS Photography is the brain child of Sean Bradley and Charlie Gajda. The aim of CS Photography is to help bands both signed and unsigned, build a great collection of photographs to document their career. Both Sean and Charlie have had years of experience with music photography, and both study at Staffordshire University. Sean Bradley has had success in Tamworth, by having his work used by the majority of bands in the area, and having his work published every week in the local newspaper. Charlie has had wide experience photographing many bands in the prolific music scenes of Stoke-On-Trent and Manchester, along with a lot of studio work. CS Photography understands how hard it is for bands to find a professional photographer or photography team who can capture their band accurately without charging ridiculous prices. We have easy access to key cities such as Manchester, Liverpool and Birmingham, along with smaller surrounding areas such as Hanley, Stoke-On-Trent, Tamworth and Lichfield, however if you wish to have photographs taken further afield it is possible to arrange.

Prices:

CS Photography knows how unsigned bands can struggle to pull the money together for a decent photography session. We also understand that some bands have plenty of funding, but dont want to spend such a big cut on a few Photography ideas. CS Photography will work hard to design a package to fit the artist and meet their specification.

Venue Photography; Gigs and similar events are charged from £60 per set. Travel to the venue is charged at 40p per mile, from Stoke-on-Trent. However any fee which the photographers are charged to get into the venue, will have to be refunded. The client will recieve a CD containing high quality photographs, presented as a digital image. The images will be a very high resolution.

Studio / Location Photography; CS Photography offers fine studio equipment for either location or studio photography. These would be perfect for posters, album art work or websites. These types of shoots will be charged from £80 per session, and will give the client roughly 30 high quality, digital images. Travel to a location, for a location shoot is charged at 40p per mile. If bands would like a studio shoot, they will have to find their own way to Stoke-On-Trent on the date the photographer gives.
