Our contribution to the environment

The last 18 months has been a difficult time for many people over the world. For us at BFI, it was a challenging time as schools were closed or was not permitting unnecessary visitors. This gave us an excellent opportunity to assess the direction of the company and decide what our vision and values would be.

We strongly believe in the work we do for schools and have passion for this, but sometimes the effect that we have on the environment, as a result of driving the entire country, does keep us awake at night.

One of our beliefs is that every person and company has a social responsibility to ensuring the health of the environment. BFI Media is a small company but easily contributes to the effect of global warming due to travelling the length and breadth of the UK. As we cannot afford electric vehicles (although this would be a future goal), we need to act to offset our carbon footprint.

Therefore, we are partnering with Ecologi in an attempt to offset our carbon emissions. This means that for every photo or video shoot that we complete, we will plant a tree in honour of that school.

Don't just take our word for it!

We have a long history of providing high quality and reliable services. Our experience of different contexts with different challenges puts us ahead of the game.

We wanted to put together a set of films capturing our colleagues discussing best practice in teaching and leadership. Luke was great in thinking through what would be best for our requirements and then crucially putting colleagues at ease so they could present their stories. I would recommend Luke highly.

Luke came to our school to capture images of our school and pupils in action. I was delighted with the outcome that showed our children in action, working, learning, playing and having fun. Luke's professional approach ensured that we all felt at ease and were able to be ourselves. Brilliant pictures that speak volumes.

Luke is an excellent photographer. He is very skilled technically and has a good eye for composition. He has a passion for his craft and is always pushing himself to produce images with creative impact. Luke is very friendly and gets on well with clients and colleagues. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

We recently hired Luke to work on a photoshoot with us to get a collection of education photographs, after he was highly recommended on LinkedIn, and the results are fantastic. Luke was incredibly friendly and professional and a joy to work with. He made the models feel really relaxed instantly and really understood our brief. He was happy to listen to my suggestions and added his own ideas into the mix, resulting in a great selection of photos for us to now use in our brochures, on our websites and across social media. We will definitely be working with Luke again!

Luke was commissioned to take photographs for our new Trust website. I had the pleasure of accompanying Luke around our schools over three days and was impressed by his professionalism and eye for detail. Luke was equipped with a vast knowledge of school life and experience which enabled the shoot to go smoothly and with minimal disruption to teaching. The resulting photographs are amazing and really bring the website to life - in fact there are so many great ones it has been really difficult to choose. Highly recommended!

Luke has recently become one of our recommended freelancers for our school photography days. The photos I have received are beautiful and capture life at school perfectly. His work is delivered exceptionally quickly. Luke has also been willing to share his knowledge and experience with me and made recommendations to help me improve the way we deliver our photos to our clients. It is clear that he has the customer in mind at all times and goes above and beyond to make sure he delivers exactly what they want and need.
