Branding Photography for Cheetham Community CE Academy

Cheetham CE Community Academy, Manchester

Cheetham CE Community Academy is a Church of England High School in North Manchester.

Head Teacher Rachel describes their ethos brilliantly…

“I may be biased, but our school is brilliant! We have amazing students, superb and committed staff, caring parents and an excellent Governing Board; all of whom contribute to our vibrant school community.

Our school is unique in the local area as the only Church of England High School for many miles around. You would have to go to Manchester, Chester or Warrington to find the next nearest church foundation school. We are proud to be a Church of England High School, serving the local community, determined to bring out the best in everyone we are lucky enough to educate and work alongside”.

School Photographer Manchester

Karen Wood, the Director of Business & Finance contacted me as a School Photographer Manchester, to create a library of images for the school website and prospectus. I am fully DBS-checked and cleared for educational venues with my work. The brief was to spend a day at the school, capturing the daily life of the staff and pupils, covering as many lessons and activities as possible in the timescale. The emphasis was also on diversity and inclusion, and to feature it as naturally as possible. I love working as a School Photographer Manchester though, and have produced work for several academies and schools in the North West and beyond. At the time of writing I have more school projects ‘going through’ for Thrive CE Academy Trust. This photoshoot was booked for early July, before the end of term. However, the day chosen was one off the hottest of the year so far!

Cheetham CE Community Academy Website Photography

This project, producing photography as a School Photographer Manchester for Cheetham CE Community Academy’s website was great fun…and also hard work! As I say, we kept busy, working over that very hot day, almost flat-out from 9am to around 4pm, (to cover the after-school concert event too). I am really pleased with the results, which look very natural (as is my style!), and will stand the test of time for the school. A great investment, and a great library of photos for Cheetham CE Community Academy to use for the future. As a School Photographer Manchester it was great being part of the school for the different lessons, working with a lovely diverse and friendly teaching team…event the school Dinner Ladies (can we still call them this?) were great fun and very helpful - trying not to laugh every time I pointed a camera at them… :-)
