People at Work & Environmental Portraits

People at work photography is about showing real expertise, not staged moments. The aim is to document people doing their jobs properly, in real environments, in a way that feels natural, credible, and true to the business.

Rifkin & Livesey works with manufacturers, service providers, and organisations across Lancashire, the North West, and the UK to produce professional people at work imagery that reflects how teams actually operate. From factory floors and workshops to offices, kitchens, and on-site locations, each shoot is planned to minimise disruption while capturing authentic working moments.

Health and safety, accuracy, and respect for the working environment are treated as essential. Whether the images are used for websites, marketing, recruitment, or internal communications, the focus remains the same: clear, professional photography that builds trust and represents your business as it really is.

Every project is approached with care, consistency, and an understanding of how commercial imagery is used, ensuring the final images work hard wherever they appear.

  • "Day in the Life" Documentary Shoots
