Six disciplines.
One eye behind every frame.

Every set of images we deliver is built to be used - on your website, in your ads, across your feed. Not sat in a folder because none of it quite fits.

Product Photography

Studio and lifestyle product shots for e-commerce, PDPs, campaigns and social. Consistent styling, sharp cut-outs, and lifestyle imagery that tells a story around the product.

Property Photography

Interior and exterior property shots for estate agents, holiday lets, hospitality and independent developers. Wide, symmetrical, evenly lit - and edited to sell.

Portraits & Headshots

Editorial-style portraits and professional headshots for founders, teams and creatives. Considered lighting, natural expressions, and images that don't scream corporate stock.

Hospitality & Food

Restaurant, pub, and cafe photography that captures the room, the food, and the feeling. Menu imagery, interior shots and social-ready content in one session.

Event Coverage

Reportage-style event photography - launches, openings, conferences and private events. Fast turnaround for social, plus a full curated gallery for press and comms.

Editorial & Brand

Long-form brand photography for websites, decks and PR. Full brand libraries built around your visual language, ready to feed your marketing for months.

Where in the UK does PKING MEDIA work?

We're based in Ipswich, Suffolk, and work primarily across the East of England - Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire. We also travel UK-wide for the right brief.

There's no extra travel charge inside a 30 mile drive from Ipswich. For London or further afield, travel and accommodation are quoted at-cost with no markup. About 70% of our projects are within an hour of Ipswich, which is exactly the local focus we set out with.

What happens after I book a discovery call?

The discovery call is a 30-minute Zoom or in-person conversation with Perran - no pitch deck, no sales pressure.

We'll talk through what you're trying to achieve, who the work is for, and the practical constraints around timeline and budget. Within 48 hours you'll get a written proposal covering the recommended approach, deliverables, timeline, and a fixed all-in price.

If it's a fit, we book the shoot. If it's not, we'll point you toward someone who is - no hard feelings, no follow-up emails.

Do you work with small businesses or only big brands?

About 80% of our work is for independent businesses, owner-operators, and small-to-medium enterprises across Suffolk and the East of England.

Some of our most rewarding projects have been for one-person workshops, family-run breweries, independent estate agents, and craft makers - alongside heritage brands like Le Creuset and Titchmarsh & Goodwin. We deliberately price for independent businesses so the work is accessible.

If you've ever thought "video isn't for businesses our size", that's exactly the assumption we set up to push back against.

Who is Perran King and what's PKING MEDIA's background?

PKING MEDIA was founded in March 2020 by Perran King, a Suffolk-born filmmaker who started his career at 16 with an internship at a London production company - editing for global brands, shooting at Abbey Road Studios, and cutting work that landed on GRM Daily.

After completing a Level 4 Higher Education Diploma in Creative Enterprise with Distinction, he came back to Suffolk to set up the studio. The mission is straightforward: give independent businesses access to world-class production without London prices, and give local young creatives the same opportunities Perran had without the cost of commuting to the capital.

The studio has worked with 20+ brands across the UK since launch, including Le Creuset, Fishers Gin, Titchmarsh & Goodwin, and RSK Group.
