Phil Bushell - Glorious Chocolate
Product Photography for Glorious Chocolate
WHERE WE STARTED
Glorious Chocolate is a Grantham based micro business, headed up by Phil Bushell, who handcraft luxurious chocolate bark that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.
Their flavour-packed slabs are bursting with premium ingredients—from freeze-dried fruits to herbs and spices—making them a treat for the eyes and the taste buds (I can attest to this!)
Glorious Chocolate contacted me as they were gearing up to launch their gorgeous new website and needed images that did their handcrafted bark justice. Every slab is packed with colour, texture and flavour, so our goal was to capture that visual feast—just as their customers will receive it.
WHAT WE DID
Phil and I discussed ideas over many chocolate samples and I was given free creative reign for this project.
Hold my alcohol-free beer!
Think bright, bold, beautifully styled with the real fruits, herbs and toppings that make each chocolate bark unique and you'll have walked right into my very own chocolate wonderland made to look like my studio but better.
They also needed a handful of hero shots to really set the tone on their homepage and make mouths water from the very first click, something that definitely wouldn't be confused for stock images - Jenga with chocolate slabs anyone? Absolutely!
Phil had opted for my ONE DAY PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY package which gave him plenty of images of each product to keep his promotions alive and sales flowing.
HOW IT FINISHED
The final gallery delivered exactly what was needed—clean, high-quality images that show the chocolate at its best.
Each slab was photographed to highlight its texture, ingredients and finish, creating a consistent look across the full range.
The client was delighted with the result, and the images now feature across their website, social media and printed marketing materials, giving the brand a strong, professional presence both online and offline.
And now because I've quality tested every single item they sell, I also benefit from regular taste testing of new product ranges - result!!
WHAT THEY SAID
The final images give that WOW factor to the product on sale in the shop. They are vibrant and eye-catching, with a healthy dose of drool-worthiness! They certainly scream EAT ME!
