Manchester Airport - 1903 Lounge, Engineered to Perfection

Services | Commercial Photography & Editing

Project Details

Working for Manchester Airport, I was hired to photograph the functional features and services of both their flagship airport lounges. My objective was to create an image asset bank to be used across all their marketing activity. With both lounges sharing the same location, it was integral to make sure that each lounge had a distinctly unique look and feel to avoid any confusion with customers. 

1903 Lounge

1903 offers a premium pre-flight experience that will broaden your horizons and change the way you see the world. To create a distinguished look and feel, I focused on capturing the more premium nature of the functional services on offer.

To extenuate the brands colour pallet I used a lower-key lit light to create a warm and rich looking image. Then brought everything together in post-production by developing a consistent colour grade.
