# Meridian Photography

Meridian Photography is a specialist commercial and industrial photography business established in 1992 by Francois Ward, a professional photographer with nearly three decades of experience. Based in Ringwood, Hampshire, the studio serves clients across the South Coast, including the Bournemouth and Poole areas.

The business caters to corporate clients, architects, developers, and advertising agencies requiring high-quality visual documentation. Their expertise spans architectural photography, industrial documentation, studio work, product photography, and commercial location-based assignments. The team also produces corporate imagery and advertising content for businesses seeking professional visual solutions.

What distinguishes Meridian Photography is Francois Ward's extensive portfolio and proven track record. The business has photographed significant architectural landmarks, including The Bullring in Birmingham, and their work has been featured in national publications such as the Financial Times travel section. This editorial recognition demonstrates their capability to deliver publication-quality imagery.

Beyond commercial work, the studio maintains a fine art photography practice, with limited edition prints available through their associated Meridian Photographic Gallery. This dual focus—combining commercial pragmatism with artistic integrity—sets them apart from purely commercial operators. The business offers bespoke quoting for specific client needs rather than rigid packages, indicating flexibility and personalised service. Their comprehensive service range, combined with established credentials and geographic proximity to major South Coast business centres, positions them as an accessible yet professional choice for organisations requiring commercial photography expertise.
