Transport Photography
Commercial photographer Tim Wallace of AmbientLife recently completed a major on-location photographic commission for Richmonds Coaches, one of the UK’s leading transport and travel operators. The project captured Richmonds’ impressive fleet of coaches and buses across multiple UK locations, highlighting their operational excellence and brand strength.
Based in Royston, Hertfordshire, Richmonds Coaches is known for dependable coach hire, group travel, and European holiday services. Their reputation for quality, safety, and comfort is reflected in every part of their business, including the professional imagery now produced by Tim and the team.
With over 20 years of experience in transport, truck, and commercial vehicle photography, Tim Wallace is recognised internationally for his technical ability and creativity in photographing large-scale subjects. His portfolio at AmbientLife features work with leading brands in logistics, automotive, and aviation, bringing precision, depth, and a sense of scale to every project.
The Richmonds Coaches shoot took place entirely on location across the UK, using ambient and natural light to bring authenticity to each image. From active client corporate client locations to rural roads, Tim’s compositions capture the essence of movement and real-world operation, key hallmarks of effective commercial transport photography.
Unlike traditional studio vehicle work, this series focused on storytelling through environment and context. Tim’s experience in automotive and truck photography allowed him to manage the unique challenges of photographing large vehicles outdoors, including reflections, light control, and spatial composition, with precision and style.
The resulting image library now supports Richmonds Coaches’ marketing, web, and print materials, providing a visually strong, cohesive set of brand assets. The collaboration demonstrates how professional photography can elevate a company’s public image and strengthen its online presence within the competitive transport sector.
