📸 Timelapse pricing models explained 📸


2025 so far has seen a lot of timelapse-related events and appearances, both online and offline.

Last week I hosted an all-day event with Enlaps and The Timelapse Store where I talked about:

  • The history of timelapse photography
  • The business behind timelapse
  • Pricing models for long-term timelapse shoots
  • The past, present, and future of timelapse equipment
  • And lots more

Please use the chapters under the video to navigate through the three-hour recording here:

Next week I am hosting two free online workshops:

  • Timelapse for construction and monitoring
  • The basics of timelapse photography

Register for both for free here.


Do you need to lock in for a serious editing session?

Here is "Music to refine to", eight hours of Odesza tunes to increase your focus.

An interesting study about "mining" the internet to effectively crowd-source imagery for timelapse creations. It's nine years old, I wonder how the tech has evolved by now.

Summer arrived, and I got crazy busy with work and events! This is why I haven't sent you an email since June 🤯 The latest project I did was quite a lot of work, which is why I'm so happy with the end result. The Tron: Ares launch event in London last week just ticked over 350,000 plays. I worked with a VFX artist, a second shooter and two editors to turn a two hour shoot into something quite special!

For about 200,000 people in the UK, this week is an absolute highlight of the year. Glastonbury 2025 is about to kick off, one of the world's largest music and arts festivals. This BBC documentary about the build of Arcadia, one of my favourite stages, is a great insight (featuring some great hyperlapse footage) into what it means to craft one of many experiences in the fields. I look forward to capturing some fun hyperlapse clips on my 360 camera this year :) Industry News When I started...
