Pinchbeck Watches are a small, family connected team of four, handmaking beautiful timepieces to order in a hidden studio above the Bailgate in Lincoln with leaded arched windows overlooking Lincoln Cathedral and a spiral staircase I barely made it up with my camera bag. Here's how we captured the craft, the people and the soul behind one of Lincoln's most extraordinary hidden gems.

Gill is a painter & print maker creating work that’s full of feeling. Her mini studio is an Aladdin’s cave of colour—brushes, swatches, paper scraps and sketchbooks stacked with ideas. Honestly, I could’ve moved in.

Sarah had a clear idea for our personal branding photoshoot including the relaxed coffee shop vibe and colour tones to match her own brand.

Working with Sarah was bloody lovely, it can be nerve wracking when two photographers work together, wondering if one is judging the other, but there was nothing but LOVE for one another.

My FAVOURITE shop in Lincoln is The Artisan Maker, situated in Lincoln’s historic Bailgate area. It’s chock full of texture, layers & colour. It’s a real treat for the eyes - so I dropped in to capture a few shots.
