It’s Photography Time…Showcase Your Suffolk Home!

Are you proud of your Suffolk home?

Would you like it professionally photographed and featured in our advertising and member communications?

Take a look at how you can get involved below. And as a thank you for allowing us to photograph your home, we’ll give you a £100 voucher. You don’t even need to have a mortgage with us to take part.

Your full name and exact address will never be made public.

What we’re doing

Our brand photography features real Society members. This time, we’re commissioning local photographer Richard Allenby-Pratt, of The Suffolk Project, to take photographs of real homes belonging to our members. You might want to appear in the photographs too, but this isn’t essential.

We’re looking for the following:

  • Homes of any size, shape, and age.
  • Every type of household: first time buyers, downsizers, single dwellers, those starting over, growing families, multigenerational homes.
  • Self builds at any stage of development.
  • New kitchens, bathrooms, or any other renovations.
  • Homes with eco features or retrofitting: electric car charging points, heat pumps, solar panels, rainwater harvesting etc.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

As an inclusive organisation, we want our brand photography to represent all of our members. This includes people of diverse ages, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and with disabilities. If you need any adjustments made for you to take part, please let us know.

What’s in it for you?

As a thank you, you’ll receive digital copies of the professional shots.

You can also choose between £100 to spend at Suffolk Food Hall or a £100 PhotoBox credit* so you can have your photos printed in a format of your choice.

Apply to take part

To get involved, please submit your details below. In the comments sections please include:

  • Whether you’d like the exterior, interior or both photographed.
  • Names of anyone willing to be photographed outside or inside your home (pets welcome!).

Once we receive your expression of interest, we’ll email to ask for a photograph of your home to ensure it’s one we could provide a mortgage on (so no house boats, nor mobile homes).

If we receive more volunteers than we have space for, we may ask if we can put you on the list for a future photo shoot.

Thank you once again for your support of Suffolk Building Society.
