Writing on behalf of Robert Wynn & Sons. We recently worked with Oli on a filming project covering our heavy lift vessel Terra Marique. From the outset, Oli was professional, easy to work with, and took the time to understand the operation and the story we were trying to tell. The quality of both the photography and video production was excellent, capturing an engineering project in a way that was engaging and visually impressive. He was able to accomodate our schedule changes and nothing was too much trouble when it came to revisions and final edits. Oli responded quickly to feedback, made changes promptly, and worked collaboratively with our team throughout. We're delighted with the final result and would have no hesitation in recommending Different View to anyone looking for high-quality commercial photography and videography. We look forward to working with Oli again on future projects.

Oli (and Different View) was just amazing to work with! Professional, thoughtful, elevated what we were trying to say, and genuinely lovely to have around. We brought him in to capture our BENCHES exhibition and 360 dome experience, and he completely got what we were trying to do. Rather than just documenting the work, he found a way to communicate the feeling of it. The photos he captured and the video he created don't just show the space and the work, they give people a real sense of what it was like to be there, amongst the exhibition, experiencing it and living in its world. The project centres around an autistic artist and themes of neurodiversity, and Oli approached everything with real sensitivity and care. He captured both the work and the artist beautifully, without ever feeling intrusive or performative. He went above and beyond throughout the process and delivered something that has become a really important part of the project's legacy. I couldn't recommend him highly enough, and I will definitely be using him for all photography and video needs in the future. Honestly, this is the guy you want!!

We commissioned Different view to take marketing photos for Turnchapel Wharf. Amazing results and a really quick turnaround time. Nothing was too much, and a pleasure to work with. We will use you again.

As part of our 200km challenge in our bicentenary year, Oli produced fantastic work that will be valuable to us for many years to come. His focus on capturing real, genuine moments rather than staged shots really shines through in the final highlight reels and we're so grateful. Oli was professional, punctual, and took the time to understand exactly what we wanted from the outset. Logistically, this was a challenging project with multiple locations and tight timings, but Oli handled it seamlessly - always staying ahead of the team and ensuring everything we wanted captured was covered without issue. Big thank you for bringing our vision to life, it was a pleasure to work with you.

As a Commercial Photographer I recently worked with Oliver Dickinson from Different View on a Logistics Company project that needed high quality drone images of their new site to complement my ground based coverage. The results were everything I hoped they would be and more. Oliver interpreted the brief fully and delivered some terrific images over and beyond what was expected. I would highly recommend!
