Bringing Spaces to Life – On Google Maps & Beyond
Since 2015, I’ve been working with Leeds Conservatoire (formerly Leeds College of Music) to visually showcase their evolving campus through professional interior photography and interactive virtual tours.
With student recruitment becoming increasingly competitive — especially among international applicants — the need to make your facilities accessible online is more vital than ever. My work helps schools, colleges, and universities across the UK highlight their spaces in ways that are dynamic, engaging, and easy to explore.
A Longstanding Collaboration: From College to Conservatoire
My first visit to what was then Leeds College of Music took place in 2015, where I photographed:
-
Soundproofed music studios
-
Performance halls
-
Classrooms
-
The student canteen
-
Reception and communal areas
As the institution evolved into Leeds Conservatoire, I’ve returned multiple times to update and expand their imagery and virtual tour content to reflect new developments. These include:
📸 A Pioneer DJ Room
A specialist space built to support students exploring the latest in electronic and performance-based music production.
📸 The Renovated Library Building
A beautifully updated facility in a separate location, seamlessly connected to the main tour via a custom menu system, allowing users to jump between spaces with ease.
📸 Rooftop Bar & ‘The Venue’
A stylish rooftop bar now linked to The Venue – a live performance space used for student concerts and conferences.
📸 New Dance and Rehearsal Studios
Brand-new spaces supporting courses in performing arts, now fully documented and integrated into the wider virtual experience.
Why Combine Photography with a Virtual Tour?
A well-shot still image captures atmosphere and detail. A virtual tour lets prospective students explore at their own pace. Together, they create a powerful tool for:
-
Attracting students from outside the region or overseas
-
Improving engagement on websites and social media
-
Showcasing high-end facilities and specialist kit
-
Making the most of your space online – 24/7
Everything I created for Leeds Conservatoire is also fully integrated with Google Maps, helping them increase visibility and provide a professional first impression when people search for them online.
