Photography & marketing for design-led makers
I’m Rachel Ghent, a photographer and marketing assistant at an independent brewery, now looking to bring my skills into a design and marketing assistant role.
I work across commercial photography — products, people, interiors — and day-to-day marketing: e-commerce content, social media, and Mailchimp email campaigns that feel calm, clear, and on-brand.
Currently: Photographer & Marketing Assistant at an independent brewery.
My work naturally falls into three areas, each supporting how design-led brands present their products, spaces, and teams.
Product & details
Brewery product photography and e-commerce imagery that shows packaging, texture, and small design details clearly.
People & teams
Meet-the-team portraits and on-site imagery that capture people in their working environment, from brewers to taproom staff.
Interiors & environments
Previous work as an interior photographer, giving me a trained eye for space, materials, and light in hospitality and workplace settings.

People & place
Team and brewery storytelling
- Photographed meet-the-team portraits and process imagery across the brewery and taproom.

Digital content

For design & manufacturing brands
My background sits between interiors, product photography, and hands-on marketing. Shooting for breweries and interior clients has trained my eye to notice how objects, spaces, and materials read on camera.
For design and manufacturing brands, I focus on showing the qualities that matter: finishes, scale, how something is made, and how it lives in a space. That visual story then carries through into e-commerce pages, email campaigns, and social content.
I’m comfortable working within established brand guidelines, collaborating with designers and marketers, and contributing clear, practical ideas that support both brand and sales.
