Evidence

Your photo library, audited and organised

Lyle's Lens starts with what your organisation needs to show, then plans the photography around it. The result is a reusable photo library built around your athletes, your programme and your organisation.

Most organisations already own photographs. The audit shows what they can already do for you, and what is missing.

Discovery Audit

$1,200

You share the photographs you already own and tell Lyle what they need to do. You get written findings: what works, what can be reused, and what is missing for each of the six jobs. No cameras are involved. Credited against any work that follows.

System setup

Quoted after the audit

Lyle sets up the library and fills it from the photographs you already own.

Visual system build

Quoted

The setup, plus the missing photographs made as one project.

Season retainer

By proposal

Lyle keeps the library current through the season, at rates below one-off prices.

The library is yours. Fill the gaps with any photographer you choose, or retain Lyle.

Sponsorship

Give partners photographs they can actually use.

Governance

The method

One photograph, planned for three uses

Hockey ACT

From one athlete to the whole organisation.

Hockey ACT has commissioned Lyle since September 2024. The library grew from that work and his own coverage. Photos from it have since been used in Hockey ACT's selection announcements, programme promotion and Strategic Plan.
