Why 1457?
We have been organising and executing film and photography shoots for sixteen years. We pride ourselves on our meticulous attention to detail and our relentless work ethic.
Our roots are in Golf. The year is 1457. King James II has banned Golf stating all should practise archery instead of mindless games. The next ban on Golf came during the pandemic of 2019, over 300 years later. This is when our collective was founded. The 1457 Club, born from obsession; a raw passion and determination to tell the historic stories of golf. Now, that same passion has taken us on a journey to tell stories across the globe.
Our valued family of clients now extend beyond golf and make up some of the oldest standing and most prestigious brands in the world. They understand our relentless pursuit for perfection and quality, and that we value fine details. We produce industry leading content in timeframes thought to be impossible.
That is why they entrust us to tell their story.
