Photographing the Cubbie Launch Event in Southend

Last Friday, I had the pleasure of photographing the launch of a brand-new Cubbie sensory pod in Southend. It was a daytime event filled with excitement, innovation and community spirit — the perfect mix for storytelling through photography.

Cubbie’s sensory pods are designed to create calm, personalised environments for people who experience sensory overload — offering a safe and adaptable space in schools, workplaces, and public areas. This launch marked another step forward in making inclusive spaces more accessible for everyone.

The event brought together educators, local leaders, and professionals from the health and wellbeing sectors to see the new pod in action. I focused on capturing not just the technology itself, but also the reactions of people as they experienced it — moments of curiosity, reflection, and connection.

Lighting during the day was beautifully natural, streaming through the venue’s windows and complementing the pod’s modern, minimalist design. I balanced wider shots showing the full setup with close-ups that highlighted textures, expressions, and interactions — the human side of innovation.

It was inspiring to see how much thought and care has gone into creating something that can make such a difference in everyday lives. Photographing events like this — where purpose meets creativity — is always a reminder of why I love what I do.
