LPA Photographers / Alice Whitby / Shopify

In 2020 Shopify made the decision to go completely remote due to Covid-19. LPA photographer Alice Whitby was commissioned to capture this new reality and photographed a selection of their UK employees working from home and what this new flexible work-life looks like for them.

Visiting four employees in their homes in London and Kent, Alice captured these fantastic images. Each had embraced working from home and had created a dedicated workspace.

Each Shopify employee was making the most of the flexibility that came from WFH. Edou was able to pick his children up from school and spend more time with them rather than commuting, Anya was able to practice her hobbies such as playing the piano and painting, and Marcus and Noa enjoyed being able to walk to their local park or coffee shop in their lunch breaks.

Alice says she really loved photographing people in their home environment, and the intimacy and variety that comes with this kind of shoot so this was the perfect commission for her, and Shopify were a dream to work with!

Beautiful work Alice!
