Fish & Pips
Context
Fish and Pips Travel began as one of Méribel’s leading chalet companies before evolving into a global tour operator specialising in tailor-made holidays, delivered with exceptional care and a genuinely personal approach. Despite this international growth, the brand has remained deeply rooted in the Three Valleys ski market, offering a carefully curated portfolio of catered, serviced and self-catered chalets and apartments in Méribel and beyond.
I have worked with Fish and Pips Travel over several years, supporting the brand as it has grown and expanded into increasingly high-end properties. During that time, photography and videography have played an important role in communicating the quality, atmosphere and experience of staying in an F and P chalet, particularly in a competitive luxury ski market where visual storytelling is key.

Strategy
The creative approach focused on producing architectural photography and video content that feels warm, inviting and true to the lived-in chalet experience. Rather than purely static interiors, the aim was to show how the spaces feel when occupied, balancing clean architectural detail with lifestyle-led moments. As the brand evolved, the strategy expanded to include short-form video for social media alongside more cinematic chalet films, allowing Fish and Pips Travel to showcase properties across multiple platforms while maintaining a consistent, premium visual identity.
"We couldn’t recommend Gwilym Thomas more highly. Over the years he has captured our chalet portfolio beautifully - with an eye for detail and creating an atmosphere that truly brings each property to life. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he makes every shoot feel easy and enjoyable. He brings professionalism, energy, positivity and a calm efficiency that turns a long day into something genuinely fun. He’s versatile, solutions-focused and always up for making things work, often going above and beyond without fuss. His turnaround is impressively quick, and the quality never slips. A true professional and an absolute pleasure to work with - Gwil is the partner you’re always grateful to have as an extension to your team. "

Execution
Production takes place across the Three Valleys, capturing a selection of Fish and Pips Travel’s standout chalets through interior and exterior photography, short-form social video and longer-form architectural films. Each shoot is tailored to the individual property, highlighting layout, materials, light and key features, while also conveying the wider chalet experience. As new properties are added to the portfolio, I am regularly invited back to document each new chapter, building a growing library of luxury chalet photography and videography that supports ongoing marketing and brand growth.
