Brand story photography for Ford at Dunton

We photographed the families in Ford's story Meet the Transit-Building Families with Vans in Their Veins, published on 25 November 2025 for the Transit's 60th year. The shoot was at Ford's Dunton Campus in Essex on 28 October 2025.

Dunton is where Ford designs and develops the Transit. Ford opened the Dunton Technical Centre in 1967, and it is now Ford's centre for engine, transmission and commercial vehicle engineering. The story follows two families who have worked on the Transit across generations.

Stephen Day worked in quality and electrical at Ford from 1976 to 2019, and Martin Day is a supervisor in vehicle infotainment and connectivity. Les Routledge developed engines from 1978 to 2016, and John Routledge works in engine engineering and innovation.

We photographed them with an older Transit and the current Transit Custom in the workshop: under the bonnet, at the wheel and with archive photographs, brochures and badges. We also shot details and a group photograph by the Ford Britain sign at the campus entrance.

Ford has built more than 13 million Transits in 60 years. The published story credits our photographs.
