Manuel Pearce Photography Thrives with Galois Virtual Tours in the UK
Manuel Pearce Photography to craft 360-degree virtual tours across the UK. Armed with Galois technology, his company has shifted from real estate to education, leisure, and retail, with a profound impact on schools.
From Telecoms to Lenses: A Bold Start
After a quarter-century in telecoms, Manuel Pearce channeled his love for photography into Manuel Pearce Photography. Launched just over a year ago, the business uses Realsee’s Galois device to deliver immersive 360-degree virtual tours. Beyond tours, Manuel offers drone photography, corporate headshots, standard stills, and plans to introduce 3D product scanning. This versatile portfolio caters to clients, from wedding venues to car showrooms, showcasing spaces with vivid clarity and sparking new ways to engage audiences.
Galois: The Clear Choice Over Matterport
Manuel’s tech journey began with research, weighing options like Matterport. A YouTube review spotlighting Galois’s prowess changed the game. “Its quality stood out,” Manuel noted, praising Galois’s crisp visuals and dual 2D/3D scan views. The 3D viewpoints, recently embraced, help map layouts and plan scans with precision. Choosing Galois over Matterport wasn’t just about cost—it was about delivering unmatched clarity to clients, setting Manuel Pearce Photography apart in a competitive field.
Pivoting to Diverse Markets
Initially targeting UK estate agents, Manuel found many were self-sufficient with tours, prompting a pivot. Now, his clients span schools, colleges, gyms, churches, retail, and event spaces, with museums on the list. Galois’s flexibility shines across these sectors, capturing a gymnasium’s vibrancy or a church’s tranquility in stunning detail. This adaptability lets Manuel tailor each tour to the client’s story, proving 360-degree tours transcend real estate.
Empowering Education: Easing Student Anxiety
Manuel’s work in education is a standout. Over the past year, Manuel Pearce Photography crafted tours for schools, earning praise from head teachers. These tours do more than showcase campuses—they help students with anxiety navigate transitions by virtually exploring new environments. Completing tours for four of 15 schools in a UK education trust signals growth potential. To amplify this impact, Manuel is investing in a stand at an exhibition for 100 head teachers, poised to expand his reach.
Future Focus: Growth and Innovation
Manuel’s vision is bold. The head teachers’ exhibition is a springboard to deepen his education sector presence, while 3D product scanning and museum projects loom on the horizon. With Galois’s cutting-edge features, Manuel Pearce Photography is redefining how UK institutions connect digitally, blending innovation with purpose.
