I worked with Accotx on a HMRC reclaim and overall, they did ultimately deliver on their promise, which I appreciate. The process did take longer than any of us expected, partly due to external delays with the tax authorities, and partly because there were some hiccups in communication and follow-up. However, despite those challenges, they stayed professional and stuck to the original agreed terms. If you’re considering using them, be prepared to stay in regular contact to keep things moving along. They are absolutely capable, have the expertise and willing to work with you, and overall improving their services over time. I would certainly return for any future needs.Posted on Google![]()

I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.Posted on Google![]()

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

FAQ's - Cheap Accountants For Photographers In Peckham
Everything you need to know about our elite bookkeeping service.
You are not legally required to appoint an accountant as a sole trader, but most photographers find one invaluable. We prepare and file your Self Assessment return, check that you are claiming all allowable expenses such as equipment, travel and software, and help you budget for tax across the year. This reduces the risk of errors, penalties and unexpected bills.
Making Tax Digital requires VAT-registered businesses to keep digital records and file VAT Returns using compatible software. If your photography turnover passes the VAT threshold, you will need to comply, and we can set up the right processes for you. Even below the threshold, digital record keeping makes your bookkeeping cleaner and year-end accounts much simpler.
Yes. We manage VAT registration, quarterly VAT Returns and ongoing advice on what you can and cannot reclaim. Photographers often have complex VAT questions around equipment purchases, studio hire, overseas clients and digital sales, and we help you apply the rules correctly. This keeps your filings accurate and avoids unnecessary HMRC enquiries.
Typical allowable expenses include camera bodies, lenses, lighting, memory cards, editing software subscriptions, insurance, studio rent, props, travel to shoots and a proportion of home office costs. The rules depend on how each item is used, so we review your spending and confirm what is claimable. Getting this right can significantly reduce your taxable profit.
Yes, we run payroll for photographers who employ studio staff, retouchers, second shooters or admin help. This includes calculating PAYE and National Insurance, issuing payslips, handling starter and leaver information and reporting to HMRC in real time. We can also advise on the most tax-efficient way to engage regular freelancers.
There is no single answer, because it depends on your profits, how you take money out of the business and your plans for growth. A limited company can be more tax-efficient at higher profit levels, but it brings additional filing and Corporation Tax obligations. We review your figures and recommend the structure that suits your photography business.
Everything can be handled online, which suits photographers who are often out on location or editing late. You share records securely, we prepare the accounts and returns, and we communicate by email, phone or video call at times that work for you. There is no need to travel to an office, and you still get the same level of personal support.
Key dates include the 31 January Self Assessment filing and payment deadline, 5 April for the end of the tax year, and quarterly VAT deadlines if you are registered. Limited companies also face Corporation Tax and confirmation statement deadlines. We track these dates for you and make sure everything is submitted well before time.
