Services for jewellery photography, industrial photography, furniture photography, food photography, fashion accessories photography, covers Greater Toronto Area Why hire Professional Commercial Product and Corporate or Industrial Photographer? There are both technical and aesthetic choices to make, including the decision to capture the feel of natural light, or to add light for a more dramatic look for advertising photography. Adding and controlling light in a space is a skill that requires continual practice and experimentation. Capturing accurate color is one of the most challenging aspects in photography. There are instances when accurate color is not pleasing to the eye, which may require some artistic license when color correcting an image, for the purpose of adding warmth or creating a cooler palette. Perspective correction is key in capturing accurate lines and minimizing spatial distortion, however it may sometimes be abandoned for the purpose of creating a dramatic visual effect. The choice of lens will further control how a space is represented by compressing or expanding the perspective, as well as the height and distance from the area that the camera is placed. Also consider that for every hour a photographer is onsite actually photographing, there is generally 2 hours to few days of image preparation and post-production time spent, getting the images to a state suitable for proper viewing and printing. We deliver high quality digital images, after post processing for sharpness, color correction and other high level complex digital image editing. PRICING STRUCTURE
Please remember that every commercial photography session is different and it is difficult to provide generic estimates that cover every situation. Therefore, if you're in need of a product photographer, please give us a call so we can provide you with an estimate specific to your project
Pricing Structure:
We can supply you with no obligation quote priced on the basis of:
• Product Photography: the size and weight of the items to be photographed, the number of products to be photographed, and the number of images per product
• Corporate Photography - time spent on location
• The complexity of lighting set up and the number of products that can be shot using the dedicated lighting
• The complexity of the composition, and whether props or models are required
• Any digital post processing requirements you may need for your presentation
• Resolution required for your project,
There are three pricing options:
1. Day rate if it's just catalog/website stuff. This may be the more cost effective option for you depending on the complexity of lighting and product presentation requirements.
2. Exact figures depend on many factors, such as how many product you need to be shot and how many images of each of them, as well as how you want to use them (from magazine front page to simple, small images for your website catalogue).
3. Budget option to supply simple jpg images solely for website use, where multiple single items are photographed in a similar manner on a plain white, grey or black background. Location photography, staged product photography with props and all other types of photography are priced by the project. Please note:
Any product with a highly reflective surface, like jewelry, or any clear product like glassware, requires special lighting techniques and may often take significantly more time to photograph than typical products
PROCEDURES
Our photography is undertaken in three phases:
• Pre-Production: The product is thoroughly cleaned to remove any dust/finger prints, surface imperfections, etc. The stylist or art director usually representing your company may need to prepare the product/setting as per the requirement of the project and the theme. We will discreetly suggest the best approach to accommodate vision of your project
• Photo Shoot: We prepare lighting set up specifically for your product. We use a combination of lenses, camera settings and special accessories to translate the nature of your product to digital images effectively. This requires an in-depth understanding of all the aspects involved.
• Post Production: This is the critical phase of the project, where the photographs are re-touched and all necessary advanced post-production adjustments are performed. We will fix any undesired and out of control parameters. We may also remove/add any distracting objects. Background removal/adding may be undertaken on case to case basis. The resulting images are crisp, clear and ready for printing on any of the materials required by the client / advertising agency.
