Photography

Integrated services with high quality images

A cohesive approach to your visual marketing

Graphic Designers and Photographers work together often. I’d be willing to argue that one cannot exist without the other as quality photography can make or break a project – and photography without professional graphic design to communicate the message is worthless.

I can set up a photo shoot that specifically fits the specific design I’m working on and can even shoot the image and place it in the layout before I tear down the shot. Don’t have enough background on either side of the image? Is the one product in the shot hitting the text in the headline? No problem, I move things around and re-shoot without much lost time. No retouching or massive time investments to make the photography fit the project. It’s incredibly efficient and can be quite fun!

Samples of my Work

past projects that have utilized my photography and digital retouching services

Equipment and Technology

I use a Canon DSLR camera and have studio flash equipment for photoshoots.  I can take your items and shoot them at my in-home studio or shoot on location for a fee. For digital retouching, I use the latest version of Adobe Photoshop. I have some filters and plugins setup to aid me in things like smoothing skin or applying modifications to the color of images based on whatever they will be used for. I also utilize stock photography as well to supplement the images I work with like adding sky (especially when it’s shot on a dreary day). With the advent of AI, I would suspect that the number of tools available to adjust photos would change in the future.

Pricing Structure

I price all of my photo work per job. For small 1-2 shot items, I will include that into the project cost of the entire job. For larger photo shoots, we’ll establish hourly or day rates for whatever they may be. All of my photo work includes the full rights to the images once the invoice has been paid.
