  • Up to 3 correction iterations included
  • Feedback addressed promptly
  • We don't proceed until you're happy with the direction

  • Color correction, background cleanup, retouching included
  • Final samples shared for sign-off

What Makes a Great Shoot

A little preparation before you ship goes a long way toward getting the exact photos you envision.

πŸ“

Detailed Shot List

Specify each angle: front, back, side, close-up detail, open/closed, etc. The more specific, the better.

πŸ–ΌοΈ

Reference Images

Share competitor photos, mood boards, or examples of styles you like. Visual references remove guesswork.

✨

Clean Products

Send products clean and ready to shoot. Fingerprints, dust, and packaging wrinkles show up under studio lighting.

🎨

Brand Guidelines

If you have brand guidelines (colors, style, feel), share them. We'll ensure photos fit your overall brand aesthetic.

πŸ“

Platform Specs

Tell us where photos will be used (Amazon, Shopify, Instagram) so we can optimize size, format, and aspect ratios.

πŸ”„

Product Variants

If you have multiple colors or sizes, clearly label each item so we can organize your catalog efficiently.

Common Questions

How long does the whole process take? +
From when we receive your products: white background shots typically take 3–5 business days, hero shots 5–7 business days, and lifestyle/custom shoots vary. Rush processing is available.
What if my products get damaged in shipping? +
We handle all products with extreme care. We recommend insuring your products for their full value when shipping to us. If a product is damaged in our possession, we'll contact you immediately to discuss the best course of action.
Can I review photos before my products are shipped back? +
Yes! We deliver your digital files before returning your products. If you need any adjustments, we'll make them before you receive your final files.
Do I have to return my products, or can you dispose of them? +
We can do either. If you don't need the products returned, simply let us know β€” this saves on return shipping costs. We'll responsibly dispose of or donate items you don't want returned.
What if I'm not happy with the photos? +
We offer revisions on any photos that don't meet our quality standards or your provided specifications. We won't rest until you're satisfied with the results.
