Select either path to explore.
ONE-OFF PROJECTS
For a specific launch, campaign or product range. We agree the direction and image requirements around what that project needs to achieve.
The starting point: what you’re making, where it will be used and when it’s needed.
ONGOING WORK
For photography needs across multiple projects. We discuss what’s coming up and whether an ongoing arrangement would suit your brand.
The starting point: what’s on the horizon and how your photography needs may develop.
OUR PROCESS
Start with the products and what the imagery needs to do. We discuss your purpose, required images, intended placements and timing.
Creative photography: A product launch needing campaign imagery for a website and social placements.
eCommerce photography: A new product range needing consistent listing views and detail images.
We shape the direction and proposal, then develop the detailed shoot plan after booking.
Creative photography: A detailed board covering concepts, styling, image purpose and production needs.
eCommerce photography: A product-and-view plan covering SKUs, required angles, formats and exceptions.
The plan becomes the shoot. Products and other requirements are checked and prepared before we capture the agreed imagery.
Creative photography: Styled sets, lighting, action and source elements for the planned compositions.
eCommerce photography: Repeatable setups for each agreed product-and-view combination.
Each image is finished with the whole set in mind. We select, retouch, adapt and quality-check the work against the agreed plan.
Creative photography: Combining source material, refining compositions and preparing agreed adaptations.
eCommerce photography: Matching the set while preserving product accuracy and consistent presentation.
From initial release to final files. Once the remaining balance clears, the initial images are released for review.
Creative photography: The approved images and agreed adaptations, ready for their intended placements.
eCommerce photography: The completed product image set in the agreed formats and naming structure.
A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
From choosing a service
to shaping your first brief.
Creative Product Photography is for launches, campaigns and brand content that need a distinctive visual direction. eCommerce and Packshot Photography focuses on clear, accurate views that present your products consistently across listings, catalogues and ranges. If you’re unsure, tell us about your products and where the images will be used. We’ll help you find the right approach.
Tell us about both in one enquiry. We’ll look at how the images will be used and recommend a scope that covers the work you need.
Tell us about your products, roughly how many need photographing, where the images will be used and any target date. Share any views, creative ideas or existing image guidelines you have in mind. These help us understand the photography, styling and finishing involved. Your brief doesn’t need to be complete. We can work through the open questions together.
We discuss what you need, shape an initial direction and prepare a proposal. Once the proposal is accepted, your signed agreement and booking payment secure the project. We then develop the detailed shoot plan, covering the images, styling, formats and anything that needs sourcing or preparing. You review and approve that plan before production begins.
We’ll confirm the delivery details and what needs to arrive before you send anything. Pack your products securely and tell us about anything fragile, perishable, valuable or needing special handling. You cover delivery and return costs, with return arrangements agreed for the project. Products are returned by delivery rather than collection in person.
We discuss your target date and set out the expected timing for your project. Scheduling depends on the approved brief, suitable products and other agreed requirements being in place. After photography and retouching, images are released for review once the outstanding project charges have cleared. We then complete the agreed revisions and adaptations before supplying the final files.
Our standard licence covers worldwide digital use. eCommerce images can be used in ordinary online product listings and digital commerce indefinitely; paid digital advertising use is covered for two years. Creative images are licensed for two years across your websites, organic social media, email, digital PR and paid digital advertising. Usage rights begin once all project charges have cleared, and copyright stays with Squared Studios. Your project documents set out the licence that applies.
