OUR SERVICES

Having professional product photography not only helps you communicate a story, but also helps move consumers further along their buying journey from awareness to conversion.

One image can be the make or break, and we strategically create commercial photography designed to GET THE CLICK!

E-commerce

Ecommerce product photography is the art of producing high-quality commercial images to be used in sales of products and services online. Good product photography remains a crucial aspect of selling online.

A quality image implies a quality product. Showcase your products in the best possible light with multiple angles, close-up details and crisp, clear packaging shots.

As an experienced photography agency, we shoot imagery that sells, supporting your brand and promoting your products online.

Creative Photography

Powerful images designed to inspire, inform, provoke and entertain. Freedom to create any look or setting, generating desire for your product is our pleasure and passion.

Stop motion and GIFs

The beauty of stop motion and GIF is that can bring your products to life, giving the illusion of magic and having them move on their own.

Stop motion is highly effective, short and loopable which increases your engagement and watch time.

Stop motion does a great job selling services that are hard to visualize and allows you to take a fresh look at your product

Lifestyle Photography

Capture your products in a styled environment that communicates the feel of your brand. Drawing inspiration from ingredients, brand ethos or the settings in which your product is used.

"78% of online shoppers want to see more products

bought to life through imagery."

How it works?

1. Discovery Phase

In this phase, we take the time to find out a little more about your brand, and your photography requirements. You will be asked to complete a short questionnaire that helps us understand your objectives, target market, brand personality.

2. Sign-on

This is the most formal part of the process. It’s where the photography contract and invoices are issued. You will be asked for 50% of the payment to secure your booking.

3. Planning Phase

During this phase, we review the brief and create a shoot plan with mood boards (if required). Some clients already have a comprehensive brief, others need more guidance on the best creative direction for their brand.

4. Pre-Production

Here we look at what props and backdrops are required for the shoot. Sometimes no additional props are required. Other times it can take hours to find that perfect prop! If extensive time is required to source a prop then a prop sourcing fee may be charged.

5. Shoot Day

The time spent shooting depends on the quantity of images required, the complexity of each shot, and the number of different set-ups required (e.g. flatlay vs lifestyle vs eCommerce shots). We tend to bundle the same category of shots on the same day.

6. Post-Production

During this stage your images will be culled, edited and uploaded to a gallery for your final selection. Reflective products, eCommerce images etc. usualy need more editing time.

OUR PRICES

Over the years, we have discovered that a one-size fits all approach to pricing doesn’t work for all businesses.

There are many variables in product photography to consider such as how much styling is required (minimal vs highly styled shots), how complex the retouching is, how many scenes are required, where the images will be used (advertising vs social media), how many images are required, and more.

Common Questions

Your questions answered

1How do I get started?

We’ll ask you to fill out a short creative brief so we can understand what you’re looking for and quote your project! It’s important to put as much detail on your brief as possible to ensure we’re all on the same page!

2Which package should I choose?
Every business is different and has different needs. Not quite sure which features you absolutely need and where you can get the best bang for your buck? Give us a shout at info@joylightstudio.com. We’re straight shooters. We’ll work with you to figure out the package that will meet your needs and gives you the best return on investment.

3What are your payment terms?
We like to keep it simple. You’ll make a 50% down payment on your project total to secure your booking and get the creative started. The remaining 50% is due upon project completion. Our online invoicing system is easy and secure and we accept all major credit cards, debit cards and e-check.

4Will I have a good idea of what the final content will look like? Will you provide creative direction?
Absolutely! We use a platform called Milanote to draw up your pre-production where you can collaborate with us on creative ideas and the details of the shoot. Once everything is fleshed out, we’ll ask you to give a final approval on the board so we can get started on the shoot!

5What is a revision round?
We consider a revision round to be any single list of constructive feedback, revisions, or changes following a presentation. Each package includes the standard number of revisions that we’ve found to be effective in delivering a great product to our clients. In the rare case that you might want additional revision rounds, we’ll ask if you’d like to add it to your project invoice at a prorated rate.

6Do I own the images?
We retain the ownership and copyright of all content we create but we will grant you a commercial license, meaning that you can use our images anywhere in the world for any business purpose with no expiration dates as long as you are not selling our images.

7What is your turnaround time?
7-21 days from shoot date depending on current workload and creative concept. If you do have a deadline, please let us know and we will do everything we can to accommodate it!

8Do you return my products?
If you would like your products to be returned, please include a return post bag. Otherwise products will be stored for up to 6 months.

9Do you offer refunds?
Due to the nature of the work, no refunds will be issued. This is why your brief is SO important. However, you may request a reshoot given a valid explanation.
