How we can help you

From a product launch to a private commission, the brief is never the same twice. These are the five things the studio is asked for most, and how each one usually runs.

  • Full coverage of the room and everything around it — keynote, candid and detail, delivered fast enough to be useful while the event is still news.

    Coverage

    • Conferences
    • Product launches
    • Award ceremonies

  • Images built to a brief and to a format, shot with the crop, the placement and the channel already decided, so nothing has to be salvaged in post.

    Deliverables

    • Campaign stills
    • Product
    • Brand libraries

  • Single objects on a built set, lit to the label and the liquid, delivered on the backgrounds and cut-outs a listing and a campaign each need.

    Deliverables

    • Bottles and glassware
    • Packaging
    • Serve suggestions

  • Dishes photographed as they leave the pass, with the room and the detail around them, cut for a menu, a listing and a feed from the same shoot.

    Coverage

    • Plated dishes
    • The pass
    • Room and interiors

  • BTS Productions (05) Coming soon

  • Automotive (06) Coming soon

  • Real Estate (07) Coming soon

  • Portraits that hold up next to each other — consistent enough to sit on one page, distinct enough that nobody looks interchangeable.

    Sessions

    • Executive
    • Editorial
    • Team and crew
