Product & Advertising photography

What does a commercial photographer do?

As a commercial photographer I complete product and advertising photography with the aim of helping businesses reach their marketing goals. Creating photographic images for all types of businesses. From large businesses running international marketing campaigns through to local business preparing to distribute letter box mailers in their area. No matter how big or small your business or project is, I can help.

Lifestyle product images

A commercial photographer can help with creating lifestyle images which show your product in use. This is a great way of making the customer fall in love with your product, by including it in a visual story.  Finding the best location to base your products story within. Then waiting for the best time of day and add our own light to further enhance the image. Making sure your product is the absolute hero of the show is the name of the game. After image capture is completed work on the computer begins until the image is the best it can be, and the resulting image story (and your product) sparkles like a diamond.

Product images for clear cutting

Another key service I offer as a commercial photographer is capturing product images for clear cutting. This is also sometimes called deep etching. To achieve a good result I photograph a product (ideally) in a studio setup. Then the background behind the product is removed. This enables the product to be inserted into marketing material. The image can be inserted into websites and brochures with the background of the page showing through. The product then sits perfectly on top of anything behind or underneath it.

The resulting images will allow you to reach more customers. And the images will make sure that they become buyers due to the value perception high quality product photography brings.
