Frequently Asked Questions

Project usually take 2 to 4 weeks from green-lighting to final file delivery. This allows time for concept development, prop sourcing, shoot execution, and high-end retouching. If you have an urgent product launch, let me know and we can discuss rush availability.

Absolutely. While having one helps speed up the process, I’m happy to work alongside you to create creative concepts. We can talk through your goals and aesthetic, and I’ll create a starting-point mood board based on our conversation.

Yes! Whether you have an internal creative team or an outside agency, I’m used to collaborating seamlessly within established brand guidelines, shot lists, and existing workflows.

It depends on the complexity of the art direction! A single, beautifully styled "hero" shot with intricate food styling or complex lighting might take an hour or two to build. On the other hand, if we are capturing multiple angles or product flavors within a single, established set, we can generate a much higher volume of assets. During scoping, we'll build a detailed shot list to maximize your shoot day.

Yes. I'll work with you to determine the shoot schedule based on product shipping time, availability, and the date assets are needed.

Yes. Clients can attend in person or review images through a live Capture One gallery and give feedback remotely. It’s important to note that fast, consolidated feedback keeps the day moving.

I have a wide variety of props and surfaces in my studio available for us to use. If your project requires props that are not in my current inventory, I’m happy to source options for us to look at together at no additional sourcing fee. During pre-production, you’ll receive a mood board with recommended props and surfaces to review and adjust as needed.

Your assets will be delivered via a secure Google Drive link. You'll receive high-resolution files tailored for web, digital ads, and social media (JPEGs for still imagery and MP4s for GIFs and motion). Need specific dimensions or color profiles for your dev team? Just let me know before delivery.

Studio works well for controlled product imagery and close lifestyle-style scenes. A real location is better when the background needs believable depth, such as a full kitchen, living room, or outdoor environment.
