We get excited about helping our clients improve their visual content!

Let us tell your story in images.

The vital need for a business to stand out visually in any branding effort is a trend that will only continue, and it only becomes more profound in younger consumers.   In this recent article from INC. Magazine, the following statistics on visual marketing stand out dramatically.

• The average person gets distracted in eight seconds, though a mere 2.8 seconds is enough to distract some people.
• 81 percent of people only skim the content they read online. (Usability expert Jakob Nielsen has written that the average user reads at most 20 to 28 percent of words during an average visit.)
• People form a first impression in a mere 50 milliseconds.
• An estimated 84 percent of communications will be visual by 2018.
• Posts that include images produce 650 percent higher engagement than text-only posts.
• Tumblr's active user base has grown by 120 percent.
• Pinterest's active user base has grown by 111 percent.
• Instagram's active user base has grown by 64 percent.

In summation... the future of marketing and branding is image-based more so than text-based, and you have a very small window of opportunity to capture the attention of your audience with the graphic content you do choose to use.

Photography and Digital Branding Services

1.  On location head-shots & physical plant office shots (lightly edited (no photoshop) digital masters with usage/print release).  

DC5A4413 Nothing fancy needed!  Just sharp, clean, well composed branded images of you - doing what you do. 

2.  On location or in-studio professional portraits:   Custom headshots, fully edited portrait digital master with usage/print release.

We can improve your visual branding with a variety of shooting and production styles

In studio or out,  images that capture the brand you want to project. 

3.  Team Composites (studio portraits set into photo-realistic OR purposely surreal digital environments) -  These are modular photoshop documents that allow for easy updating of team photos as team members turnover – without requiring the full team for updates.   One person at a time, and backgrounds/settings can be updated and changed as well.

Editing includes a full portrait retouch as needed, and an accurate photoshop selection of each edited file.    These can then be set into individual portrait scenes and/or a full team composite.

Team Composite scene building: We then design a branded setting and add edited team member files into the setting, blending for effect.   Includes delivery of unrestricted team master file.

This modular file can be updated with the removal of departed team members, and/or the shooting editing and compositing of new team members, updating backgrounds, and delivery of updated master file.

Each group scene is shot individually, to maximize lighting, razor sharp focus and individual posing on each subject.

We are able to keep your team photo up to date, even as you add members!    

Or maybe you just want to repurpose it as a Christmas Card project!
