What clients say
“We send around 400 garments a week and the thing that matters most is that image 400 looks like image 1. That consistency is what we were not getting before.”
Head of E-commerce
Online fashion retailer, United Kingdom
Example wording — not a real client quote
“They took the post-production off our plate entirely. We shoot, they deliver to our naming convention, and I stopped having a retouching backlog.”
Studio Manager
Product photography studio, Germany
Example wording — not a real client quote
“The free trial is what convinced us. Two images, our brief, back the next morning — we could see exactly what we would be buying.”

Frequently asked questions
How much footage do you need from me?
For a quote, the number to tell us is the shooting ratio — how many hours were shot for the finished runtime. That predicts the edit budget better than runtime does.
Can you deliver every aspect ratio we need?
Give us the deliverables matrix in the brief and it is planned as a single job.
What loudness do you master to?
They are not interchangeable, and mastering to the wrong one is a rejection. Tell us where it is going and it is mastered to that.
Are captions included?
Most social video is watched with the sound off, so captions are a reach decision as much as an accessibility one. FCC rules also require them on most video that has aired on US television.
Who owns the project files?
Under US copyright law work by an outside contractor does not transfer automatically without a written assignment, so this is worth confirming with any supplier.
