Not bought off a shelf
A stock image is a photograph of somebody else’s business.
When the poster over the door shows the room the customer is standing in, the campaign is about them, and that is a difference people notice without being able to say why.
Product, event and location photography, shot for the campaign it is going into. We shoot for dealerships, venues, restaurants, retailers and event promoters across North America, and the brief for a shoot is the artwork it has to fill — which is why one call-out can cover the product, the room and the staff instead of three.
What we shoot
Four kinds of shoot, all of them attached to a campaign we are making. If the same visit can cover the product, the room and the staff, it is one call-out rather than three.
Product Photography
The item as it actually is, lit and shot for the piece it is going into — the poster, the label, the ad or the listing — and composed for the crop that placement uses.
Event Photography
Bike nights, open houses, rides, openings and show nights. Coverage that has to work as next year’s campaign artwork, not just as an album.
Location & Interior Photography
The showroom, the service bay, the store, the venue. What a customer sees when they walk in, shot so it can carry a headline over it.
Staff & Portrait Photography
The people who actually work there, photographed on their own floor rather than against a backdrop that could be anywhere.
Photography is one line of work here.
A media production company that grew a marketing and advertising practice around its own cameras. Everything below is run by the same team, which is why the content, the campaign it belongs to and the night it lands on do not have to be scheduled across four companies.

What you get
Four things that decide whether a photograph is useful a month later, when somebody has to build the next piece out of it.
Shot against the piece
Every shoot is briefed against the artwork it feeds, so the frame leaves room for the type that is going over it and holds up at the size it will be printed.
Retouched and delivered sized
Full-resolution retouched files, plus the crops and formats each placement needs, delivered ready to place rather than ready to re-edit.
No stock standing in for the real thing
If the campaign shows a product, a room or a night, it is that product, that room and that night.
One team with the campaign
The people directing the shoot are the people who wrote the campaign and will design the printed piece, so nothing has to be re-shot because a brief moved.
