Each client’s needs are wildly different, so once we learn your goals and vision, we’ll create a detailed custom proposal tailored to meet your requirements.

Pre-Production
Pre-Production

We’ll confirm production timelines, book any necessary creative partners or talent, and dial in mood boards and story boards. If we’re shooting in our studio, we’ll ask you to ship your products to us while we source ingredients, props, and do test run-throughs. We’ll have the shot list approved (or create one for you to approve if we’re handling the art direction). A little (er, *a lot*) of planning helps make a smooth production.

Production Day(s)
Production Day(s)

Today’s the day! Depending on the scale of the project, shoots can run between one day or a string of several days. Whether you’re in the studio with us, communicating remotely, or on location, you can sit back and relax while we handle all food, prop and set styling, lighting, producing, directing, and shooting.

Post-Production
Post-Production

Editing is where the magic happens, and it’s all done in-house! Within each project we include full retouching including colour grading, backdrop replacements and removals, composites and more complex photoshop work. For videos, text and graphics can be overlaid, with license free music included if you would like.

Delivery

Final assets are delivered via a downloadable WeTransfer link, with one round of revisions included in every project. Images will be delivered in high resolution as well as any additional resolutions requested. Videos will be delivered 4K or 1080p.
