When the product has to be real

Commercial product photography produced at your location worldwide, with you or an authorized representative present during production.

Why photograph it

Some campaigns depend on the actual thing: the grain of a material, the way a surface takes light, the exact proportion of a product in the hand. Those are captured, not constructed.

A shoot is also the only route that produces a negative you own outright for the campaign: real frames of a real object, lit deliberately, that can be finished any number of ways afterwards.

What you gain

  • Physical accuracy

    The product photographed as it actually is, in proportion, colour and material.

  • Controlled lighting

    Light shaped for the product and the campaign rather than accepted as found.

  • Production control

    Tethered review on set, so key creative decisions are approved while the setup still exists.

  • One complete workflow

    Shoot and high-end retouching handled by the same person, to one standard.

A good fit if

The campaign depends on the real product and you need deliberate control over how it is photographed and presented.

If the product exists but the environment around it does not have to, AI-assisted imagery may be the more sensible production route.

How it works

  1. Tell me about the projectProduct, usage, deadline and any references or brand guidelines you already have.
  2. Scope and quotationDeliverables, location, dates, licensing and expenses confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
  3. ProductionThe shoot, on location, with you or your representative present and tethered review on set.
  4. Retouching and deliveryPost-production to the approved direction, delivered as finished images.

The full production workflow is set out on the photography process page.

Why work with me

Fifteen years of commercial photography and high-end retouching, which means the shoot is planned around what the finishing will need rather than handed over and hoped for.

You talk to the person taking the photographs and the person finishing them, because they are the same person. One standard, one point of accountability.

    This was my first project with Ivan and I'm extremely pleased with not only the level of proficiency he provided, but the fast turnaround time. Ivan made the process simple, and allowed me to request a few changes before we finished everything up. I will be hiring him again for similar requests in the future!

What happens after the shoot?

Retouching to the approved direction, then delivery of the finished images. RAW files are not included unless agreed in writing.
