Product Photography for busy, product-based business owners and creators!
Hi! My name is Chelsea and if you are a busy creator with a product-based business in Calgary or anywhere else (you can ship me your product from anywhere in the world) who is in search of a photographer to help make your products MORE VISIBLE to bring in MORE SALES, I’m here to help!
If you are the owner of a product-based business, you know the feeling of always needing images to post on your website, Etsy store and social media! Like many small business owners, you may feel overwhelmed just trying to keep up with creating your products and interacting with your clients. Trying to make the time to take photos to advertise your beautiful creations, especially if photography isn’t your strong point… can feel overwhelming. Whether you create baby toys, children’s clothing, hair bows, handmade jewelry or are an author with a new book to share with the world, your life is probably full to the brim and you don’t have time for one more thing!
That’s what I’m here for! My product-based brand sessions are created JUST for business owners like you who want a hands-off approach to the photography aspect of your marketing. You are looking for someone you can entrust your vision and brand to, who you can send your products to and have them do all the work… finding models, creating beautiful flat lays and sending you a gallery of beautiful images ready for you to use immediately once it is all done. Once you’ve sent your products to me, you’ll barely have to lift a finger! I do all the work for you! I’ll find models who are the appropriate age to model with your products for some lifestyle images, source props for flat lays and create ALL the magic for you… in the form of images that you can hardly wait to post online and that will excite your followers and convert into more sales for your business!
What I offer:
Clean, true-to-life editing to display the accurate colours of your products!
A variety of props to add a special touch to your product flatlays!
Models to bring your product images to life!
Care and attention to the details of your unique brand!
As a fellow small business owner, I know you put your heart and soul into your business and I understand what is at stake when it comes to how many sales you make. The ability to effectively sell your products can mean the difference between your child being able to be involved in that extracurricular activity that they are passionate about, or you being able to save up for your retirement. I would be honoured to come alongside you and use my skills to showcase YOUR skills and bring your products to life for those who are considering making a purchase from your online store. My goal is to elevate your business and make you successful, so that you can reach every single one of your dreams.
The Product Photography Experience
1. Connection! We connect and you fill out a questionnaire. We communicate and come up with a perfect plan to show your beautiful products to the world! You sign the contract and submit payment.
2. Shipping and/or pickup! I offer product pickups on designated days for businesses within Calgary city limits. Live outside of Calgary? No problem! You can ship your product to me and the rest of the process will continue on my end as soon as your products have been delivered to me!
3. Pre-session prep! Once I receive your product, I get to work! I prep the product if it has become slightly squished or wrinkled in transport. By this time I’ve likely found the models who will bring your product to life in photos, and I will coordinate a time to meet with them for the session. Depending on what package you have chosen and the combination of images you would like, the session might be split into more than one day. No matter when the session takes place or how many days I continue working at it, there is no need for you to worry as I’ll be taking care of it all on my end. You can continue spending your time doing what you love… creating products and running your business, or maybe even taking a much needed break!
4. Session day/s! The big day has arrived and while you carry on with your life and business, I will be creating beautiful product photos, flat lays, and directing and photographing the models I have chosen who will bring your products to life in the lifestyle images! If you’ve chosen to add any extras such as video clips, those will be created on session days as well, either by myself or an assistant!
5. Editing! After the session, I edit your images!
6. Delivery of the images! Once I am finished editing your session, you will receive a gallery full of images where you can choose your favourites in the amount included in the package you have chosen, with the option but no obligation to purchase additional images from the session.
7. After the session, you are ready to post your beautiful images and show your product to all your potential clients on your website, social media accounts and Etsy store! The options for where you can use your product photos are limitless, and if you need ideas I’ve got plenty! The products used in the photo sessions will either be kept for future brand session collaborations, given to models as payment, or can be returned to you if you prefer by you picking them up or arranging for shipment back to you.
