How it Works
Frequently Ask Questions
Pricing
Do you charge per-photo or per-product? We charge per-photo. This means if you have two products and you want 3 photos each you will be charged for a total of 6 photos.
How much will it cost? The biggest factor in the overall cost of a project is the number of photos being ordered. Because it’s much more efficient to shoot one large project versus several smaller ones, our pricing model includes significant discounts as the size of your order increases.
Can I get the quantity rate if I have many smaller projects? Our rates decrease with a larger order because it is more efficient for us to shoot one large project than it is to shoot several smaller projects. Because of this, each project is priced separately based on the size of each order.
Process
Do I need to be located near Lagos to be a client? You don’t need to be in Lagos, to work with us! In fact, over 95% of our clients are located outside Lagos. All you need to do is get in touch with us via telephone or email, and we’ll discuss the logistics.
How long do photography projects take? Most projects are delivered in 1-2 weeks, excluding holidays, from when we receive your products and payment. If your project involves a large number of photos this may add to the production time.
During particularly busy periods lead times may increase slightly so please feel free to contact us and we’ll be glad to confirm expected production times.
What if I would like an image to be re-shot? If we’ve made a mistake we will gladly re-shoot or edit the photos to make them right, no charge. Re-shoots for artistic or editorial reasons, or resulting from client error or omission will be quoted at the time of the change request.
Delivery
In what format are my photos delivered? Standard product photos are delivered as a high resolution, 300 DPI jpeg using maximum quality settings measuring 3000×3000 pixels in size. Depending on product shape, excess white space may be cropped leaving the longest dimension at least 3000 pixels, while the other dimension is cropped to fit the shape of the product being photographed.
Hero Shots are 7360 × 4912 pixels (before cropping) and are delivered in a layered tiff format with transparency.
In addition to the high resolution originals, our server also allows you to chose from several smaller size jpeg images for use on the web.
How do you deliver my finished photos? Delivery of completed photos occurs via our private image hosting server. Upon completion of your project, you will be provided a unique link and password. Log-in to our image server to view and instantly download your high resolution images.
What kind of license comes with the images? Upon final delivery, the photographs become licensed to you for use on a royalty-free basis. This means you are free to use the photographs in any of your publications as many times as you like, with as wide a distribution as you like, without ever having to pay us royalties for their use. We allow the use of these photos in all forms of publication including print advertising, packaging, web, television, etc. We do retain the copyrights for delivered photos and the photographs may not be re-sold to any third party without prior written permission.
