Frequently Asked Questions
Do your Still Photographers work alongside video crews?
Yes. Our photographers frequently work alongside Assignment Desk video crews, capturing production stills, behind-the-scenes content, and standalone photography during the same shoot day. They coordinate with the DP to avoid interfering with video captures while maximizing photo opportunities.
What style of photography do your shooters specialize in?
Our Still Photographers specialize in corporate, editorial, and commercial photography — executive portraits, event documentation, product shots, and branded content. They deliver clean, professional images optimized for web, print, and social media distribution.
How quickly are photos delivered after the shoot?
Delivery timelines depend on the scope of the project. For urgent needs, same-day selects of key images are often available. Standard delivery of edited, color-corrected images typically takes 3-5 business days. Rush delivery can be arranged for an additional fee.
Do photographers provide their own equipment?
Yes. Our Still Photographers arrive with professional camera bodies, multiple lenses, portable lighting equipment, and tethered shooting setups. Their kits are designed for the flexibility and speed required on professional production sets.
Can I book a Still Photographer for a headshot session?
Absolutely. Executive headshots are one of our most popular still photography bookings. Our photographers bring portable studio lighting and backdrops, or can shoot environmental portraits in your office space. A typical headshot session can photograph 10-20 people in a half day.
