Beyond Listings: A Guide to Business Media

Half of what we shoot isn't a listing at all. Business media is the other pillar: photography and video that market a company, a team, or a body of work. Here's the map.

Headshot or brand session?

The most common question. A corporate headshot is one clean, standardized portrait, quick, matched across the team, perfect for LinkedIn and the website. A brand session is a longer, on-location shoot with multiple looks and environmental, lifestyle, and detail images, built to give a founder, agent, or consultant a whole library of on-brand content. Different products, different price points: headshots from $200, brand sessions from $750.

Commercial video and events

Training and onboarding videos, promotional films, venue and space marketing, and event coverage (launches, award nights, conferences) are all custom-quoted by scope. The thing that surprises most clients: one well-planned shoot day usually produces a month of publishable content when it's edited into cuts, reels, and stills.

Trades and contractors

If you build decks, pools, kitchens, or roofs, your finished work is your portfolio, and phone pictures undersell it. We photograph completed projects the way we photograph luxury listings, and our drone documentation service adds dated aerial proof of work for insurance, lenders, and marketing.

Content retainers

For businesses that need to publish constantly, monthly retainers set a cadence and content mix (shoot days, headshot touch-ups for new hires, social cuts) so there's always fresh material. Plans are flexible and custom-quoted, and they're the most cost-effective way to keep a brand visually alive.
