Commercial product photography for Los Angeles brands that need more than a clean product shot. We create studio, lifestyle, on-model and conceptual imagery around what makes the product worth noticing and how it needs to work for the brand.
From skincare and beauty to jewelry, apparel, footwear and wellness, we focus on color, material, texture and detail while creating images for advertising, product launches, brand websites, social and ongoing commercial use.

Product Photography Services
Choose the Right Approach for Your Product and Brand
Studio Product Photography
When color, material, finish and small details need to look exactly right, studio gives us complete control over the image. We shape light and reflections so glass keeps its depth, metal reads cleanly, labels stay sharp and textures still feel true to the product.
- Light shaped around the material and finish
- Accurate color and fine product detail
- Clean images that still feel specific to your brand
Lifestyle Product Photography
Choose lifestyle when the setting helps explain the product, how it is used or where it fits into someone’s day. We use location, surfaces, props, hands or talent to add context and personality without letting the scene compete with the product.
- Show the product in a believable setting
- Create a visual world around the brand
- Useful for advertising, social and product launches
On-Model Product Photography
On-model imagery makes sense when seeing the product worn, held or used helps people understand it better. We direct talent, styling and camera angle so fit, scale, proportion, movement and key details all read clearly while the product remains the focus.
- Show fit, proportion and scale clearly
- Direct talent around the product
- Add movement without losing important details
Conceptual Product Photography
For hero images, campaigns and launches, sometimes the product needs more than a straightforward setup. We start with what makes it distinctive, then shape the lighting, set, props and composition around its form, color, material, function or packaging.
- Turn product features into the visual idea
- Creative direction, set design and prop styling
- Create standout imagery for campaigns and launches

Product & Lifestyle Photography FAQ
Questions Brands Ask Before Booking
These are the questions we hear most before a brand books their first shoot with us. If yours isn't here, just reach out and we'll be happy to help.
01
Process, Shipping & Timing
Can I send you my products, and how does the process work?
Yes, you can send your products to our studio, and you don't have to be in Los Angeles to work with us. A lot of our clients do it this way, and we've made it easy.
We usually start with a quick remote meeting to talk through your brand, your products, and what you want the photos to do for you. From there, we put together a shot list and styling plan, and you can send your products over to the studio. If you'd like lifestyle photos with models, we can either work with models you've already picked out, or we can help you find the right ones. We work with a lot of modeling agencies, so that part is easy for us. We can also take care of everything from hair and makeup to wardrobe styling and finding the right locations.
After the shoot, you can review the photos remotely and approve your favorites. We edit the ones you choose and send everything back finished and ready to use. You get great images without having to be there or manage a thing.
Where do you shoot in Los Angeles?
We shoot at our studio in Los Angeles and on location around the city, depending on what your product needs. Studio days give us full control over the lighting and backgrounds, which is great for sharp, polished product shots. Location days let us put your product in a real setting, like a beach or a sunny poolside spot, so lifestyle photos feel natural. Plenty of brands do a bit of both, and we're happy to help you decide what works best.
I'm launching a new product. When should I book the shoot?
The sooner the better, but a good rule of thumb is about 3 to 4 weeks before you need the photos if models, hair and makeup, or wardrobe styling are involved. For a simpler studio shoot, 1 to 2 weeks is usually enough. Tighter timelines can often work too, depending on our availability. If your launch date is already set, just tell us and we'll build the plan around it.
What do I need to have ready before the shoot?
All you really need is your product. Send as many units as you'd like photographed, and a few extras are always helpful in case something needs a touch-up or a different look during the shoot. If you have brand guidelines, a color palette, or some reference images, feel free to share them, but they're totally optional. We handle the rest at the studio, including lighting, backdrops, props, and styling.
Do you shoot Black Friday and Cyber Monday product photography?
Yes, we do. Whether you need a focused set of product photos or a bigger campaign with images for website banners, email, and social, we'll plan the shoot around your launch date and wherever the photos need to run.
We have Black Friday and holiday photography packages, plus a timeline planner that helps you work backward from your campaign date.

Do you shoot Christmas and holiday product photography?
Yes, absolutely. We shoot Christmas and holiday photos for beauty, wellness, skincare, apparel, footwear, jewelry, gift sets, and lots of other products. You don't need a huge campaign to work with us. A smaller set of styled holiday images for your online store, email, and social works great, and if you'd like to go bigger, we can build a full gifting campaign with creative direction, props, and video.
Our holiday photography page has the current packages, starting prices, and a planner based on when your campaign needs to go live.

Models, Styling & Full Production
What's the difference between product photography and lifestyle product photography?
Product photography is clean, simple photos of the product itself, usually on a plain background, so people can see exactly what it looks like. Lifestyle product photography shows the product in real life, like on a model, in someone's hands, or styled in a scene, so people can picture using it themselves. Most brands want both. Lifestyle photos tend to work best for social media, your homepage, and ads, while the clean product shots keep your product pages sharp and consistent.
Can you do studio and lifestyle photography in the same shoot?
Yes, and it's usually the easiest way to do it. In one shoot, we can capture crisp product shots for your website and store alongside styled lifestyle photos for ads and social. It's all planned together, so you don't need to book two separate shoots.
Do I need a model, or can lifestyle photos be shot without one?
You don't need a model. Lifestyle photos can be styled with props and a scene, with no one in the shot, or they can include a model to show how the product fits, how big it is, or how it's used. Clothing and footwear usually look best on a model, and on-model photos tend to work well in ads and on product pages because people can picture themselves using it. Skincare, supplements, and accessories often look just as great without one.
If you do want models, you can choose your own and we'll work with them, or we can help you find the right fit through the modeling agencies we work with. Either way works, and we can help you figure out what makes sense for your brand and budget.
Can you handle the full production, like models, hair and makeup, and wardrobe styling?
Yes, we can handle all of it. That includes finding and booking models, hair and makeup artists, wardrobe and prop styling, and scouting locations, whether you want a beach in Malibu or a bright, simple studio setup. Everything is included in one upfront quote, so you don't have to hire your own crew or coordinate a bunch of different people. You bring the product and the vision, and we take care of the team. If you're picturing something bigger, like multiple locations or a full campaign story, that's more of a brand campaign, and we'd be glad to talk it through with you.
Do you provide creative direction, or do I need my own shot list?
You don't need a shot list, but you're welcome to bring one. If you're starting from scratch, we'll put together the concept and shot list with you. If you already have a mood board or reference images, we're happy to shoot from those. Either way, we go over everything together before the shoot day, so you know exactly what to expect.

Products, Pricing & Delivery
What kinds of products do you photograph?
We photograph beauty and skincare, jewelry and watches, footwear and apparel, wellness and supplements, and home goods like candles. If your product isn't on that list, no problem. Send us a message and we'll let you know if it's a good fit.
What kinds of backgrounds do you shoot products on?
We shoot on white, black, colored, and textured backgrounds, and we can build custom sets with props, fabric, satin, or stone to add depth. Simple white and neutral backdrops keep all the attention on the product, while colored and styled setups add mood and feel more like your brand. Most shoots mix a few of these, so you end up with a nice variety of looks from one day.
How much does product and lifestyle photography cost?
It depends on the scope, including how many products you have, whether you want models or stylists, and where you plan to use the images. We quote every shoot individually, so you only pay for what you actually need, and you'll know the price before you book anything.
How long does delivery take after the shoot?
Once you've approved your favorites from the proofs, editing usually takes about 5 to 7 business days. We'll confirm your exact timeline before the shoot, so you can plan your launch with confidence.
What do I get after the shoot?
First, you'll get proofs to look through and approve, which you can do remotely. Then we edit your favorites and deliver finished, high-resolution images, color-corrected and sized for your website, ads, and social. They're ready to use right away, so there's nothing left for you to edit.

How This Compares to Our Other Services
What's the difference between product photography and ecommerce photography?
Ecommerce photography is the simpler option. It's clean, product-only images made for online store listings and product pages, without models or lifestyle styling. Product and lifestyle photography covers more, with studio shots plus lifestyle and on-model images for ads, social, and your website. If that's the setup you're after, our ecommerce photography page is the best place to start.
What's the difference between product photography and a full brand campaign?
Product and lifestyle photography stays focused on the product itself. A brand campaign is a bigger creative production, with full concept development, multiple locations, talent, and a story built around your brand, not just one product. If that sounds like what you have in mind, our brand campaign page explains how those projects come together.
