Product photography and listing optimization

Shoot the product once, at the factory, before it ships. Get a complete image set and listing content that works across Amazon, Shopify and TikTok Shop.

The problem

Shoot it once, sell it on every channel

Most brands shoot their product after it lands in the US, which means paying to ship samples, waiting weeks and rebooking a studio every time the product changes. Shooting at source removes all three problems.

What is included

  • Studio product photography on white for marketplace compliance
  • Lifestyle and in use photography with props and models
  • Detail, scale and packaging shots
  • Short form video for TikTok Shop and paid social
  • 360 degree spins where the category benefits
  • Amazon compliant main image, plus secondary and infographic images
  • Listing titles, bullets and descriptions built around search terms
  • A plus content and brand story layouts
  • Image sets resized per channel, including 1:1 for TikTok Shop

How it works

STEP 01 · 2 days

Brief

We agree the shot list, the angles, the props and the channels the images have to serve.

STEP 02 · 1 to 3 days

Shoot

Photography at our facility or at the factory, on production units rather than a prototype.

STEP 03 · 3 to 5 days

Edit

Retouching, background work, infographic overlays and per channel resizing.

STEP 04 · 3 to 5 days

Build

Listing copy written against real search terms, then assembled per channel and handed over ready to publish.

What you receive

  • Full edited image set in every channel size
  • Short form video files
  • Listing copy document per channel
  • Raw files on request

How we charge

Photography is a fixed fee per SKU based on the shot list, with a lower per SKU rate as the batch grows. Listing builds are priced per listing. Both are quoted before the shoot.

In practice

Shooting at source is the reason clients launching multiple SKUs at once get a consistent image set across a whole catalogue instead of a patchwork shot over six months in three different studios.

Questions

Product Photography and Listing Optimization, answered

Do you shoot before the goods ship?
Yes, and that is the point. We shoot on production units at the factory or at our facility, so the images are ready the day the stock lands.
Are the images Amazon compliant?
Yes. Main images on pure white with the product filling the frame, and secondary images built to the current image requirements.
Can you make TikTok Shop images?
Yes. TikTok Shop needs 1:1 square images with text kept clear of the edges, which is a different crop from Amazon, so we deliver both rather than making you crop portrait images down.
Do you write the listing copy too?
Yes, built around actual search terms for your category rather than adjectives. We deliver it as a document you can paste in, or we can load it for you.
