Factors That Impact Product Photography Pricing

by Geetika Bhasin / Friday, 10 November 2017 / Published in Product Photography Tips, Uncategorized

Product photography pricing has always been a hitch for ecommerce business. Since it is a necessity, one cannot escape this expense. It always perplex the customers that how the pricing is done by a photographer for the shoots. We would like to clear the dust from the rising assumptions and make the price stimulating factors transparent to you.

5 factors that influence the costing of the product photography-

Project Location– Recently in an article I read that ecommerce owners find it really difficult to locate good places for photography shoots. Products are sent in bulk to the photographers so that they can be more productive with the work. The location could be a warehouse or a distribution center, either ways, the rent in the cost causing factor here. If you select a photographer who owns his photo studio then also, the cost will be more than usual. There is always a difference between the costs in case of either scenario but cost will be there.

Products Per Category– Some photographers are available to work on per product basis and some work on category basis. It all depends on the economies of scale. It depends on the photographer on how he will be taking work. There are some categories that contain very less products and some categories have influx of products. Cost also depends on how much time each session is taking. The gears and equipments needed for each kind of product category varies. All these factors influence the cost of product photography.

Images per product– It consumes a lot of time when the product is set ready for photography since you have to take it out of the packages, assemble them (if needed), clean it and set them for the shoot. Now as you understand that ecommerce websites have changed their rules and now multiple images are needed for each product. Had it been like old times when one picture was sufficient for display, the work would have been so easy. Once when the product is set ready, it will take not much time to click various pictures from different angles. But certainly, as the number of images will increase, the cost will also increase.

Type of Products– The type of products hugely affects the pricing factor. If you require tabletop photography then it will cost you relatively less than bigger products. The editing for smaller products is also less and thus they cost less. The products that come in pieces and require complex photography will obviously cost more than other products.

Image Usage– Images are got clicked for various purposes such as marketing, catalogue, ecommerce sites, etc and for every different medium, different kinds of images are required. The ultimate usage of the images will influence on how the images have been captured and the kinds of edits that are made. For specialized imagery, you will have to pay more than the conventional product photography.

Product & Image Factors Impacting Product Photography

Other than the 5 key valuing components recorded above there are a few item and picture related factors that can affect the item photography estimating you get from your specialist organization.

Item estimate: Smaller items are simpler and speedier to photo than bigger items. Bigger items frequently require particular photography and studio hardware. Hope to pay more per picture for bigger items.

Various pieces in the item: If your item comprises of a few pieces the photographer and/or helper should lay out the pieces before photography, this requires some investment and will expand the cost per picture.

Set required: Some items require a set before the item can be captured. A couple of basic cases of item classifications that can require sets incorporate nourishment and family unit items. These sets can extend from easy to expand. Sets set aside the opportunity to plan and build and subsequently can significantly affect item photography estimating.

Item get together: Building and collecting items requires extra photography studio assets and will, along these lines, cost more per picture.

Test pictures: For item photography ventures with numerous items per classification, before creation photography starts, it is a smart thought to take test pictures of a couple of items from every class. This enables you to audit the pictures for the right points and quality gauges and to give criticism to the photographer. There would be a charge for the example picture prepare.

Forte pictures: Certain pictures require particular photography which would be liable to extra charges. A case of this would be quit for the day of specific territories of the item which require the photographer to change camera focal point and studio and lighting setups.

Additional altering: Most standard picture altering incorporates cutting out the foundation, changing levels, and editing. On the off chance that you require extra picture altering well beyond the standard there would be a picture altering additional charge connected to each picture. The cost of extra altering will rely on upon your particular necessities.

Some More Factors That Cause Additional Expenses

The cost per picture that your specialist organization charges to photo and alter your item pictures are just piece of your aggregate cost.

The following are 5 assignments that you and/or your group should perform on the photography extend. These errands include your assets and subsequently cost cash. Consider each undertaking and decide whether it is applicable to your venture or not. On the off chance that it is, evaluate the assets required, how much time they will spend on each assignment and the aggregate cost to your business.

  1. Venture arranging: There are many undertakings required in arranging your venture including:
  • Research and source item photography specialist co-ops
  • Get ready arrangements of items that need pictures
  • Archive item class prerequisites – sees/points, uncommon photography, extra altering
  • Choose where to photo the items – at your place or the specialist co-ops
  1. Transporting or conveying items: In this undertaking, you submit item leans to the stock or distribution center staff, they find the items and prepared them for transportation or conveyance. In the event that the item photography is occurring at the specialist co-op’s studio then you should transport the items to the studio area. On the off chance that the photography is occurring at your business then you should convey the items to the photography studio zone in your DC, store, office or another business office.
  2. Picture QA: Once your item pictures have been altered they should be evaluated for quality. Pictures that fulfil your picture quality will be designed and sent to you by the specialist co-op; pictures that are not tasteful will be re-altered or re-shot. It is suggested that you appoint an asset with item learning to this undertaking.
  3. Venture Management: Although the greater part of the venture administration will be dealt with by the specialist co-op you should dole out a venture chief on your end to deal with the accompanying assignments:
  • The venture arranging (as laid out in point 1)
  • Dealing with the item requesting and sending or conveyance prepare
  • Every day correspondence with the specialist co-op’s venture director
  • Assessing pictures for quality
  • Managing issues that surfaced with the photography studio (if the venture is occurring at your business)
  1. Photography right hand: If the photography is occurring at your business the cost of the photographer assistant is normally your duty. When in doubt, you will require one assistant for every photographer on the venture. Despite the fact that the occupation of the aide is critical it is not profoundly talented – procuring and preparing a brief representative is normal. The partner’s employment is to set up the items for the photographer; removing the item from the bundle, amassing it if required, cleaning it if required, and every other assignment with the end goal that the photographer is given a photography-prepared item when they require it.
