We recommend our clients invest in a set of photos that have a consistent look and feel to them, further unifying your visual brand. These photos can then be used both in print and on the web. You can choose to have a custom photoshoot onsite at your practice when you need the very best. You can choose a photodisc from one of many stock photography houses when you want great photos but don't have the time for a photoshoot. You can buy photos a la carte from the likes of iStockPhoto.com, when you need to watch the budget closely.

process

When commissioning a custom photoshoot, you can hire us for a half- or full-day rate, plus travel from Pittsburgh, PA. The half-day rate gives you a photographer and an assistant for three hours at your location, while the full-day gives you six hours. In the first three hours, we'll take photos of you, your staff and your location. The full-day rate gets you an additional three hours, which we'll spend documenting a typical patient's experience of your practice, and getting a lot of stock images of you and your staff in your environment and using your equipment. After the shoot, we'll select the best photos, color balance and correct any blemishes, and send you a copy of the disc for your purposes. We'll also file the whole set of photos for use in future projects for you.

When purchasing photodiscs, we'll use information from you to research sets of photos that reflect your practice's personality and target demographic. We get these photodiscs on your behalf from the likes of Veer and Corbis. Once a selection has been made, we'll send a copy to you, and keep a copy for use on your projects.

If you don't want to invest in a re-usable set of photography just yet, that's no problem. We can purchase images a la carte from stock houses like iStockPhoto.com for your deliverable.

Oh, and if we're not in your neck of the woods, you can hire a photographer in your area. We can work with them to get the shots we'll need for your deliverables
