Professional Commercial Photography & Executive Headshots

Your visual content is the most important piece of your marketing. It can literally make or break you. It speaks and it keeps on speaking even with the volume turned down. Make the investment wisely and make sure it’s telling the story you want to tell and that it keeps on telling it. Creating images and videos that work for your branding can seem overwhelming, but it can actually be a lot of fun! You don’t have to do it all alone. Let the professionals help you create and concept. They will have a good idea of what is possible and think of things that you wouldn’t on your own. They will also be able to give you an idea of the time and budget needed to get what you want. Choose a team that is creative and can think outside the box, but also one with a proven record for delivering what is expected. They will need to catch your vision. Not all photographers and videographers are the same. Be sure that you are working with the ones who love to shoot the type of images that you need so their heart will be all in.

Files are almost always delivered in jpeg (or png if you need a transparent background). You will need 72 dpi for web use and 300 dpi for printing.

You can come to us, we can go to your office, or we can meet at another location. For portraits, we have a home studio, a commercial studio rental option, or we can bring our portable studio set-up to your office. For branding images, we can come to your work space and capture your team at work, or we can help you recreate your story at a third party’s location. Do you charge travel fees to go beyond your city? We don’t charge a fee within the Austin Metro Area or a 10 mile from our studio location. Beyond that, we charge a $75 hour travel fee.

It’s pretty easy to estimate the cost of portrait services. Most photographers have a price list they can refer to based on what you need. However, branding images can differ greatly depending on the difficulty of the scenario(s). Also, the number of final images needed, where and when they are happening and sometimes the final usage of the image(s). There may also be talent and location fees to consider. Every branding session is different. Be sure to get a quote.

Who doesn’t love a tip? For the most part, I don’t think it is expected (like your nail tech or waitress.)

Yes, we offer a guarantee. If you are not satisfied, and it is possible to do so, we will reshoot. If a reshoot is not possible, we will refund the money we were paid (excluding any third party fees). However, after un-watermarked images are released to the client - there is no refund or reshoot guaranteed.

Crafting a shot list is a powerful asset for orchestrating your photo sessions. Think of it as your visual blueprint, outlining the key images you want to capture to represent your business effectively. By organizing your ideas and prioritizing what matters most, you not only streamline the process but also ensure that every snapshot tells your story authentically, leaving a lasting impact on your audience and clients alike. Austin Pro Photo offers a free initial consultation with every branding job to help clients think through and create a shot list. It is one of our favorite parts of the project and it helps us to really understand our clients’ needs, story and personality.

Some commercial photographers do portrait photography and some portrait photographers do commercial photography. We do both! We like to think of commercial photography as branding or anything that could be used for marketing. That is our sweet spot. We like to help companies tell their stories to their specific audiences. Portrait photography is part of branding when it tells the story of the people involved in the business or even on LinkedIn. It may be a studio headshot or a portrait of a person doing their job or just in an office environment.

For portraits, we have a home studio, a commercial studio rental option. For branding images, we can help you recreate your story at a third party’s location.
