StudioDrop vs. eCommerce Fashion Shoot

So you’ve made the choice to turn your dreams into reality and create a brand new startup fashion brand. 

Congrats!

Or, maybe, you’re running an eCommerce fashion brand and looking for new fashion photo-video content, or to increase your fashion brands sales.  

While you may have done your research into e-Commerce photoshoots, it can still be tricky to actually know what it takes to create successful, high-converting fashion brand images and content.

In the age of digitalization, having a strong, attractive eCommerce website and solid social media presence for your fashion brand is EVERYTHING, and the competition is fierce.   

But then…your brand’s marketing budget comes into play. 

It’s a known fact that models and photo agencies charge high hourly rates. 

Photoshoot studios rarely go by the hour and charge daily rates even if you shoot only for an hour.

Photographers cost more than what you can afford…

Low-quality iPhone shots just don’t do it because the lighting and setup is what makes your product look awesome… (or not so awesome). It all starts feeling overwhelming, and expensive.      

That’s exactly where we come in. Think of us as your photo production saving grace.

StudioDrop will complete your entire fashion product photo and video shoot from start to finish, down to the smallest of details at the most affordable prices available and return the highest quality and consistent eCommerce catalog images or videos that are sure to take your brand to the next level. 

How Does the StudioDrop Concept Work?

StudioDrop delivers eCommerce image and video media to use on your own website, drop shipper, B2B, retailer, or social media platforms.

Our entry-level buy-shoot packages start with a minimum booking of only 5 products at a flat fee price per product. Fully packaged, all-inclusive, and easy to order. 

We run the complete photoshoot booking from start to finish. All the garment preparation, styling, accessories, hair and makeup, Digi service, colour correcting, retouching, file naming, and image formatting.

Priding ourselves with a fast turn-around time, your high-quality, high-converting ecommerce images and videos will be returned to you in just 3 days after we shoot it! 

And the best part? 

It can be done from ANYWHERE in the world meaning that all you have to do is sit tight and wait for your images to come to life!

 

 

All you need to do is select your model, the package you would like, and how many product samples you have that need shooting.
