Photography, Film & Motion Agency
As a photography, film, and motion agency, we plan, shoot, animate, and edit photos and video for websites, ecommerce, social media, advertising, and events.
Photo and video content for every channel.
Challenges
You’re here because your brand needs photos and video that perform, right?
Do you need more content than your current resources can produce?
Websites, product listings, social channels, ads, and email all need a steady supply of photos and video. We plan productions to deliver the volume you need, from a single video to a full library of photos, product videos, and social content.
Is your product or service hard to explain?
Some products and ideas are difficult to show with photos alone. Product videos, how-to videos, and motion graphics explain features, processes, and data quickly and keep viewers engaged.
Is managing multiple vendors slowing you down?
Separate photographers, videographers, editors, and animators mean more coordination and less consistency. We handle concept, production, and post-production for each project, so you work with a single crew from start to finish.

Photography, film & motion questions, answered.
How much does a photo or video production cost?
Pricing depends on scope: crew size, locations, number of deliverables, and whether animation or motion graphics are involved. A single product photo shoot might start around $1,500, while a full video campaign with multiple deliverables runs higher. We'll put together a quote based on what the project needs.
Do we own the final photos and videos?
Yes. Once the project is paid in full, you own the final deliverables and can use them across your channels indefinitely.
How long does a typical production take?
A straightforward photo or video shoot can go from kickoff to delivery in two to four weeks. Larger productions with animation, multiple locations, or extensive post-production can take six to eight weeks or longer.
Do you provide models, talent, or props?
Yes, when needed. We can source talent, locations, props, and wardrobe, or work with the people and products you provide.
Can you shoot content sized for social media and vertical video?
Yes. Every production is planned with the final formats in mind, including vertical video for Reels and TikTok, square crops for feeds, and horizontal video for websites and ads.
Do you travel for shoots outside Southern Illinois?
Yes. We travel for productions nationwide, with crew, equipment, and logistics planned around the shoot location.
How many revisions are included?
A revision round is included in every production, covering color, pacing, and minor edits. Larger creative changes outside the original concept are scoped separately.
What's the difference between photography and video for our project?
Photography works well for product pages, listings, and static ads. Video performs better for storytelling, demonstrating a product in use, and social content where motion holds attention. Many projects use both.
Do you handle motion graphics and animation if we don't have footage?
Yes. Motion graphics and animation can explain a product, process, or data set without any footage at all, created entirely from illustration and design.
What files do we receive, and in what formats?
Finished photos and videos get delivered in the sizes and formats each platform requires, web, print, and social included, organized so your team can find and use them without digging through raw folders.
