Two photographers, one studio

We work as a two-photographer team out of our own Bagley Mansion studio at 2921 E Jefferson—an 1869 brick mansion with daylight, controlled-light backdrops, and locations on the property that won't look like every other Detroit corporate website. Or we come to your office, factory, or jobsite.

Common questions

Do you work with PR agencies and marketing departments?
Yes. We routinely deliver to communications teams, marketing departments, and outside PR agencies. Files arrive in a single shared gallery with download-all, organized by subject, ready for press kits, the website, and the next campaign. We invoice net 30 against a PO.
Are commercial usage rights included?
Yes. Every image is delivered with full commercial usage rights—website, social, print advertising, packaging, billboards, internal communications. No licensing fees, no expiration, no per-use add-ons. The one thing we ask is that the image not be resold as stock.
Can you photograph our whole executive team in one day?
Yes. A team day in our Bagley Mansion studio runs about five minutes per person on the Basic package and produces consistent, on-brand portraits the whole team can use the same week. For a larger campaign—executive portraits plus environmental shots plus a team group photo—we schedule a half day or full day with two photographers working in parallel.
Do you shoot at our office, our factory, or only in studio?
Both. The studio at 2921 E Jefferson is an 1869 brick mansion with daylight, controlled-light setups, and roof and exterior locations that don't look like every other Detroit corporate site. For on-location work we cover the metro—Renaissance Center, the Fisher Building, the Guardian Building, the Detroit Institute of Arts, manufacturing floors, restaurants, construction sites. On location it is $349 for the first image and $179 for each additional, anywhere in the city, with no travel fee.
How fast can we get the images?
Same day for in-studio sessions—we edit on a calibrated monitor while you wait, and you leave with the files. On-location campaigns deliver within 48 hours, organized into a gallery your team can share internally. Rush turnaround on request.
Do you sign NDAs and work product confidentiality agreements?
Yes. We've signed NDAs for product launches, executive transitions, and pre-announcement campaign work. Send your standard form before the shoot and we'll have it back the same day.
