Can I courier my products to a product photography studio?
Yes. You courier the products to our studio in Thane, Maharashtra, and we shoot, retouch and send the files in five to seven working days from the day the box arrives, raw frames included. Then we courier the products back to you. You do not need to be in Mumbai.
Brands in Bangalore, Gurgaon, Noida and across Gujarat send their products to our Thane studio by courier. So do plenty of Mumbai brands in Powai, Dadar and Navi Mumbai who would rather not lose a day to traffic.
How it works. You send the product list and what each listing needs. We reply with a quote and a moodboard. You courier the products to the studio. We shoot white background, lifestyle and infographic frames in one session, retouch the selects, and send the files with the raw frames. The products go back to you by courier. Images come sized for Amazon, Flipkart, Meesho and your own website.
What to pack. Send two units of anything that gets opened, swatched, poured or plated, because a second attempt means a second courier docket. Send the exact retail pack with the current label, since the main image has to match what the buyer receives. Mark anything fragile or high value on the list so we check it on arrival.
What it costs. Catalogue work is priced per image, between Rs 500 and Rs 1,500 depending on how hard the product is to light and style. The per-image rate comes down on larger catalogues. Courier charges both ways are yours, and we can add them to the final bill. There is a full breakdown in our pricing guide.
When courier is the wrong call. Large furniture, anything that cannot travel safely, or a shoot that needs your own space. For those we arrange an on-location shoot, quoted separately.
