Property Photography Marketing

May 10, 2016/in Photography, Visual Marketing/by admin

Today, the importance of visual marketing, by means of integration with professional property photography are paramount to making the sales you want, when you want as well as showing your clients that you are serious about your professional brand.

Some estate agents still manage to sell their houses with cellphone cameras and underexposed photos. But what damage is being done to their brand? Remember, the estate agent’s “shopfront” (the first interaction a brand has with a client) is the print add or website that will list the property to potential buyers. Thus what harm are you doing to your brand, when you have unprofessional photos hitting your client square in the face?

Professional photographs are step one in marketing a property for sale or for rent. And bad photos will equate to a bad start. And remember, the more bad it looks with regards to the condition/look/feel of the property – the more you need a professional approach to capture the property in the best way possible.

Deep Sea Trawling stock photos

January 12, 2016/in Images, Photography, Visual Marketing/by admin

As an adventurous man, I could not turn down the opportunity when asked to go out on a deep sea trawler and capturing stock photos of the life of the fishermen and their work environment. One really gets a lot of respect for them when you witness first-hand how it is to live and work on the deep sea trawlers. Although commercial deep sea fishing has come a long way with regards to the technology used on the vessels, it still is an arduous job that comes with its set of dangers around every corner. Deep sea trawling is not for the faint hearted! Thanks to the captain and the crew for their hospitality and for their willingness to be documented.

Stock photos like these are ideal for a company to have in their arsenal of marketing material. The reasons are that the company can use these photos on their website, brochures, banner and even in the foyer to show clients and customers what they do and how they do it.

Time flies – especially high school! This was once again the case with this group of matrics that had their Durbanville matric photos and got together for a few photos beforehand. I was asked to capture the photos for Louw and Carla who really seemed excited for the event. I’m sure they’ll agree that these photos are worth keeping and looking at for years to come.

Herewith some of our other People Photos.

Construction Stock photography

This construction company asked me to take some stock photography photos of their operations and tools so that it can be used in future marketing and branding related projects.

The photographs were used in a promotional booklet, e-flyer, and their website – truly a very useful tool to be used in promotional material.

Do you perhaps have a construction company? Renovating services? Building contractor? You want to show your clients what you do or have done in the past. But alas, you only have your old cellphone photos of the operations. Sorry, not good enough. Have a look at these photos that we can offer your company. These photos can be used on websites, corporate folders, flyers, signage boards etc.

If you offer professional services – why not showcase it professionally?

Pop-up – Christmas in July

July 30, 2015/in Events, News, Photography, Visual Marketing/by admin

Christmas arrived early this year in the form of a Pop-up dinner evening – and what a beautiful evening it was. The evening was filled with superb wines, excellent food, good laughs and ambiance. The reason for this winter gathering was another exclusive pop-up event by The Pot and Spoon in coordination with Braai Country.

The Pop-up evening was hosted by winemaker Dirk Roos on the rustic Mooiplaas wine estate. The guests were welcomed by some mulled wine in the tasting room and led to the long table in the historical manor house where Chef Jaco’s six course dinner was served and paired with the farm’s excellent Mooiplaas wines.

It was an evening for the books and one that all the guests will surely remember. I had the privilege to attend and capture this memorable event and even sneak taste some of the food from the kitchen. What a bargain. Be sure to look out for the next Pop-up event by following Chef Jaco from the Pot and Spoon and Braai Country on Facebook.

Showcasing your work

July 27, 2015/in Photography, Visual Marketing/by admin

I was asked to capture some professional photos for Pitch45 on one of their projects in Stellenbosch. As you can see, Pitch45 did an amazing job on the carpentry in and around this beautiful house and the photos prove this. The photographs also serves as a portfolio of work for Pitch45 to attract more potential clients. Do you have any products or services that needs to be shown to your clients? Pop us a mail!

Crest Lecture

July 6, 2015/in Events, Photography, Visual Marketing/by admin

When you have top specialists in their respective fields facilitating a Crest lecture in South Africa – it needs to be captured. With camera at the ready and trying to be a fly on the wall and not interfere with the lecture in progress, I captured the essence of these events for my client.

Photos such as these are great for all the participants to see, but the client will also use them as stock imagery for future promotional material in flyers, brochures or websites. Instead of using generic stock photos, these photos will be relevant and personal in the client’s future visual communication. Keep this in mind when you next host or organize a function, lecture or corporate event – that professional quality photos can be used for a lot more than just Facebook tags of the attendees.
