What beauty listings need

Glass, foil and gloss without the reflections.

Beauty packaging is the hardest thing on a product table: glass jars, foil labels, chrome caps and glossy tubes reflect everything. Each piece is lit so the shape reads and the label stays clean.

Texture and swatch frames show the cream, serum, balm or pigment itself, which is what shoppers zoom in on before they buy.

Lifestyle frames are shot in natural San Diego light or on set, so one session covers the PDP, Amazon and Sephora-style galleries, and social.

Questions

How do you handle glass and reflective packaging?
With controlled lighting and flags so reflections read as shape, not as the room. Chrome, foil and glass are standard on the product table.
Do you shoot swatches and textures?
Yes. Creams, serums, balms and pigments are photographed out of the package, on surface or on skin, in macro detail.
Can we ship products instead of visiting?
Yes. The mail-in option works from anywhere in the US. Send a SKU list for a flat quote and a ship-to address.
Are files ready for Amazon and Shopify?
Yes. White background images are delivered to marketplace specs alongside PDP and social sizes.
Do you retouch packaging?
Dust, fingerprints and small print flaws are cleaned up. Product color is matched to the physical item, not shifted.
Can you shoot on a model?
Yes, in San Diego on a booked session. Hands, face and application shots are quoted flat with the shoot.
