Absolutely! Before we proceed with the photoshoot session, we’ll provide you with samples that we recommend depending on your items’ shape. If you already know what you want, you can send us some photo samples to understand your requirements. We won’t proceed with shooting all the items until you are happy with a test sample first.
Absolutely not! We have many international clients who often send us their jewelry for photoshoots. To feel more secure sending your products, we can sign agreements and non-disclosure agreements that’ll give you peace of mind.
We want you satisfied, so please inform us how you want us to photograph your product. Use the project shoot list to describe how you want your product shot. The order form helps provide clear direction for your photo requests, and you can also share drawings, images, or style guides to specify your needs. If we meet your instructions but you later request changes, a full charge applies. However, if we don’t follow your instructions and you’re dissatisfied, we will reshoot the photos at no extra cost or offer a refund. Please see our Terms and Conditions for more info.
Although we can shoot any product, for the time being, we only accept jewelry, gemstones, and accessories that go with jewelry, such as boxes. Please get in touch with us for any other products so we can understand what you need to shoot, and we might accept your project.
Our prices include photos of one product shot at 2 angles of your choice. If you require additional shots, we will charge you an additional fee. Please refer to our price list for the additional fees for extra angles.
We do not share your information with anyone. We want to display any of y our photos on our site for marketing purposes. We will ask you before to get your permission. Furthermore, we never disclose any information about your company or products without your consent. If you would like us to sign an NDA, we can do that too. See our Terms and Conditions for our complete privacy policy.
We deliver all photos on white background with your choice of natural reflection or drop shadow. However, you can always request a different background if your product requires it. We are always available to discuss a different background color, different surface, or custom background. Just let us know we can provide you with a custom quote if we deem that necessary. Note that the photos we deliver to you have layered TIFF images. Therefore, you can always change the background yourself (or have a designer do it).
Currently, we only shoot products that you can use on the internet, product print for brochures or catalogs, and banners. We do not photograph items on backdrops or models for the use of magazine advertising.
For local customers (Thailand)
Local customers can pay either by business cheque, cash, or bank transfer.
For International customers:
Before starting your project, we will send you a quote with a payment link or bank account details which you can use to accept the quote and pay. We accept PayPal or bank transfers for international clients.
If you are present in Thailand, you can send your products by any courier of your preference. If you’re located overseas, we recommend using the CARNET ATA system to ship goods, so any import duties are waived. The goods will then enter temporarily for photography and shipped back once done. You can ship by any other carrier of your preference, such as DHL, FedEx, Brinks, Malca Amit, Ferrari, etc. However, using such carriers will result in import duties charges that you will be responsible for paying.
Depending on the current queue, for 1-25 items, our turnaround time is 7 business days. The period starts from the day you approve our sample shot(s) for one or more items from your batch. For over 25 items, please get in touch with us for a delivery timeframe that depends on the work in progress. If your product needs special attention, we are happy to accommodate rush orders that come at extra fees. After your payment is received, all photos are uploaded online for you to download at your convenience.
We photograph all products in high resolution and then deliver the photos in layered TIFF format with various resolutions. Please refer to our pricing table for details on the pricing of various resolutions. If you require a different size/resolution, let us know ahead of time to deliver the required product photography.
We normally use dropbox to deliver all your photos. If you don’t want to use dropbox, we can manage to deliver it to you by other means using the internet. Kindly let us know if you have a preferred method, and we will see how to use that dispatch method.
You have unlimited usage rights to the final images, and we will never charge you any royalties. You may not sell or re-license the images to a third party without our consent. This includes a stock for profit which would be a violation of the copyright agreement. Don’t hesitate to visit our Terms and Conditions page for more information.
