You can divide e-commerce catalog photography into 2 broad categories:
Products
Apparel
Product photography dose not require models nor does ti require any kind of retouching and finishing. Thus the cost is time based. Generally the price of shooting products exclusive for e-commerce starts between Rs. 185/ to Rs.650/- per product. For apparel one needs additional labor from unpacking, steamin
g the garments, removing tags and sorting before the shoot. Once the product has been shot it needs to be retagged and packed again. You also need models, makeup artist, hair dresser and, a stylist. This adds up the cost reasonably. Moreover for catalog shoot the model has to change at least 60 to 80 times pose non stop for for a good 8-10 hours. This tedious process reduces the number of garments that can be shot in one shift when compared to a product shoot. The apparel shoot for e-commerce costs anywhere between Rs. 275/- to Rs.425/- per product. The minimum quantity we need for the catalog shoot is 50+ products. We do not accept assignments of less than 50 products. Our slab pricing helps bring down your costs if you plan a bulk shoot with us.
