A huge, stable studio
Because we've been in the same building since 1983, our studio is much more than some big empty rooms. Its ample size gives us the freedom to stage large and complex projects, or several projects at once. Such as the 104-page catalog for Wheeler Manufacturing, or the 50-shower-head project we were able to begin for WaterPik while wrapping up their Pedicure Footspa package.
It's a carefully crafted environment built for solving all the visual problems our clients bring to us. Constant modification over time has made our studio more comfortable, versatile and efficient - for everyone; it's stocked with what's necessary to meet any challenge.
Specialization
Newer studios won't have such breadth of seasoned space or depth of equipment. With a variety of digital and extensive film systems, we usually have our choice of two or three tools for every job. Sometimes a fifteen-year-old 67mm Spiratone offset streak filter is what it takes to give your product that last little bit of visual excitement. And we know just where to find it when we need to.
Organization - filing in its finest form
25 years of photo stuff isn't much good if we can't find the item we need. And if it takes a while, the set gets stale, progress slows, the picture suffers. This is where Jim's other passion comes into play: A racecar aficionado and serious motorhead, organizing large numbers of small parts is second nature for him. In fact, he can locate every image he's ever produced for hire in less than 20 minutes. A visit to his studio or garage is evidence of the neat freak in him…who better to lead your project with many options and multiple details?
Customer-centric upgrades, unlimited capabilities
It took us months of phone calls and telecom babysitting to get our DSL phone line installed. But it was worth it. A faster Internet connection was critical in allowing us to take a big next step in service: instant transfer of images to printers and clients for quick, convenient revisions and approvals. We've built extensive image archives for clients and continue to find new ways to use them for added value. Overall, even we are surprised at how the DSL has improved our service.
Our image approval site has transformed the way we produce large and small projects, saving our clients time and money by shortening approval cycles and reducing printer proofs. It means our clients can be more productive because they spend less time in our studio and at the printer. They're watching their projects progress from their office or home, and selling them to other decision makers as they develop. Our fat pipes and approval site let you communicate with us - from wherever you are, any time you want.
