Being a specialized photographer is the
best option, an upcoming photographer
usually think. But graduating with time and getting exposed to real market.
Soon they realize that with growing trend of online market places, editorial or
hi end photography and editing has taken a back step. Quick photography and
image editing is the burning demand of latest market places.
Here are few reasons why editorial
photography and retouching is less in demand over E-commerce photography and
retouching.
1 -Low cost but quantitative approach.
Even if few brands look for hi quality
images for blowouts and editorials, the specialized commercial photographers
are approached for the high skilled job. But the requirement of such a service
vendor is comparatively less than the E-commerce photography or E-commerce
Image Editing Service required by the
same company.
Despite of low price range of E-commerce,
the inflow of work is huge, So few clients and little marketing of your
business will fetch good bulk of work.
On the other hand, the pricing of
specialized high end photography is comparatively less and needs more marketing
to fetch new clients.
2- Regularity of work
Where On one hand advertising images needed
6-7 times an year to promote new collection or new season by a company,
E-commerce photography is needed way more than that. One product multiple
angles, occupy you on regular basis and let you bear your monthly expenses more
easily.
3- Needs Less Editing
For E-commerce photography you get paid
less but you pay less for editing of those images also. As compared to high end
image retouching, E-commerce image retouching , is less priced job and involves
less rework and attention once the quality is set with a photo editing company.
4- Quick turn around
Once you create an organized system of
shooting , labeling, image processing for various product range, you finish off
the job quickly. In a pre-created product photography setting and quality set
with an image retouching company, you click fast, process the images, get them
retouched and send back to client and get ready again for new jobs.
5- Involves less priced setup and shooting
equipment's.
Unlike
Advertising or editorial photographers,
You can start E-commerce photography with
basic equipment's, camera and lighting setup. Initially you can also edit the images on
your own if you have basic editing skills.
Its a better way to start you
photography or editing career
if you have limited money to
invest and you want to start up the earning at earliest.
