How to Hire Industrial Photographer?

March 1, 2011 - PRLog -- Steer clear of the drive-thru!

Do you know what you really should expect from a photographer?

Here's a quick checklist:

1. Experience. Logical enough, right? Your photographer should be a professional with experience in their craft. More to the point is number two:

2. Area of Expertise. All photographers are not the same. You wouldn't hire an electrical engineer to build a bridge. Don't hire a portrait photographer for your industrial  shots.

3. Strategic input. A knowledgeable photographer will add value to your strategy planning session and bring up ideas you may not have considered. When there is true creative collaboration between photographer and art director, art happens, even in the commercial realm.

4. Flexibility. Do you need to shoot at night? Does the shoot involve multiple-locations , or a secured facility? Your photographer should be willing and happy to accommodate your needs.

5. Accessibility. Can you meet with the photographer beforehand to get a feel for their approach, style and personality? Can you call and ask questions?

6. Imagination. The best way to find out if your photographer is an imaginative sort is view his portfolio and ask questions about how he approached a specific shot. Why was the model posed in a certain fashion? How was the lighting effect determined? You may already know exactly what you want your finished photos to look like, but if you would like another opinion, be sure you're hiring a photographer who has ideas and can think conceptually.
7. Willingness to take direction.  Make sure your photographer is comfortable taking instruction, and let him or her know beforehand whose input they need to heed most.
