Lifestyle Photography & Styling

Creative agency and Production house for Lifestyle and In-Situ Productions

Lifestyle photography breathes the flavors of your brand and makes your audience engage with the products on set. From concept to realization, we help to create this beautiful landscape. We work on the big idea, creative concepts and strategy concepts.

The strategy is a translation of the brand-ID into branded product content or a content campaign. The brand-ID is the expression of a brand! We can translate the brand-ID into a atmospheric image, a lifestyle image and an in-situ image. A Lifestyle image is about a world in which the brand and the target group are located. Through lifestyle photography we can create a realistic view on the product. We are good at devising and visualizing a world both still (film photography) and moving image (film & mixed media). This can be done with or without models. We create concepts, strategy and do full-service image productions for campaigns and ‘’always on-content’’.

STUDIO ZAANDAM

Our main studio is located in Zaandam, it is a beautiful 770 square building with offices, work spaces and a big studio just outside of Amsterdam. In the studio we can create a wide variety of set-ups for bigger and smaller productions. The space is perfect for lifestyle photography as it allows us to build any set you want and create the style you need.

STUDIO AMSTERDAM

Our second studio is located in Amsterdam. This studio is 250 square meter and also includes a meeting room. It is perfect for smaller set-ups that fit the warm atmosphere of the studio. If the atmosphere of the studio is your taste and fits your brand, this studio is perfect for lifestyle photography.

Lean & mean shoots

As a full-service production-house we are experienced in productions where we utilize all types of media to tell the story and visualize the concepts. You can rely on us as your one-stop shop, for both smaller and bigger productions. We can do small lean & mean shoots where we do the creative execution based on a good briefing. We mainly work with everything that is available in our studio. For example, if the strategy involves image concept and food design, it becomes more tailor-made.

Creative agency & strategic agency

As a creative agency we work directly with brands and also work as an extension to other agencies. We work on the big idea, creative concepts and strategy projects. In many cases these projects are combined with the production of the campaign and content. For example, we work on various content productions to visualize the USP’s of products. Prior to the content production, the mission is to translate the brand ID into branded product content and a content campaign. We will show the strong points of the product itself and the values of the brand-ID. Because we have our in-house studio, the lines are very short between creative and production, leading to efficient teamwork and processes and realistic quotes.

set construction and set design

Our creatives, producers and stylists develop and create moods for campaigns and editorial images. We design special settings and environments that fit your brand and share the passion for extraordinary and strong pictures. In addition to our two studios, we have our own working space where our creatives create the perfect ambiance.

Setdressing, styling and props

Many of our productions take care of the concept, including set design, shoots and prop sourcing. For the shoots we make the props ourselves at our own working space. We have our own props in stock and our stylists know exactly where to go for that one special item. When we have a shoot, we start by creating a mood board and a script so we can create the right set-up and don’t overlook anything. Another approach is also possible where we look much more on the spot what arises based on the brand-ID and the available stuff in the studio.

YAYA

For Yaya Home Collection we did the full-service atmosphere and campaign production on location. Yaya mainly uses warm colors in its products. We have translated this into atmospheric images through the use of natural light, soft colors and the right styling. This allowed us to properly translate Yaya's brand identity. The images felt warm and personal, exactly what Yaya stands for.
