The commercial photography rates in Australia depend on the location, Studio, Service availability, length of working hours, and the scope of production with it’s associated amount of gear to be used.

See the linked heading above for a full description on how commercial photography fees and pricing works for Advertising Photography.

Some full team commercial shoots for a premium international brand through an Agency can be $100,000 plus and have a team of dozens of people. On the other hand, our shoots either on location or in a studio are much, much cheaper than that. Hiring us is affordable for most small and medium size businesses.

Products and Services, Food, Editorial and Lifestyle photography for national and local businesses are modest investment in comparison to large Agencies.

What does the photography fee typically include?

• Most commercial photoshoots need a lot of preliminary time. That’s called pre production.
• Then there’s the actual production time and equipment. That’s the shoot day or days.
• Lastly there is the post production, that’s where photo selection, processing and or retouching happens.

A full day shoot will need about a day of prelims at a minimum, and one full day of post production. That’s 3 days work for a modest shot list.
