Industrial & Manufacturing Photography in Boston & MetroWest

Industrial & Manufacturing Photography FAQs

1. How do you handle site safety and OSHA requirements for on-site shoots?

We prioritize on-site safety compliance and always adhere to your facility’s protocols, including necessary PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and training. We carry comprehensive liability insurance and are prepared to follow strict OSHA guidelines to ensure a safe, smooth, and responsible documentation process.

2. Do you have experience photographing clean rooms, ESD environments, or R&D labs?

Yes. We regularly photograph highly sensitive environments, including Biotech clean rooms, semiconductor facilities, and specialized R&D laboratories. We understand the stringent entry and procedural requirements for maintaining ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) compliance and particle control.

3. Can you photograph large manufacturing machinery or full assembly lines?

Absolutely. We bring specialized lighting equipment necessary to handle the scale and shadow challenges of large factory floors. Our focus is on documenting heavy equipment, assembly lines, and large-scale infrastructure to showcase the full scope and precision of your manufacturing process.

4. Do you also photograph small industrial products, component samples, or specialized parts?

Yes. In addition to facility shoots, we maintain a dedicated studio setup for capturing high-resolution images of small industrial products, specialized components, and samples. This ensures superior lighting, clarity, and detail perfect for e-commerce, technical documentation, or marketing catalogs.

5. What is included in the final delivery for technical documentation?

Final delivery includes high-resolution images optimized for print collateral (case studies, annual reports) and web-optimized files (JPEG, PNG) for digital use. All images receive professional retouching, color grading, and organization by technical component or workflow stage for seamless integration into your document management system.

6. What are the standard usage rights for corporate industrial images?

Our standard agreement grants you a broad, perpetual, non-exclusive license to use the final images for internal communications, marketing, advertising, web, and corporate reports. Specific requirements for third-party use or limited licensing can be addressed in the project proposal.

7. Are there travel fees for facilities outside of the Boston MetroWest area?

Our pricing includes standard travel throughout the immediate Boston and MetroWest areas. Projects requiring travel beyond this area will include a clearly itemized fee based on mileage and time, ensuring complete transparency in the project estimate.

8. How much does specialized industrial photography cost?

Pricing is based on the scope of work, required site time, and complexity (e.g., lighting machinery vs. sterile lab work). Due to safety and logistical requirements, industrial projects are typically quoted based on a day rate or half-day rate for on-site shoots. Please contact us for a custom estimate tailored to your facility’s needs.
