E-commerce photography prices
If you want a simple answer: this page explains my E-commerce photography prices and how I package work so you get clean, consistent images that are ready to upload—without the usual confusion around “price per photo”.
This is for catalogue/packshot work aimed at selling online: white or uniform backgrounds, colour accuracy, consistency across SKUs, and predictable delivery. If you want campaign still life, heavy compositing or special effects, that’s a different service.
Who this is for and who it isn’t
This fits if you…
- Run an online store and need consistent product photos that look professional across the whole range.
- Sell on Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce or other marketplaces and need clarity and uniformity.
- Care about colour fidelity (especially for textiles) to reduce returns and complaints.
- Want a reliable workflow: naming, folders, repeatable quality.
This won’t fit if you…
- Only want “cheap per photo” without defining SKUs, views or requirements.
- Want industrial-scale output (1,000+ final images) with minimum editing at a rock-bottom unit cost.
- Expect advanced cut-outs, complex shadows or compositing as standard without paying for it.
What you’re actually buying with E-commerce photography prices
In e-commerce, value is not the shutter click. It’s the system:
- Color fidelity and consistency: The catalog sells better (and is returned less) when the color is consistent and credible.
- Uniform white background on camera. Clean and controlled lighting (not "gray", not dirty, not uneven).
- Clean e-commerce retouching: Dust/mark removal, uniformity, minor corrections… without “ruining” the product.
- Organization for your team: Folders and consistent naming so marketing and store don't waste time.
- Deadlines and logistics (shipping, returns, travel if applicable).
- Deliverables (web/social media vs. print, TIFF/CMYK, specific cropping).
That’s why I’m not giving you a generic “price per photo” here: I’m giving you a system that makes it clear what’s included and what’s not.
It is very important that before requesting a quote you read this entire page, so we avoid wasting time and energy.
Three definitions that prevent misunderstandings
SKU = product / reference / colour / variant. If it changes, it’s a new SKU.
A final view is one delivered image: an angle, a detail, packaging, texture, label, etc.
White background is not the same as a cut-out
White/uniform background: achieved with lighting and control in-camera.
Cut-out / PNG / #FFFFFF / clipping path: extra edge work and precision requirements. It’s a different workload and is quoted separately.
This is where many quotes break. These E-commerce photography prices keep it transparent.
E-commerce photography prices: packages without model (white/uniform background)

FAQ
What’s the difference between a white background and a cut-out?
White/uniform background is achieved through lighting and control. A cut-out (PNG / clipping path / #FFFFFF absolute) requires additional edge work and is quoted separately.
Can I start with a small project?
Yes. Launch Starter is designed exactly for that: testing quality and workflow without improvisation.
Do jewellery catalogues fall under these E-commerce photography prices?
If you want higher-end jewellery finishing even for catalogue, it often fits better under dedicated jewellery e-commerce premium packages. For simple jewellery with standard requirements, it may fit e-commerce standard depending on scope.
Where are you based?
I’m based in Estepona (Málaga). Shipping is accepted, and travel/on-location work is quoted by scope.
If you want images that improve your store—not just “photos that exist”—these E-commerce photography prices are built for consistency and reliable delivery.
