Increasing Sales: High-quality images improve conversion rates in e-commerce and print advertising.
Brand Recognition: Professional visuals establish credibility and consistency.
Storytelling: Images communicate a brand’s message effectively.
SEO & Online Visibility: Optimized images improve website rankings and social media engagement.

What is a Commercial Photographer? A commercial photographer is a professional who captures high-quality images specifically for business use. These images are used for advertising, branding, marketing, and product promotion. Unlike general photography, commercial photography is designed to drive sales, enhance brand identity, and communicate a company’s message visually. Commercial photographers work with businesses across various industries, including retail, hospitality, real estate, fashion, and corporate sectors. At Solvis, we provide the highest quality commercial photography. Contact us for pricing.
The cost of a commercial photographer varies based on experience, location, project scope, and usage rights. On average, commercial photography rates can range from $100 to $500 per hour or $500 to $15,000+ per project. Some photographers charge day rates between $1,000 to $5,000, or more.

As a 4-time award-winning Fine Arts Photographer, William leads the photo and video department at Solvis Media.
“I’m always in awe of how artists start with nothing – a blank canvas, a strip of film, a digital sensor – and turn it into something incredible. I love creating new things from scratch too – be it a short film or a darkroom print. I’m unbelievably blessed to be able to call something I’m so passionate about, my career. I’ve made some of my favorite prints available for purchase on my personal website, as well as certain stores around Connecticut & New England.”
