Commercial photography for Lincoln businesses that take their image seriously

Lincoln businesses are good at a lot of things. Most are not great at visuals, and it shows — a website hero from 2019, a team page with six different headshot styles, products that only exist as phone snapshots. That's the gap we fill. We make commercial photography that does a job: product imagery that converts on a website, lifestyle photography that makes a brand impossible to scroll past, team and leadership portraits that get you taken seriously in the room.

We're based downtown at 1200 N Street and shoot across the city — the Haymarket, the Telegraph District, SouthPointe, the industrial corridors along Cornhusker Highway and North 27th, and the office parks out by Pine Lake. If it's in Lincoln, it's in our base service area with no travel line.

What we shoot

Brand and lifestyle — your people, your space, and your product in use, shot for the website, paid social, and pitch decks.

Product — e-commerce, catalog, and look-book work, in our Lincoln studio or on location.

Team and leadership — consistent headshots and environmental portraits for the About page, LinkedIn, and press.

Facilities and industrial — production floors, clinics, offices, showrooms, and construction progress.

Hospitality and retail — restaurants, bars, breweries, lounges, and shops that need atmosphere content.

Commercial video — brand films, recruiting and culture video, product video, and vertical Reels, shot by the same crew on the same day as the stills.

Who we work with

Capital Cigar Lounge is our flagship retainer client — in the most recent 90 days their Instagram pulled 89,000+ views and top-post engagement rose more than 4× on content we shot. Read the Capital Cigar case study. Beyond that, we shoot for restaurants and bars, professional-service firms, clinics, small fashion and product brands, real estate brokerages, builders, and personal brands across Lincoln — and when a project needs motion as well as stills, the same crew handles video production in Lincoln. If your business needs to look as serious as it actually is, that's the job.

How commercial shoots are priced

Half day: $600 — about four hours, one location, 40+ color-graded images, commercial license, two-week delivery.

Full day: $1,100 — eight hours, multiple locations, 100+ images, a pre-production planning call, commercial license, two-week delivery.

Multi-day campaign: from $2,500 — two or more shoot days, creative direction and shot list, 200+ images, optional video.

Monthly content retainers — the best per-shoot value — start at $1,500/month for ongoing photo and short-form video. Commercial video on its own follows the same day rates. Every package includes the commercial license: advertising, web, print, and marketing use, written in rather than unlocked with a separate fee. The full line-item breakdown is on the Investment page, and what commercial photographers charge in Lincoln in 2026 covers the market brackets and what usage licensing adds. Need matched headshots for the whole roster on the same day? That's a team headshot day.

What a Lincoln commercial shoot looks like

1. A free 30-minute planning call — what the images need to do, where they'll live, and what's wrong with what you have now. You leave with a scope and a quote.

2. Shot list and schedule — built against your actual deliverables, so a half day stays a half day and nothing gets squeezed.

3. The shoot — on location at your business, or in our Lincoln studio for controlled product and portrait work. Photo and video together when you've booked both.

4. Delivery within two weeks — a color-graded gallery organized for web, social, and print, with rush turnaround (3–5 business days) available for launches.

Omaha and the rest of Nebraska

Omaha is part of our base service area — no travel surcharge anywhere in the Lincoln–Omaha corridor. For businesses elsewhere in the state, from Grand Island to Norfolk to North Platte, we run the same shoots with travel quoted per job at actual cost; the statewide commercial page lays out exactly where we go and how travel is priced.
