High-Quality Photography is Often the First Thing That Potential Customers Notice.

Show your team, facility, and grounds in their best light with high-resolution pictures from the experienced photographers at Blue Fire Media. When building your website, cell phone photography just won’t do, you need appealing photos that clearly and effectively showcase the quality and pride you have in your products. Beyond just snapping photos, we use state-of-the-art software to edit and retouch your pictures until they reflect the professionalism of your business.

Photo Optimization

Photo Optimization

Optimized Photos Improve the Aesthetic and Performance of Your Site.

While it’s nice to have clear pictures on your website, not every photo is beneficial to your site. Some pictures may look nice, but if they are larger files, they will slow down the performance of your website. At Blue Fire Media, we take the extra steps to properly optimize and compress the photo files, so they will load faster and improve the overall performance of your website. We also make sure that each image is tagged with alt text to make them accessible to people with vision impairments.

360 Photos & Video

Interactive Panoramic Imagery That Allows Your Customers to See the Full Picture.

One of the best ways to give your customers a feel for your business is through clear, high-resolution pictures and videos. New technology allows for 360 photos and videos that capture the entirety of your company’s physical locations. Blue Fire Media has the equipment and ability to utilize this technology to give customers the opportunity to click, drag, and scroll on panoramic pictures and videos that showcase your business and its products.

Answers About Our Photography Services

Frequently Asked Questions

How can professional photography services help my business get found?

Photography helps to play some part in your websites search engine optimization. Because the metadata used on a photograph can contain information on one’s industry, not only will it help to ensure that your business’s site is easier to find when searching for photos of your industry, but it will also help to improve your site’s ranking on search engines.

How can I tell if my website’s photos need to be updated?

While it isn’t always necessary to update your website’s images, making sure that your websites pages are displaying clear images is important for your site’s overall presentation. Whether an image is heavily pixelated or the aspect ratio of the photo doesn’t fit well with the rest of the site, an older photo could help contribute to a bad first impression with your customers. If you’ve noticed any issues like this on your current website, your old photos may display the same issues when used on an updated website, and in such cases, getting updated photography of your business would become necessary.

Why is photography and video so important for my website?

Visual presentation is important for making a good impression with first time visitors. Making sure that your new website is populated with eye catching, professionally taken photos and videos is an excellent way to present your businesses products and services to potential customers. With our photography and video services, we can ensure that your website has the visuals it needs to to show the best your business has to offer.

Can we use our own pictures on our website?

You are welcome to provide your own photos for the website, but some photos can potentially cause aesthetic or functional issues. Larger photo file sizes can slow down the performance of your site. Smaller photos can become pixelated and hurt the look of your site. We can analyze the pictures you have to determine if they will work properly on your site. In the case that your pictures won’t work, we can provide photography services for clear, vibrant photos on your site.
