CTRL.M Commercial Imagery

Brand images
that earn
their keep.

Custom commercial imagery for businesses that treat visuals as an investment rather than a line item. You send a brief — or your own photos — and we run the CTRL.M visual systems behind it. Finished images in three business days, two revision rounds included, priced before you ask.

Built for

  • Businesses that need a steady stream of on-brand imagery, not one hero shot
  • Founders who know what a photo shoot costs and want the same quality for less
  • Brands with a look to protect — palette, tone, a point of view
  • Anyone who wants their own face or product in the work, done consistently
  • People who can approve in two rounds and move

Not built for

  • "Can you just make me something and I'll know it when I see it"
  • Unlimited revisions, no brief, no deadline
  • Free samples before a paid engagement
  • Work where nobody can say what success looks like
  • Budgets below the entry tier — the prompt library is free, start there
Before you look at the prices

Compare it to
the right thing.

Next to a $5 prompt these numbers look high. Next to what brand imagery actually costs, they don't. Here is what the same fifteen images run everywhere else.

A day rate is not the final price. Studio rental, models, stylists, props and post-production are line items on top of a photographer's fee. Everything on this page is the whole number.
A shoot gets you things this doesn't — your real space, your real team, on a real day. When you need your actual face or product in the frame, that is exactly what the Likeness tiers are for.
One shoot gives you one look. A set here spans three visual systems, so a month of posting doesn't read like it all came from the same afternoon.
Pricing

Published, not negotiated.

Every price is on this page so you can decide before you contact us. Work involving your own likeness or product photography costs more than running our systems on our references — it takes reference handling, retries and likeness review, and it is the part nobody else does consistently.
