Six things that move a quote
Location
Studio work, on-location work and international travel sit at different budget levels. A controlled studio set is the most predictable; a shoot across several locations, or one requiring travel outside the BiH region, adds logistics, permits and time that we cost separately. Production services covers location scouting and fixer rates.
Number of final deliverables
The count of final retouched images or finished video cuts is the largest single driver. Ten polished hero frames and two hundred event selects are very different post-production loads even from the same shoot day.
Model casting and fees
Casting, model day-rates and agency fees are quoted on top of the production day. Briefs that need specific talent, several models, or wardrobe and styling support carry those costs directly. See casting & talent services for details.
Usage rights required
Commercial, editorial, time-limited and unlimited licences are priced differently. Broad usage across paid media and long campaign windows costs more than a single-territory, single-channel run. We agree the scope in writing before production. See stock and licensing for exclusive buy-out options.
Turnaround time
Standard delivery is built into the quote. Compressed timelines — same-week edits, overnight selects for a launch — reorder the schedule and are priced as expedited work. Post-production rates are quoted per project.
Post-production complexity
Compositing, advanced retouching, colour grading, motion graphics and sound design extend post beyond the standard pass. The more finishing a deliverable needs, the larger the post line on the quote. View post-production rates for itemised starting points.
Drone and specialist equipment
Aerial and drone work (DJI Mavic 3 Cine, Avata 2) requires aviation-authority clearance for certain locations and adds half-day or day rates on top of the ground shoot. FPV work with the Avata 2 requires a separate risk assessment on set. See gear hire rates above or gear rental details.
Specialist disciplines
Common questions about our newer services
Do you serve Gulf and MENA clients?
Yes. We have 20+ years of experience serving UAE, Qatar, KSA and wider MENA — either sending a Sarajevo-based crew to the region, or acting as producer for Gulf productions that want a Balkans location or talent base. Rates are in EUR; AED and USD equivalents provided on request. See Gulf & MENA production for full details.
What is included in the real estate photography bundle?
The bundle combines architecture stills (Hasselblad 100 MP), licensed drone aerials and a 360° HDR virtual tour into a single shoot day from €1,200. All three deliverables are produced simultaneously — retouched stills, aerial video and a floor-plan-overlay interactive embed delivered together. Developer and multi-property packages are available at reduced per-unit rates. See real estate photography.
How does the stock submission service work?
We audit your library, apply AI-assisted IPTC keywording, optimise titles and descriptions for each agency's discovery algorithm, then submit to Shutterstock, Adobe Stock and Getty / iStock in bulk. Priced from €0.50 per image with volume tiers — bring 500 images or 50,000. You receive a submission report and ongoing performance tracking. See stock submission service.
Can UGC and podcast content run on a monthly retainer?
Yes. Monthly content retainers start from €800/month for a defined scope — a set number of UGC clips or podcast episodes at a reduced per-unit rate. Works well for brands running always-on paid social or a regular brand show. See UGC & native social, video podcast production, or enquire about a retainer →
Do you shoot fashion, beauty, food and sport?
Yes — all four are active disciplines. Fashion & beauty photography starts from €1,200/day covering styled shoots, editorial and campaign work — hair, make-up and wardrobe quoted separately. Food & drink photography starts from €950/day, studio or on-location with controlled lighting. Sport & action photography starts from €1,200/day for athlete campaigns and lifestyle sport. All three can be combined with video on a single day for maximum deliverable output.
How much cheaper is AI-assisted retouching versus manual?
AI-assisted batch retouching starts from €25 per image (minimum 50 images) compared to €50–120 per image for a full manual commercial finish. The AI base pass handles exposure, colour consistency, skin smoothing and background cleanup; every frame then receives a human QC check before delivery. Suitable for e-commerce sets, large stock batches and campaign selects where volume and speed matter. See the AI & synthetic section or the full AI visual services page.
