Advantages to Judy Doherty Photography Studio

My full-service production studio gives clients everything they need for great imagery from the creative brief to the final image. This including art direction, set creation, props, surfaces, food and product styling, photography, motion graphics, and all post-production. Plus I guarantee your satisfaction.

Here are just a few of the many benefits my service brings to my clients:

- Communicate all aspects of the creation process remotely in realtime through a choice of multiple channels.
- In house styling with in-house props, surfaces, and set construction. Collaboration with outside stylists. Curation for props and surfaces as needed.
- Medium format Phase One cameras for high-resolution images.
- Two studios with Broncolor lights.
- Two covered outdoor production areas.
- Ample and expandable dry storage, refrigerators, and freezers.
- Professionally equipped kitchen with an amazing array of equipment and tools. This includes an indoor area and an outdoor covered production area. The ability to create branded recipes, food styling, and food and beverage pairings.
- Fresh stuff: there is an onsite garden with fresh herbs, flowers, and veggies. Bay area stores and farms supply amazing ingredients all year.
- Bay Area location: The studio is in Castro Valley, a suburb of Oakland, located just 30 minutes from San Francisco.

I have collected props and surfaces my entire career from European locations, Artisan wood craftsman, Antique dealers worldwide, artists, paper stores, Italian tile importers, Napa kitchen stores, and more! I can develop recipes and style food to tell branded stories for the camera. My clients love this lean creation process.

Clients can ship products from out of state or I will happily pick up items in the Bay Area as part of my service. It is easy to get your products to me and we prepare everything for the camera for a great shoot. Contact me if you need images. I would love to help! Services include art direction and branding, set design, test shots, styling, photography, retouching, compositing, motion, and file output for any project from social media to web to apps to print marketing.
