The basics.
Who I am, who I work with, what makes the work different, and how to tell if I am the right fit for what you are building.
ISJDESIGNS is a commercial photography, videography, and creative strategy business. I create visual content that helps businesses and brands look better online, market themselves more effectively, and present themselves with intention. That includes product photography, food photography, video production, drone aerials, UGC, creative direction, and brand consulting.
Businesses that care about how they show up. That includes restaurants, bars, automotive shops, industrial and manufacturing companies, medical and dental practices, local service businesses, and product brands that need content for e-commerce, social media, and advertising. I work with owner-led companies, family businesses, and growing brands that value creative input over generic execution.
You are not just hiring someone to show up with a camera. You are hiring creative direction, visual taste, and marketing instinct. I think about your customer, your platform, and your competition before I press the shutter. The goal is not just to make things look good. It is to create content with a purpose that actually moves your business forward.
You are probably a good fit if you care about how your business looks, want content that feels intentional, and value creative input over cookie-cutter execution. ISJDESIGNS is built for brands and businesses that want more than the safest possible version of everything.
What I actually do.
Photography and video are the foundation. Drone aerials, Google ranking visuals, and small-scope product work are all here too. Scope scales to what you actually need.
Yes. Photography and video from the same person, the same creative vision, the same shoot. That includes product content, brand content, food and beverage, automotive, industrial, drone aerials, short-form social video, brand films, commercials, and more. Up to 8K cinematic video with professional audio, gimbal stabilization, and full post-production.
Yes. I am FAA Part 107 licensed and fly the DJI Mavic 4 Pro. Drone photography and videography for real estate, commercial properties, construction, events, and branded content. This is professional aerial content, not hobbyist drone footage.
That is absolutely fine. Some clients need a full creative partnership. Others just need strong product content done right. The scope scales to match what you actually need. No pressure to buy more than what makes sense for your business.
Yes. I am a trusted Google Contributor with over 34 million views. I photograph your business and upload search-optimized images directly to your Google listing from my Contributor account so your best visuals show up first when customers are deciding where to go. It is one of the most underused marketing tools for local businesses.
Where I work.
Pittsburgh and Western PA in person, plus nationwide product work for brands that ship to the studio. Two lanes, one standard of work.
No. I operate in two lanes. Locally, I work with businesses across Pittsburgh, the South Hills, Bridgeville, Canonsburg, Washington, Robinson Township, and Western PA. Nationally, brands ship products to my studio for professional photography, video, and content creation. I also travel for the right projects when the scope calls for it.
Yes. Brands anywhere in the U.S. ship products directly to my Pittsburgh studio for product photography, product video, lifestyle imagery, and UGC-style content. You send the product. I handle the concept, the shoot, and the editing. You get polished, ready-to-use content back in your inbox.
How it actually runs.
No mystery, no rigid packages, no surprise charges. Every project gets a custom quote, a clear timeline, and a straightforward path from first call to final delivery.
No. A lot of clients know they need better content but are not sure exactly what format, style, or deliverables make the most sense. That is part of what I do. I help shape the concept, the shot list, the content direction, and the overall approach so the final assets actually serve your business goals.
It starts with a conversation. You tell me what you need, where the content will be used, and what your goals are. I come back with a plan, a quote, and a production approach. From there, I handle the shoot and deliver professionally edited assets ready to use. Simple, clear, and built around your schedule.
Every project is quoted individually based on scope, deliverables, production needs, and location. There are no generic packages. You get a custom quote that reflects what your project actually requires. The best way to get accurate pricing is to reach out with some context about what you need.
It depends on the project, but timelines are always discussed up front so expectations are clear before production begins. You will know exactly when to expect your finished assets before I start.
Reach out through the contact form with a little info about your business, what you need, and where you are located. I follow up personally within 24 hours to figure out the right direction for your project.
