Chiara Gavioli

Yes, it's my core business which I've consolidated over the past 8 years, reaching a deep and vertical level of expertise and a recognizable personal style. However, I also work in product photography and hospitality photography, as these disciplines intertwine and require a very similar visual sensitivity.

I can manage the entire production independently to ensure a coherent and original visual narrative to tell your story, but I can also collaborate as a photographer with external stylists or put my experience in cooking and styling at the service of other photographer colleagues.

I have a prop collection personally curated over the years: a collection of unique pieces ranging from the finest Italian ceramists to objects found during my travels in France and Japan. For special set design needs, I also handle prop hunting, directly managing the rental or purchase of specific pieces.

Timelines vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project. For large-scale productions involving travel or team coordination, I recommend at least a two-month lead time. For studio-based sessions, booking at least three weeks in advance ensures a smooth and efficient workflow. On a tight deadline? Reach out anyway. We can assess the project's feasibility together; please note that a rush fee will apply for expedited delivery.

Every project has its own timeline, and meeting your deadlines is a priority whenever possible. For standard studio sessions, you can typically expect your edited photos within 10 business days. For larger-scale productions, we will establish a tailored delivery schedule during the initial planning phase to ensure everything aligns with your launch dates.

Every project comes with a tailored usage license designed around your specific needs. By default, my packages include web and organic social media rights within your country for two years. If you require more—such as paid advertising (Meta, Google), print materials, or extended durations—we can easily integrate specific rights. While total, perpetual, and worldwide buyouts are available, they represent a significant investment that rarely proves truly necessary: part of my role is to help you optimize costs by calibrating the license to your actual usage. Please note that, per standard legal practice, intellectual property and moral rights remain with the author.

For all commissioned projects, every image is created exclusively for you and will never be resold to third parties. For images selected from my existing stock archive, exclusivity is not guaranteed by default, however I offer the option to secure exclusive rights for specific regions or timeframes for an additional fee, preventing your competitors from using the same visuals.

Absolutely. While I have a distinct photographic style, my priority is ensuring the imagery speaks with your brand's unique voice. Every detail—from the quality of light to the curated color palette—is meticulously studied to integrate seamlessly with your existing identity. I place my creativity and experience at the service of your story to build a visual language that is both striking and unmistakably yours.

Free reshoots are not included in my standard packages. My workflow is designed to eliminate the need for reworks through a meticulous pre-production phase: a clear, comprehensive brief and shared planning are the best ways to ensure we are perfectly aligned on the final result. Should a new session be requested due to changes in the originally agreed-upon brief, the reshoot will be quoted as a percentage of the initial fee.

I deliver exclusively fully-processed and post-produced images. I view digital processing, color grading, and retouching as inseparable parts of my creative process; they are the final, essential steps in defining the visual language that strengthens your brand identity. Unprocessed RAW files are not provided under any circumstances. However, if your project has specific technical requirements, I can provide high-resolution, post-produced files in TIFF format upon request.
