Commercial photography and video, wherever your business works.

Work is priced by the day and by the deliverable rather than per image or per head, so the number depends on the service, how long we are on site, how many people are being photographed and where in Virginia the shoot happens. Send a brief using the form below — service, location, date and roughly what you need — and you will have a fixed quote, not a range, within one business day. Nothing appears on the invoice that was not in that quote. Full published rates for every service are on the pricing page.

Standard delivery is 3 business days for headshots and events, and 5 business days for brand photography. Video projects run two to three weeks depending on scope. A 24-hour rush option is available on photo work and can be requested in your brief.

Three corridors and everything between their end points. I-95 runs Quantico to Richmond — Quantico, Triangle, Dumfries, Stafford, Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, Caroline County, Ashland, Hanover and Richmond. Route 29 runs Gainesville to Charlottesville — Gainesville, Warrenton, Culpeper, Madison and Charlottesville. I-64 runs Charlottesville to Richmond — Charlottesville, Zion Crossroads, Louisa, Goochland, Short Pump and Richmond. Travel anywhere on those corridors is included in your quote.

No. Those six are the most-booked packages and the ones we can price instantly, but Virginia Business Visuals is a commercial photography practice and we shoot to the business requirement. That regularly includes podcast and interview production, product and packaging, architectural and interior work, industrial and manufacturing floors, construction progress documentation, aerial and drone coverage, food and hospitality, editorial portraiture, trade show booths and annual report photography. If the job is not on the list, describe it and we will scope and price it.

Yes. Headshot days run on a rolling five-minute schedule with an on-site studio setup, so a 40-person team is typically finished in a single morning. Tell us the headcount in your brief and the quote will reflect it.

You receive full commercial usage rights to every delivered image and video for marketing, web, print, social and recruiting use. There is no per-image licensing, no usage window and no extra fee for putting the work on a billboard or in a pitch deck.

Our network includes professionals who hold individual personnel clearance eligibility. That eligibility belongs to the individual — not to us — and it is verified by the requesting organization: your FSO or security office sponsors the assignment and submits the verification request to DCSA. We do not advertise specific clearance levels, agencies or programs, consistent with government guidance on how clearances may be discussed publicly.

Not currently, and no. An FCL must be sponsored by a government contracting activity or a cleared contractor in connection with a legitimate classified requirement — it cannot be self-initiated. We intend to pursue one and welcome sponsorship on qualifying contracts. We do not handle classified material: classified images, recordings and graphics require approved safeguarding under the customer’s control. We coordinate talent, contracting, production planning and on-site procedures; the customer controls transfer, review and storage. Unclassified work at your facility — executive portraits, ceremonies, conferences, recruiting and training video, public-affairs photography and facility documentation approved for public release — is our largest service lane.

Reschedule at no charge with more than 72 hours’ notice; your payment moves to the new date. For outdoor work we agree a weather call the afternoon before, so nobody is standing in a parking lot deciding at 8am.

Send a brief below and you get a reply within one business day with a fixed quote and a call sheet. Jobs are reserved with payment in full — major cards, plus Affirm, Afterpay and Klarna, and purchase orders for approved organizations. From there we need a point of contact, a load-in time and parking details.
