Real Questions. Straight Answers.

Whether you're a first-time client or you've been watching Studio Chromatic for a while, here's everything you need to know before we work together.

  • Studio Chromatic is a creative studio offering photography, social media strategy, and brand strategy services. We work with small businesses, entrepreneurs, and personal brands who are ready to show up with intention and visuals that actually convert.

  • We work with small businesses, founders, content creators, and brands across industries. Our clients are based in Orlando, Central and South Florida as well as nationwide. If you have a vision and want a strategic creative partner to bring it to life, we are probably a fit.

  • Head to our Contact page and tell us a little about your project. We will follow up to schedule a discovery call and talk through your goals, timeline, and budget.

  • Both. We offer monthly retainer packages for ongoing social media and brand strategy clients, as well as project-based pricing for photography and one-time brand strategy engagements. We will recommend the right structure based on what you need.

  • A few things. First, every service at Studio Chromatic is rooted in strategy. We do not just make things look good. We make sure they are working toward a real business goal. Second, our founder brings a background that spans enterprise communications, editorial media, fashion styling, and brand development. That range informs how we approach every client differently, without a one-size-fits-all template. Third, we are a small studio by design, which means you get direct access and genuine investment in your brand.

  • We track the metrics that matter for your specific goals: reach, engagement rate, follower growth, website clicks, saves, and shares depending on what you are optimizing for. Every client receives a monthly performance report with context, not just numbers. We adjust the strategy based on what the data tells us.

Other questions you may have

Q: How much do Studio Chromatic services cost?

A: Pricing depends on the service, scope, and timeline. Photography is priced per project. Social media strategy and brand strategy are available as project engagements or ongoing monthly retainers. We do not publish a fixed rate sheet because every client's needs are different, and we would rather give you accurate pricing based on your actual project than a number that doesn't reflect what you need. Reach out through the Contact page and we will follow up with options.

Q: What is your process from inquiry to project launch?

A: It starts with a Contact form submission. From there we schedule a discovery call to learn about your goals, timeline, and budget. If we are a fit, we send a proposal outlining scope, deliverables, timeline, and investment. Once you approve the proposal, we send a service agreement and deposit invoice. Work begins after both are received.

Q: Do you require a deposit?

A: Yes. All projects require a 50% deposit to secure your place on our calendar and initiate the project. The remaining balance is due before final deliverables are delivered or published. Payment plan options are available for larger project scopes and will be discussed during the proposal stage.

Q: What does your contract cover?

A: Our service agreement outlines the full scope of work, deliverables, timeline, revision rounds, payment terms, cancellation policy, and usage rights for any creative assets. We want everything clear before we start so both sides are protected and the project can move smoothly.

Q: How many revisions are included?

A: Revision rounds vary by service and are outlined in your proposal and contract. We build in enough rounds to get the work right without scope creep. If additional revisions are needed beyond what is included, we will discuss that transparently before proceeding.

Q: What if I need to reschedule or cancel?

A: Life happens and we understand that. Rescheduling policies and cancellation terms are outlined in your service agreement. For photography shoots specifically, we ask for at least 48 hours notice for rescheduling. Deposits are non-refundable but may be applied to a rescheduled date depending on the circumstances.

Q: What does brand strategy actually mean, and why does it matter?

A: Brand strategy is the foundation that everything else is built on. It is the work of getting clear on who your brand is, who it is for, what it stands for, and how it communicates. Without that foundation, even beautiful visuals and smart content can feel disconnected or fail to convert. Brand strategy gives your business a through-line that makes every decision, from what you post to how you pitch, easier and more effective.

Q: What does a brand strategy engagement with Studio Chromatic include?

A: A brand strategy project with Studio Chromatic typically covers brand positioning, target audience definition, competitive landscape research, messaging frameworks, brand voice development, and visual direction guidelines. Depending on scope it may also include a brand naming or renaming process, tagline development, and a brand playbook your whole team can reference.

Q: How long does brand strategy take?

A: A focused brand strategy project takes three to six weeks from kickoff to final deliverable, depending on scope and how quickly feedback rounds move. For clients who want ongoing brand consulting, we offer monthly retainer arrangements that keep a strategic partner in your corner as your business evolves.

Q: My business has been around for a while. Do I still need brand strategy?

A: Often, yes. Many established businesses come to us because something about how they are showing up no longer reflects where they are going. Whether you are pivoting, scaling, launching a new offer, or just feeling like your brand has grown past its original identity, a strategy engagement can bring everything back into alignment. It is not just for startups.

Q: Can I do brand strategy without also doing photography or social media?

A: Absolutely. Brand strategy is a standalone service and a complete deliverable on its own. That said, many clients find that moving into photography or social media strategy after their brand foundation is set produces dramatically better results. We will be honest with you about what we think you need and in what order.
