commercial photographer
Sells through images
A commercial photographer takes pictures for business purposes—advertising, marketing, product catalogs, corporate materials.
The work is distinguished from fine art photography by its commercial intent: someone is paying for images that serve a business goal.
We hired a commercial photographer for the new product line.
The term covers everything from food and fashion shoots to headshots and real estate listings.
