Many of our mass retail customers ask us what is the most efficient way to ensure quality, consistent photography at a good price. We believe one good solution is to utilize a company such as YFYJupiter that can produce the artwork and photography all in-house. Another strong measure is if the company's photo studios are located in China close to the product vendors and thus product merchandise. YFYJupiter is a company built around these concepts. With our US and Asia based photography and design studios, we can create original brand design, both artwork and photography, helping to limit your amount of project coordination by dealing with a single company for all creative services. In addition we have a large team of structural design engineers who help create cost saving die line structure. By consolidating creative services our customers save time and internal costs. As well YFYJupiter is often able to offer a lower cost for photography since it is bundled into the job, rather than a stand alone project.
