Video Production Packages
Freelance Videographer + Photographer Perth | Sam Irwin
Commissioning a video for the first time, or working with a new production company, comes with a lot of unknowns.
We keep the process straightforward so you know exactly what to expect at every stage, from the first conversation to the final file in your inbox.
Every package below is a fixed price with a defined scope, so you know what you are getting and what you are paying before anything is booked.
I also offer freelance rates for filming only - please contact me to discuss your needs.

1. Discovery Call / Email
We start with a conversation. We want to understand what you are trying to achieve, who the audience is, and what success looks like for your business. This takes 10 to 20 minutes and can happen over the phone, email, or in person across Perth.
2. Proposal and Quote
Based on your brief, we put together a clear proposal outlining the scope, deliverables, timeline, and investment. No vague estimates and no hidden costs that appear later. What is in the quote is what you pay. We aim to work strategically to capture as much content as possible to re-purpose for social media.
3. Pre-Production
This is where the groundwork happens. We confirm locations and timings. For construction sites we handle White Card requirements and any relevant permits for drone operations. Good pre-production is what separates a smooth shoot from a stressful one.
4. Production
We show up prepared, on time, and ready to work efficiently around your team and schedule. Whether it is a single half-day shoot or a multi-day documentary production, we work to minimise disruption to your business while capturing everything we need.
5. Post-Production
Editing, colour grading, sound design, music licensing, and motion graphics are all handled in-house. You will receive a first cut for review, three rounds of revisions are included as standard, and the final deliverable is provided in the formats you need for your channels.
6. Delivery
Final files are delivered via a private download link. Raw media is supplied on request and archived for 12 months. Production stills from every shoot day are included as standard.

"I had the pleasure of working with Sam on a promotional video shoot for my company. His ability to plan, direct and frame up the entire shoot from a minimal concept brief was world-class. I was especially impressed by his ability to improvise and adapt his video work on the spot, as I had to improvise a lot of the scenes on the day. His creative input and collaboration really helped me tell my story in a professional, engaging way and the high quality of the whole production hugely impressed my audience."
