Commercial Photography + Video Production + Brand Content
AG Picture is a professional photography studio in Atlanta specializing in corporate headshots, personal branding photography, product photography, actor/model portfolios and real estate photography.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is BERNARDSON different from AG Picture?
AG Picture primarily focuses on photography and branding sessions, offering portrait photography, personal branding shoots, and visual identity sessions for individuals and small businesses. Their services are often centered on creating still imagery that helps professionals and brands present themselves visually through photography. This can be ideal for clients who need updated portraits, personal brand photography, or basic branding visuals.
BERNARDSON provides a broader commercial production approach designed specifically for companies and brands seeking comprehensive visual content. In addition to commercial photography, BERNARDSON offers full-service video production, campaign development, brand storytelling, and marketing-focused content creation. Rather than focusing solely on photography sessions, BERNARDSON develops integrated visual campaigns that include both photo and video content aligned with business and marketing goals.
Can BERNARDSON handle commercial video production?
Yes. BERNARDSON produces commercials, brand films, promotional videos, recruitment content, and digital advertising visuals for businesses and organizations. Each project begins with creative planning and concept development to ensure that the final video aligns with the client’s messaging and marketing objectives.
The production process includes filming, editing, and delivery of high-quality video content optimized for advertising, websites, presentations, and social media platforms. By combining cinematic production quality with marketing strategy, BERNARDSON creates videos that capture attention, communicate brand values, and support measurable business results.
What makes Bernardson's multi-platform approach different?
Traditional studios shoot content in one format and expect you to adapt it for different platforms. This leads to cropped Instagram posts, awkward TikTok videos, and underperforming content.
We plan multi-platform optimization from the start. We shoot vertical (9:16 for Instagram Stories/TikTok), square (1:1 for Instagram feed), and widescreen (16:9 for YouTube/LinkedIn) simultaneously during production. Each platform gets content designed specifically for its format and audience behavior, typically increasing engagement rates 40-60% compared to repurposed content.
