# Graphic Design & Photography in Hereford

Source: https://dijitulmedia.co.uk/locations/hereford/

> Herefordshire cider makers, food producers and tourism businesses can use dijitul for labels, packaging, leaflets, logos and product photography. All design is done remotely from Mansfield and sent as print-ready files; photography is shot on location in Hereford and the county with travel quoted. Product photography costs from £25 + VAT per image and logos from £150 + VAT.

Herefordshire is one of the most rural counties in England, and its small cathedral city lives largely off what the land produces: food, drink and farming services. Heineken's Bulmers cider mill is a major employer, and plenty of smaller cider and perry makers work from farms around the county. The county also grows soft fruit and hops and raises beef and poultry, so packing, processing and agricultural services employ a lot of people. For a design studio, that means labels, packaging and product photography above almost everything else.

A craft cider or a farm-made chutney often competes on a deli shelf or a web shop against much bigger brands. Good packaging design does a lot of the work. Herefordshire producers commonly ask for:

- Bottle and can labels with the legal panel, ABV and allergen text laid out clearly and set to the printer's die
- Gift packs, outer cases and point of sale for farm shops and food halls
- Product photography on white for online shops, plus orchard, farm and kitchen shots that show where the product comes from
- Trade price lists and sell sheets for wholesalers and pubs

Tourism is the other big strand. The cathedral's Mappa Mundi, the Wye Valley and the timber-framed villages bring visitors, which supports hotels, holiday lets, pubs and attractions. They need leaflets, illustrated maps, menus and booking-friendly photography. The Hereford Enterprise Zone at Skylon Park targets defence and security, advanced manufacturing and food and drink, so there is also demand for technical drawings, sober corporate branding and capability documents. NMiTE, the engineering institute that opened in the city, adds student and start-up projects. We do all of the design remotely from Mansfield, which suits a county where distances are long. Photography and video are shot on location, whether in the city or at an orchard, with travel quoted first.

### Can you design cider labels for a Herefordshire producer?

Yes. Label design is quoted per job, or charged at £45 an hour + VAT. dijitul sets artwork to your label printer's die and roll layout, with the legal panel, ABV and allergen information clear and readable. You confirm the legal wording; we supply print-ready PDF and editable source files.

### Will you photograph our products at our farm near Hereford?

We will. Product photography starts from £25 + VAT per image, and a half day on location is from £295 + VAT if you also want orchard or farm shots. Travel from Mansfield to Herefordshire is added to the quote, so the full price is agreed before booking.

### Do you work with businesses in Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye and Leominster?

Yes. Design is done remotely, so businesses in Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye, Leominster, Bromyard and Kington work with dijitul exactly as Hereford firms do. Proofs and final files arrive by email, and each photography visit is quoted individually.
