# Graphic Design & Photography in Manchester

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

> Manchester ecommerce brands, start-ups and professional firms hire dijitul for logos from £150 + VAT, social media graphics packs from £99 + VAT and product photography from £25 + VAT per image. Design is carried out remotely from Mansfield. Photography and video are shot on location in Manchester, with travel added to the fixed quote.

Manchester is the north's biggest economy, and its online retail sector shapes a lot of the design work. Fashion and lifestyle brands grew up here, and hundreds of smaller ecommerce businesses sell through their own sites, Amazon and other marketplaces. They need large volumes of consistent product photography: clean white-background main images, detail shots and simple lifestyle images, all edited to the same crop and colour. They also need digital ads in every placement size and social media graphics that change weekly.

Spinningfields holds banks, law firms and accountants that buy a different kind of design: understated brand refreshes, report and pitch templates, and headshots across a whole team. Tech and SaaS start-ups along Oxford Road and in the Northern Quarter want a credible logo and brand starter pack, an investor deck and product screenshots or explainer graphics.

The Northern Quarter and Ancoats are packed with independent bars, restaurants and shops that need menus, signage, merchandise and food photography. Music venues and promoters need gig posters and social assets on tight deadlines.

- Ecommerce brands: product photography, marketplace images, ad sets, packaging

- Start-ups: brand identity from £395 + VAT, pitch decks, icons and illustrations

Manchester has plenty of design agencies, and we are not trying to be one of them.

### Can you shoot Amazon-ready product photos for a Manchester brand?

Yes. dijitul photographs products on a pure white background for marketplace main images, plus detail and lifestyle shots, edited to a consistent crop. Product photography is from £25 + VAT per image. We shoot on location at your unit or office in Manchester, with travel quoted.

### Can you design a full set of digital ad sizes from one campaign?

Yes. We design a master ad and adapt it to each placement your campaign uses, checking current platform sizes at the time of the job so text stays inside safe areas. This is priced at £45 an hour + VAT, with a fixed quote first.

### Why use a Mansfield designer rather than a Manchester agency?

You deal directly with the person doing the work, you get a fixed price before we start, and our rates avoid city centre overheads. Design happens remotely, which suits busy teams, and we still come to Manchester for photography and video.
