OMS x Doner

OMS PHOTOGRAPHY × DONER

A Seasoned Midwest Studio, On Call for Doner.

A full-service photo, video, and retouching studio four hours down I-75 from Southfield - built to take overflow and specialty production off your plate without touching your creative or your client relationships.

Your studios are busy. Ours are ready.

We know Doner/Colle already runs a kick-ass integrated production operation in-house, so we're not pitching a replacement. We're pitching a bench. Say a motion-controlled pour series, a QSR menu refresh, a massive or meticulously detailed retouching job, and a retail eCommerce drop all land in the same month. OMS gives your team another fully staffed studio to route that work to.

We're built for both ends of the job. For scale, we run multiple sets at once, push high-volume eCommerce through a streamlined capture-to-delivery workflow, and staff a retouching team that keeps pace with national retail calendars. For specialty, our motion-control rigs, high-speed splash setups, 360 product capture, and in-house food stylists handle the shots where precision matters most. Volume and detail, under one roof.

Built to plug into an agency workflow.

Your creative, our execution

We shoot to your boards, your art direction, and your client's brand standards. Doner stays the face of the work.

Overflow without the hiring

Flex up for a heavy quarter or a surprise new-business win without adding headcount or booking freelancers one by one.

Specialty sets on hand

Splash and pour rigs, high-speed liquid capture, tabletop motion, and 360 product are permanent fixtures, not rentals.

Food styling in-house

Hero burgers, soft serve that holds, dairy that pours on cue. Our stylists work in food and beverage every week.

Retouching under one roof

Our retouchers sit next to our photographers, so feedback loops are hours, not days, and files arrive ready for every channel.

Midwest rates, national quality

Coastal-caliber production with a Midwest cost structure - more of your clients' budgets lands on screen.

From brief to final files in five steps.

Step 1

Brief & bid

Send boards or a shot list. We return a line-item estimate, usually within 48 hours.

Step 2

Pre-production

Casting, props, food sourcing, and set builds — confirmed with your producer in one call sheet.

Step 3

Shoot

On set in Cincinnati or Golden, or streamed live so your team and client approve frames in real time.

Step 4

Retouch & edit

In-house retouching and video post, with rounds of revisions built into the estimate.

Step 5

Deliver

Final files sized and named to your spec, ready for your DAM, media team, or client.


Stills and motion from the same set.

Most of our food and beverage days now capture both. A pour gets shot as a hero still, a slow-motion clip, and a six-second social cut before the set is struck - so your clients get a full content kit from a single production budget.

Tabletop motion, high-speed liquid, behind-the-scenes, and drone are all handled by our own crew and edited in-house.


Working together.

Will OMS ever contact our clients directly?

Only if you want us to. On agency jobs we work through your producers and creative leads, and we're happy to work under NDA or unbranded on set.

Can you shoot to our art direction?

Yes - that's how most agency jobs run. Bring your own art director and photographer if you like, or lean on ours; we'll staff around whatever your team brings.

How fast can you turn a job around?

Simple tabletop and eCommerce work can often be booked within the week. Larger productions with casting or set builds typically need two to three weeks of pre-production.

Do you only work in Cincinnati?

No. We have studios in Cincinnati and Golden, Colorado, travel crews nationally for location work, and run remote-approval shoots for teams that can't be on set.

What does a first project look like?

Many agency partners start with a single overflow job — a product series or a menu refresh — so your producers can see how we work before routing larger productions our way.
