Picture this: You've just finished bottling your latest vintage, and your distributor needs product shots by tomorrow morning. Your e-commerce site is missing images for three SKUs, and your sales team keeps asking for updated bottle photography. Sound familiar?

If you're like most small winery owners, you know that stunning visuals sell wine. But you also know that not every image requires a full-scale campaign treatment. Sometimes you just need clean, professional bottle shots that showcase your wines without breaking the bank or waiting weeks for delivery.

That's exactly why we created Outshinery Lite: the streamlined photography solution that delivers professional wine bottle imagery in under an hour for just $29 per image.

The reality of running a small winery in today's market

Overcoming the challenges

As a small winery owner, you're juggling countless responsibilities. You're managing vineyard operations, overseeing production, handling distribution, and somehow finding time to market your wines effectively. Visual content has become essential for success, especially when over 80% of consumers report doing some online research before buying a beverage, more than any other shopping channel. (IWSR, 2024)

Why high-quality imagery matters

Your customers expect to see your wines before they buy them. Whether they're browsing your website, checking out your products on a retail platform, or reviewing your sales materials, high-quality imagery directly impacts their purchasing decisions. Yet commissioning custom photography for every single SKU can quickly become prohibitively expensive and time-consuming.

A solution tailored to wineries

We've heard this challenge countless times from wineries like yours. You need professional product photography that's both affordable and fast: photography that maintains consistency across your entire portfolio without requiring a major investment for each bottle.

Outshinery Lite allows 18,000 bottle configurations with bottle shape, glass color, iquid shade, closures, etc.
With Outshinery Lite, you can create over 18,000 unique bottle combinations! Currently available in 750ml formats, with more options on the way.

Introducing Outshinery Lite: professional photography made simple

Outshinery Lite is our answer to your everyday photography needs. While our Studio service continues to deliver premium, storytelling visuals for major campaigns and launches, Lite focuses on what you need most: clean, consistent, professional bottle shots that keep your business running smoothly.

Here's what makes Outshinery Lite different:

Lightning-fast delivery

Your images are ready in under an hour, not days or weeks. Submit your bottle specifications, and you'll have professional photography faster than you can finish your morning tasting room setup. This speed means you can respond to urgent requests from distributors, update your website immediately after bottling, or provide sales materials without delay.

Transparent, affordable pricing

At $29 per image, Lite offers predictable costs that fit your budget. No hidden fees, no minimum orders, no complex pricing tiers. You know exactly what you'll pay, making it easy to plan your marketing expenses and justify the investment.

Consistent professional quality

Every Lite image maintains the same professional standards you'd expect from a traditional photography shoot. Clean backgrounds, perfect lighting, accurate color representation: all delivered digitally without the logistical challenges of physical photography.

Perfect E-commerce readiness

Lite images are specifically designed for e-commerce platforms, sales sheets, and marketing materials. They meet technical requirements for online retail while maintaining the visual appeal that drives purchases.

How Outshinery Lite solves your daily sales and marketing challenges

Challenge 1: Urgent distributor requests

Your distributor calls Monday morning requesting product images for a new listing opportunity. With traditional photography, you'd need to schedule a shoot, wait for delivery, and hope the timing works out. With Lite, you submit your request and have professional images ready before your next meeting.

Challenge 2: Incomplete product catalogs

You've launched three new varietals, but your website still shows placeholder images. Visitors see "image coming soon" instead of your beautiful bottles. Lite eliminates this gap by providing immediate access to professional imagery for every SKU.

Challenge 3: Inconsistent visual branding

Your older wines have photos from different photographers with varying styles, creating a disjointed brand experience. Lite ensures every bottle in your portfolio maintains consistent lighting, angles, and presentation standards.

Challenge 4: Budget constraints for visual content

Custom photography shoots can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars, making it difficult to justify images for smaller production wines or seasonal releases. At $29 per image, Lite makes professional photography accessible for every bottle in your lineup.

The perfect partnership: Studio + Lite = Complete Coverage

Outshinery Lite isn't designed to replace our Studio service: it's designed to complement it perfectly. Think of Studio as your premium campaign tool and Lite as your reliable workhorse.

Use Studio for:

  • Major vintage releases and limited editions
  • Award-winning wines that deserve storytelling imagery
  • Marketing campaigns requiring lifestyle and contextual shots
  • Brand photography that showcases your winery's personality
  • High-impact visuals for special events and promotions

Use Lite for:

  • Everyday e-commerce needs across your entire portfolio
  • Quick updates when you change bottle designs or labels
  • Sales sheet imagery for distributor presentations
  • Inventory management and catalog maintenance
  • Rapid response to retailer image requirements

This combination ensures every bottle in your portfolio has the visual representation it deserves, whether it's destined for a premium campaign or simply needs professional documentation for daily sales activities.
