Specialty Wood Products, Inc. (SWP) is a company that specializes in manufacturing high-quality wood siding products. With the rise of online shopping, SWP faced the challenge of showcasing their product line, including their New Age Siding Line, which includes New Age Rustic and New Age Modern products, in a way that accurately represented their true colors and textures to potential customers.

Specialty Wood Products, Inc. (SWP) faced a challenge common to many wood siding manufacturers: how to accurately showcase their products' true colors and textures online. They knew that potential customers often struggled to visualize what a product would look like in real life when they saw it on the internet, and this made it difficult for them to feel confident in their purchase decisions.

SWP needed a visual experience that would help customers see their products' unique qualities and make informed decisions. That's when they turned to TJ, an experienced commercial photographer who specializes in capturing the essence of products and bringing them to life in a way that truly represents their unique qualities.

TJ's solution was to create a series of true-to-life images showcasing SWP's New Age Siding Line, which includes New Age Rustic and New Age Modern products. He used his architectural photography skills and a custom-built wood siding mount to adjust the siding to a consistent angle and shoot the product showing three different angles. He took great care to ensure the colors, textures, and grain patterns were just right before he even took the first shot.

After the shoot, TJ compiled four high-resolution images using Pixelshift technology to get the finest details of the wood. The final product was a set of images that truly represented the unique qualities of the New Age Siding Line, including its colors, textures, and grain patterns.

The results of TJ's work were true-to-life images that helped solve the challenge of consumers not being able to see what they are buying online. SWP was thrilled with the final product, as it helped build trust with their customers and gave them the confidence they needed to make a purchase decision. By partnering with TJ, SWP was able to create a visual experience that truly represented their New Age Siding Line and their commitment to quality.

The New Age Siding Line is a testament to SWP's commitment to using quality materials in their products. They start with beautiful and durable Select Tight Knot Western Red Cedar in their Rustic series and Thermally Modified Clear Vertical Grain Hemlock for the Modern series. Each piece has a wire brushed texture applied to give it even more character and to aid with finish adhesion. SWP then pre-finishes the siding in one of 12 colors chosen specifically for the beauty and versatility sought after in today’s design trends.

With the help of TJ's photography skills, SWP was able to showcase their New Age Siding Line in a way that accurately represented its true colors and textures online. This helped potential customers feel more confident in their purchase decisions and allowed SWP to build trust with their customers.
