How to prepare photos, logos and copy

Practical rules so your materials look right on the site and don't have to be sent back.

Photographs

  • Send originals straight from the camera or phone — not resized copies.
  • Don't send photos through chat apps. Most of them shrink the image automatically and that quality can't be recovered.
  • Ideal resolution: at least 2000 px on the longer side.
  • If you have images from a professional shoot, ask the photographer for the full-resolution files, not the web versions.
  • Make sure you hold the rights to use them — images taken from the internet carry real fines.

Logo

  • A vector logo is best — files ending in .svg, .ai, .eps or .pdf. They scale to any size with no loss of quality.
  • If you only have an image, we need a .png with a transparent background, as large as possible.
  • Send both a light and a dark version if they exist — the site has both dark and light areas.
  • A logo photographed off a business card or cut out of an old website won't do. If that's all you have, tell us — we can redraw it.

Copy

  • Send it as a document or spreadsheet, not as images or screenshots.
  • Write the way you'd say it to a customer in person. Stiff, formal language usually hurts on a website.
  • A few sentences per service is enough — what it is, who it's for, what the customer gets out of it.
  • It doesn't have to be perfect. We'll go through the copy together and refine it.
Send materials via a shared folder or a large-file service. Email attachments have size limits and bigger bundles won't get through.

Stuck somewhere?

You don't have to figure this out alone. Write to us and we'll walk through it together — or simply do it for you.
