Capturing great content isn't always easy, especially the toll soil takes on camera gear, but when you love what you do, it's worth waking up early before all the action starts to get the perfect shot. At Salvo Image, we love showcasing the hard work our farmers and ranchers do in this great state and beyond.

SHOWCASING HARD WORK IS WHAT WE DO.

Stanford Sierra Youth & Families

Stanford Sierra Youth & Families has had the pleasure to work with Salvo Image on several projects, and it has always been a fun, easy, and stress-free process. Their production company has created marketing and training videos to help us spread awareness around the needs of youth in foster care in our community. They took the time to meet with us, hear our needs, and fully execute on our vision in a timely manner. We love their work! Not only did they create excellent and compelling videos for us, they really took the time to become knowledgeable about our organization and the youth and families we serve. Moreover, they acted as true partners, were responsive, and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Salvo Image for your videography needs!

You're paying for "the perfect shot," right? What is the perfect shot? We think it is the most beautiful light, that portrays you in the most beautiful light. If you are a senator trying to get your message across, or a dairy farmer who produces the best milk out there, we take all variables into consideration. If we are outdoors capturing machinery, agriculture, massive buildings or anything gigantic... the best times to shoot those are sunrise and sunset.

If we are indoors capturing restaurants, people, food, products or anything under 10' tall, then we bring all the gear to make it happen. Realistically though, time is money and sometimes we don't have all day to setup. That's why you're hiring Salvo Image. We understand quick setup times are crucial, and we make the best of what we have, or can make.
