Orange County, California
Marketing, photography and software for businesses in Newport Beach.
Newport Beach is a harbor town with money and tourists. Fashion Island in Newport Center has about 180 stores, Marine Avenue on Balboa Island is a strip of small shops and bakeries, and Mariners Mile, Lido Marina Village and Corona del Mar each have their own row of restaurants. Newport Harbor holds around 9,000 boats, and dining here leans toward seafood.
Where we work
Around Newport Beach
Shoots at your place, meetings at your counter, and the same two people on every job.
- Fashion Island / Newport Center
- Balboa Island (Marine Avenue)
- Balboa Peninsula and Balboa Village
- Corona del Mar
- Mariners Mile
- Lido Marina Village
Newport Beach is mostly English-speaking (2020 census: 75.5% White, 9.6% Hispanic or Latino, 8.7% Asian), so bilingual work here usually means a brand that wants to reach Japanese, Korean or Spanish-speaking customers across the county, not just in town.
Typical jobs here
- Seafood menu and patio shoot for a restaurant on Mariners Mile
- Product photos and ads for a boutique at Fashion Island or Lido Marina Village
- Website and booking form for a boat charter or rental business on the Balboa Peninsula
- Custom inventory tool for a bakery on Marine Avenue
What we do
What we do for businesses in Newport Beach.
The marketing brings customers in. The software keeps them and runs the business behind the counter. One studio does both, so nothing gets lost between an agency and a developer.
