Photography & Video Built for Marketing
Great content should do more than fill a camera roll.
First Degree Media creates photography and video around how the work will actually be used, from paid campaigns and websites to product launches, social media, email, and brand storytelling.
Based in Bozeman, Montana. Available for projects throughout the Mountain West and beyond.
Creative With A Job To Do
Every shoot starts with a question:
What does the business actually need this content to accomplish?
That could mean stopping someone mid-scroll, showing what an experience feels like, making a product easier to understand, or giving a campaign enough creative to run for months.
The goal is not just to create something that looks good.
It is to create the right assets for the marketing behind it.

Why the Marketing Background Matters
I approach production differently because I have spent years working on the other side of the content.
I understand what websites need, what makes advertising creative usable, how social platforms differ, and why a campaign usually needs more than one perfect hero image.
That means we can plan the shoot around the formats and assets your marketing will actually need.
A Simple Approach
Understand the campaign, audience, platforms, and content needs.
A Simple Approach
Determine formats, concepts, locations, talent, deliverables, and usage.
A Simple Approach
Capture the photo and video assets around the plan while leaving room for real moments.
A Simple Approach
Organize the final content so it is ready to be used across the channels it was created for.
Ideal for outdoor and recreation brands, tourism businesses, resorts, ecommerce brands, products, hospitality, events, destinations, and businesses that need a stronger visual presence.
