Image agency NordicPhotos
with offices in Stockholm, Reykjavik and Oslo is renewing itself this
winter. New web site with a whole new look, containing a lot of
extended services, among other things 24 hour download accounts and
assignment services. All incorporated in the new graphic profile
designed by the multiple awarded graphic designer Igor Kazakoff.
Igor Kazakoff is also designing the company's DM advertising and print.
Through series of acquisitions NordicPhotos has established itself as
one of the leading image agencies in the Nordic countries. With the
latest acquisition of the Norwegian agency GV-Press based in Oslo, the
Norwegian market is opening up. GV-Press office is the NordicPhotos
Norwegian branch. The service for the Danish clients has also been
improved with a recently established cooperation with a call centre
based in Copenhagen. NordicPhotos new web site is now available in five
languages; English, Swedish, Norwegian, Icelandic and Danish.
The new web site is divided in seven different sections to serve each client group better. The different sections are:
- Creative+ - A gallery with 15.000 hand selected images with
artistic values. This is for the creative's that do not want to search
through multiple pages of results; this will be the boutique within
NordicPhotos.
- Rights Managed - The familiar
way of using the right images for a fair price, this section includes 8
different Nordic collections along with 30 foreign collections.
- Editorial
- for those looking for specific, unique images, close to 2 million
images, anything from famous people, celebrities, art and historical
events. Many new collections added such as Mary Evans and Album.
- Features - new for the publishers - stories and images sold together.
- Royalty
Free - Introducing a number of new brands including Fancy, Moodboard
and many more and of course our very own Simply North, a Nordic RF
collection.
- CD's - categorized collections of RF images on CD's - Here you can easily search, choose and buy thousands of CD's and VCD's.
- Assignments - Our new Photographer agency Nordic Photographers. We do any photoshoot requested.
"We wanted to create a site that all different clients groups like.
Some designers don't like getting hundreds of pages of results so we
created Creative+ a section where we have edited the results for them
and then you have editors and book publishers who are looking for all
sorts of topics and want variety, for them we will have millions of
images to choose from and many different ways also for them to filter
their searches. Simplicity and nice design is also on of the key
factors in making this site, we really hope our clients will like it."
- Arnaldur Gauti Johnson, Managing Director.
