Why Imagica is different
One of the main reasons clients tell us we are different than many commercial photographers is that we have a core expertise in marketing so we know how important compelling and unique images are to your business. You wont’ find a lot of cookie cutter images, you can do that yourself. Your images will be as unique as your business and reflect your value proposition.
We follow direction really well since we are art directors too. We’ll never “over shoot” for the job or let our egos get in the way so you won’t pay more than what you need to get the job done.
Our goal is to get you the shots you need as efficiently and economically as possible. And finally, your images are delivered with absolutely no strings attached. That’s right, no licensing agreements or special terms of use that you have to worry about down the road.

Here is a quick look at some recent photo projects. World events have kept us a little closer to home of late than we are use to, but has not stopped us from capturing great moments for groups and business…
About the photographer
Perry Johnson
Photographer, Graphic Designer, Marketing Strategist
Perry Johnson honed his photography and design skills at L’Ecole des Beaux Arts in Toulouse, France. He has worked as a commercial photographer and graphic designer for over over 30 years as both a freelancer and within the structure of major marketing agencies.
As a Platinum Member of Nikon Professional Services, Perry was a recipient of one of Nikon’s very first digital cameras (Nikon D #311) but had to convince clients including Food & Wine Magazine, Target, American Express Financial Services and others to accept images captured in a digital format. A task that took many companies years to accept.
Perry strongly feels his experience using both his own images and those of others as a marketing tool gives him a unique perspective on the power of photography. Over the course of his career he has developed unique opinions on what makes a compelling image and how those elements have and will change over the course of time.

Kind Words
We are always up for a cudos or two, many thanks to all the great business Imagica has the honor to work with…
Imagica has worked with University Park Country Club for two decades providing excellent photography, design, pr and marketing support for our golf club, restaurant and weddings. They are very accessible and have provided in-house staff with training and tools to handle some the the tasks ourselves, that’s rare in an agency.
“I’ve never seen anybody work so fast. We were fooling ourselves thinking we could save money by doing this in-house… crazy good files for our Amazon store and website”. Perry also showed us how we could shoot some of the product ourselves if needed.
Great eye. Perry has been capturing unique images for all of our restaurants from the time we opened Libby’s Restaurant + Bar. Having great visuals makes or breaks your business. He simply needs no supervision or direction as he is a food pro with tons of experience.
Perry always seems to get the shots no matter what the conditions. We demand a lot but he never complains and always delivers. We usually get way more than what we expect. He gives us great feedback on our requests and surprises us all the time with options we never thought of for our initiatives.
