Best Med Spa Photographers and Videographers (2026): 8 Compared

For med spas. Updated October 2, 2026 · Prepared by Prospyr. Prospyr makes practice software, not photos or video, and none of the companies below is a Prospyr product. Each summary reflects what the company publishes on its own website, checked October 2026. Day rates, travel costs and usage rights change, so confirm everything in writing before you book a shoot.

What does a med spa photographer or videographer do?

A med spa photographer or videographer creates the original images and video your website, social accounts and ads run on: provider headshots, treatment room and team photos, short treatment and testimonial videos, and brand films. The good ones plan a shot list around your services, work around a booked schedule, and deliver files sized for each channel. The choices that matter are whether you need an aesthetic specialist or a general crew, whether they travel to you, how usage rights work, and how patients who appear on camera give permission.

The 8 med spa photo and video providers at a glance

How we chose this list

We started with production teams that name med spas, plastic surgery or aesthetic practices on their own websites, then added a few general providers that fill gaps specialists don't: licensed animation and on-demand crews in many cities. We checked four things a practice manager can confirm before booking:

• Aesthetic experience. Does the company show med spa or aesthetic surgery work?
• Published terms. Does it list a day rate, subscription price or what a shoot includes?
• Logistics. Does it travel to you and work around booked appointments?
• Usage. Does it say how the files can be used across your site, social and ads?

The order is our editorial view, not a measure of results. If you mostly need creator-style social content rather than a planned shoot, see our UGC and TikTok agencies list and influencer marketing agencies list.

1. Etna Interactive (Spotlight Photo+Video)

Etna Interactive, a marketing agency for aesthetic medicine, sells Spotlight as a stand-alone on-site photo and video product for plastic surgery, facial plastic surgery, med spa, dermatology and ophthalmology practices.

What stands out:

• Published price. Spotlight starts at $5,700 for the day, plus transportation, lodging and meal allowance for two.
• Defined crew and output. A two-person production team captures hundreds of photos and video clips of your team, patients and facility.
• Planning included. Etna builds the shot list from your goals, handles scheduling, and coaches your team on being on camera.
• Built to keep the practice running. It states that it organizes the day to limit disruption to your schedule.

Right for: a med spa that wants a full library of original images in one day from a team that already knows aesthetic practices. Ask: how many final edited photos and video cuts you receive, who owns them, and whether you must also buy Etna's marketing services.

2. Studio III (S3 Media)

Studio III runs an in-house production team, S3 Media, that plans, shoots and edits brand videos, testimonials, service highlight videos, 15-, 30- and 60-second commercial spots, and website photography. It states that the team travels anywhere in the United States and handles permits, locations and logistics in-house.

What stands out:

• Aesthetic case studies with counts. It reports 2,082 photos and 17 custom videos for Ciaravino Total Beauty, and 949 photos for Dr. Garth Fisher.
• Scale. Studio III reports 200+ staff across Los Angeles, Austin and Tampa.
• Broad formats, including 3D animation and AI-generated content.

Right for: larger or multi-location practices that want brand films and commercial spots, not just website photos. Ask: whether production can be bought without a marketing retainer, and what a single shoot day costs.

3. Plastic Surgery Studios

Plastic Surgery Studios in Rancho Cucamonga, California offers custom photography and videography for plastic surgery and med spa practices, focused on "showcasing you, your facility, and your team." It positions the work as an alternative to stock photos, for use on websites, social media, ads and print. The agency reports more than 20 years serving surgical and aesthetic practices.

Right for: practices planning a new website that want the photos and the site from one team (see our med spa website designers list). Ask: whether it travels outside Southern California, the cost of a shoot on its own, and how many edited images are delivered.

4. Influx Marketing

Influx Marketing offers photo and video production for aesthetic and medical practices, including plastic surgery, med spas, dermatology, hair restoration and weight loss, from offices in Pasadena, Salt Lake City and Tampa. It covers concept, production and post-production, states that it takes on projects regardless of location, and favors original imagery over stock or AI-generated images.

Right for: practices that want visuals that match a design-led brand and website. Ask: travel costs for your location and whether production is sold separately from its marketing services.

5. Lifted Logic

Lifted Logic is a web design and marketing agency in Overland Park, Kansas with an in-house photo studio. It shoots headshots, office and service photography, interview and testimonial videos, demonstration videos, commercials and drone footage, all in RAW 4K, and states that it comes to your location and that businesses "almost never have to close" during a shoot. It travels nationally. Its Pearlman Aesthetic Surgery case study pairs photo and video with a website redesign.

Right for: practices that want testimonial and service videos plus a polished site. Ask: what its cost calculator shows for one shoot day with editing, and how it handles patients who appear on camera.

6. Understand.com

Understand.com in Plano, Texas licenses medical animations rather than filming your practice. Its plastic surgery library lists 50+ animations, including non-surgical treatments such as botulinum toxin, hyaluronic acid fillers, chemical peels, laser hair removal and laser skin rejuvenation, with social media versions for Facebook, TikTok and Instagram.

What stands out: a published price of $2,350 a year for the standard subscription (it lists a 15% discount for ASPS members), captions and transcripts in five languages, and a statement that it is the only patient education provider endorsed by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Right for: explaining treatments clearly without filming patients. Ask: whether it offers a smaller library for a non-surgical med spa.

7. Lemonlight

Lemonlight is a video production company founded in 2014 that reports 4,500+ customers, 50,000+ videos and 2,000+ crew members covering 80+ cities. Its healthcare page lists about-us videos, video ads and testimonial videos, with health systems such as UCLA Health and Emory Healthcare among its customers. It is not an aesthetic specialist, and its healthcare page does not address patient privacy.

Right for: a practice that wants a professional crew in its own city for a brand or testimonial video. Ask: for its predetermined package prices and how it handles patient releases.

8. Snappr

Snappr is an on-demand photography and videography platform. You book an on-site session online, a matched photographer comes to your location, and edited portraits are delivered in the app "within days." It can standardize headshots across several offices and cities. It does not have a healthcare or aesthetic program, and pricing is shown only as pay as you go, Pro and Enterprise tiers.

Right for: quick, consistent provider and team headshots, especially for multi-location groups. Ask: the per-session price for your city and whether you can request a photographer with healthcare or beauty work.

Questions to ask any med spa photographer or videographer

1. Who owns the files, and what usage is licensed? Get in writing that you can use the images on your site, social, ads and print with no time limit.
2. How are patients on camera handled? Anyone recognizable needs signed permission. Ask your attorney whether a HIPAA authorization is also needed, and keep the signed forms on file.
3. Can you shoot without closing the practice? Ask how the crew works around booked appointments and treatment rooms.
4. What exactly is delivered? Count edited photos, video cuts, lengths and formats (vertical for social, horizontal for web).
5. Who writes claims in video scripts and captions? Your provider or medical director should approve any statement about results. Our advertising compliance reviewers list covers outside review.
6. Are travel, lodging and editing extra? Day rates often exclude them.

Where Prospyr fits

Marketing shoots and clinical photos are different jobs. Brand images go to your website and social accounts; clinical before-and-after photos belong in the patient's record, taken with consistent lighting and positioning. For the clinical side, see our before-and-after photo editing services list and photo rules for med spa social posts, and Prospyr's media archive for keeping patient photos with the chart. To see how it works in practice, book a practice demo.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a med spa photo or video shoot cost?

Published prices are rare. Etna Interactive's Spotlight starts at $5,700 for a day plus travel for a two-person crew, and Understand.com's licensed animation library costs $2,350 a year. Most others quote by scope, so ask for the day rate, editing and travel as separate lines.

Do I need a photographer who specializes in med spas?

Not always. A specialist knows how to show treatment rooms, devices and providers without looking clinical or breaking advertising rules, which matters for a full brand shoot. For headshots or a single testimonial, a skilled general crew is often enough if you supply the shot list.

Can I use patients in marketing photos and videos?

Yes, with their signed written permission before the shoot, kept on file. Patient images and stories can count as protected health information, so ask your healthcare attorney what your consent form must cover.

How often should a med spa reshoot its photos?

Plan a new shoot when your team, space or treatment menu changes noticeably, often every one to two years. Outdated provider photos and rooms that no longer look the same create a mismatch when patients arrive.
