In House Photography

June 27, 2019

Did you know that Direct Workwear does a lot of our own in house photography to get the images that you see online and in our catalogs?

We’re very fortunate to have three photographers on our staff, as well as a few willing models! Each photoshoot provides us with more pictures to showcase our products and services, and we try get the highest quality shots for our customers.

Although we love our current staff models, we’re always searching for new faces! If you, or someone you know would be willing to volunteer their time, please contact us! You might just get some free workwear out of the deal…

Stay Current

We will only email Daily Workwear articles.
