Ongoing video production for Lakeway businesses.
A video retainer is a scheduled, ongoing production arrangement — instead of scrambling to put together a shoot every time you need content, you have a crew that knows your business, your brand, and what you need before they show up.
Hen's Bread Productions serves Lakeway and the Lake Travis area from our Austin studio. No subcontractors, no rotating freelancers — the same crew every time, building on what we've already learned about your business. Retainers start with a 3-month commitment, then roll month to month.

based Serving Lakeway
Most businesses need content on a recurring basis — monthly, quarterly, or tied to specific events and seasons. The problem with one-off shoots is that every time you book one, you're starting over. New crew, new onboarding, new explanations of what your brand sounds like and who your audience is.
A retainer fixes that. We learn your business once — your people, your locations, your tone, your goals — and every subsequent shoot builds on that foundation. The first shoot takes the most time. By the third or fourth, we're showing up and executing without friction.
For Lakeway businesses — real estate firms, medical practices, restaurants, local services — consistent video content is one of the highest-ROI marketing investments available. A retainer makes that consistency affordable and operationally simple.
The right question isn't "do I need a video retainer." It's "how often do I need content, and what's it costing me to not have it consistently." Most businesses that come to us for a retainer arrangement have already tried the one-off approach and found it too slow, too expensive, or too inconsistent.
We start with a 3-month commitment — enough time to build a real content rhythm and see results. After that, it rolls month to month. We agree on a cadence and plan each shoot around what your business needs in that window.
Retainer pricing is built around what you actually need — crew size, shoot frequency, deliverable count, and whether post-production is included. See our standard rates as a starting point, then we customize from there.
On-location shoots at your Lakeway business, event space, or anywhere else relevant to your content goals. Half-day or full-day depending on scope.
Many retainer clients shoot photo and video in the same session — one crew, one day, two content formats. Efficient and consistent.
In-house edit team handles color grading, audio mix, and delivery. Post-production is a separate line item — $500 per finished minute.
Vertical reels, square cuts, and short-form clips cut from the same session footage. Add-on at $350 per set.
FAA Part 107 licensed drone coverage available for Lakeway shoots. Lake Travis and Hill Country locations are strong drone candidates.
Retainer clients get scheduled delivery timelines — you know when to expect your content before we even start. No chasing, no guessing.
Lakeway is a 30-minute drive from our Congress Avenue studio. We service the Lake Travis corridor regularly — no travel fees for Lakeway shoots, no minimum distance charges. You're in our standard service area.
The Lake Travis area has a specific character that translates well on camera — the water, the Hill Country backdrop, the mix of established local businesses and newer development. If you're a Lakeway business trying to build a content presence that looks like where you actually are, we know what that looks like and how to capture it.
Medical and dental practices, real estate teams, restaurants and food businesses, local service companies, fitness studios, and any Lakeway business that needs content on a regular basis without the overhead of managing a production crew themselves.
Video production, photography, drone, and livestream all available in the Lakeway area as standalone or retainer services.
