What’s Included in a Branding Shoot

Every branding session is tailored to your business. A typical session can include:

  • Professional headshots and team portraits

  • Environmental portraits in your workspace

  • Candid behind-the-scenes shots of your work and process

  • Lifestyle images showing real interactions with your product or service

  • Detail shots: tools, signage, brand elements, products

You’ll walk away with a library of versatile images that you can use across your marketing channels.

Our Branding Photography Process

1. Initial Consultation

We begin with a complimentary consultation to understand your brand's essence, goals, and the message you wish to convey through imagery. This conversation allows us to align on your vision and discuss how photography can authentically represent your business.

2. Planning Session

Following our initial discussion, we delve into the specifics of your photoshoot. We'll select suitable locations, plan outfits, and outline the desired outcomes. This collaborative planning ensures that every detail aligns with your brand identity and objectives.

3. Photography Session

On the day of the shoot, we execute the plan we've crafted together. My aim is to create a comfortable environment where your authentic self shines through, resulting in images that genuinely reflect your brand's story.

4. Image Selection

After the session, you'll receive a curated gallery of proofs via our portfolio page. This allows you to review and select the images that best capture your brand's personality and message. Your selections will then be professionally edited to ensure they meet the highest quality standards.

5. Final Delivery

Once editing is complete, you'll receive the final high-resolution images, ready for use across your website, social media, and marketing materials. These visuals will serve as powerful tools to connect with your audience and elevate your brand presence.
