People buy from people. 

That's why personal branding photography is so important. Photos that portray who you are and what you do build trust with your clients, your peers and your staff. 
 
Our branding photo shoot will include corporate headshots as a matter of course but they go much further than that. We may use a variety of locations to give different backdrops and context of different elements of your business. For example, we may have ‘desk based’ type photos as well as ‘out and about’ photos and I am always keen to include some form of personal touch which helps potential clients relate to you more readily. For example, a snippet of what you do in your spare time…whether that’s gardening, sky diving or knitting!

Personal branding photography 

can be used on your webstie and social media to tell your story and enhance connections. My clients often also use them on their websites, primarily on the ‘about me’ page which is one that can get lots of attention from potential clients checking out your site, as they want to know who they will be dealing with. They want to see if they would feel comfortable working with you. 
 
With the rise in use of social media such as LinkedIn, branding photos are invaluable in helping posts be more visible, underpin key messages and also gaining the attention of scrolling users!

The preparation for a personal branding photography shoot is a collaboration between us. 

Whether you make widgets or provide services, we talk about your target market, your USP and how you will use the images. In the pre shoot consultation I glean this information which helps me generate ideas and start visualising how I will create the images to underpin your brand. I also have a handy guide on how to prepare for your personal branding shoot, to give you ideas and confidence on the day of the shoot.

Personal Branding Photography FAQs  

Q: How do you create personal branding photography that represent my business? 

I will talk to you in advance of our photo shoot to get a good feel for your vision, your products or services and who your target market is. Your USP is also something I want to understand. In this way I can really visualise what I am trying to achieve, photographically, and I can be my most creative on our photography shoot. It doesn’t matter whether you are selling widgets, an accountant or a massage therapist…..I will create a set of professional photos that speak of your business. 

Q: What is personal branding photography? 

Personal branding photos show who you are, what you do and tell your brand story. A brand goes further than logos and colours. Branding photos are a collection of images that communicate your WHO - WHAT - WHY, through stand out visuals. Inspiring photographs tell your audience what your brand values are, reveals your personality and connects with them. People buy from people and it is the know, like and trust factor that a personal branding photo shoot underpins. 

Q: What does a personal branding photo shoot involve? 

Personal branding photography helps potential customers understand what you and your business are about simply by looking at the images on your website or social media platforms. I work with you to understand what drives you and gets you out of bed in the morning. Location and clothes are important to get right and we collaborate to create not just headshots, but a range of at work images and inspiring photos that tell your story.
