You are the face of your brand!
Let’s create gorgeous & bespoke images that allow you to stand out, share your personality and invite engagement.
We all know the importance of showing up, being visible online to allow our audience to really get to know us. Together, we create a gallery of images that showcase you, your personality and your business.
Personal branding photography allows you to say how great you and your business are with unique and compelling imagery. As small businesses (or any business), its absolutely essential we show up to our ideal client so they can gain a sense of who are are and how we work.
A personal branding session allows you to create exactly that - images that captivate and allow you to tell your story.
And, just imagine, how much easier it will be for you to appear on social media with a bank of images at hand allowing you to talk about you and your business.
Sometimes the thought of organising a shoot and being in front of the camera can seem overwhelming, and I’m here to hold your hand throughout the process, from guiding you through images that will work for you to making you feel great in front of the camera.
So, step out, and put your best face forward….
So, how does it all work?
1. Get in touch for a Discovery Call
It’s sometimes difficult to know where to get started with organising a Brand Shoot so in the first instance I send out my Welcome Guide - this covers the process, the packages and an overview of working with me.
If you like what you hear, we have 20 minute Discovery Call and gives you the opportunity for you to ask any questions and address any concerns you may have.
If I’m the right photographer for you, and this is the right time for you, then we can take it to the next stage.
2. Choose your package
Now is the time to choose the package that best fits your needs.
The Welcome Guide provides details on what is included in each package - every session includes a detailed Preparation Guide.
Once you’ve chosen your package, I’ll ask you to fill in a questionnaire so I can get a better understanding of you, your business and your brand.
3. Plan your shoot with me
The magic in a photoshoot comes from the planning that takes place before I’ve even picked up my camera.
It’s really important to share key details via the questionnaire and from here we build a shoot plan - this ensures that every image serves a purpose and its a chance to think about all the props we may need as well as ensuring the location is on point.
As well as sending you a detailed Preparation Guide, I also send you a Getting Camera Ready Guide to help keep those nerves at bay. Longer shoots also receive a couple of video tutorials so you can feel comfortable in front of the camera on the day.
4. Your shoot!
It really matters to me, my clients enjoy their shoot!
The key to this is being prepared (see 3.) and I do everything I can to provide a relaxed, fun atmosphere. Most shoots involve a walk, perhaps a stop at a coffee shop/ restaurant and perhaps your workspace. Rather than specifically pose you, I provide some light direction on how I want you to stand or sit or use your phone and then snap away - while making the most of our surroundings and the light.
We’re usually chatting away by this time and it doesn’t necessarily feel like a photoshoot.
5. Your images
Within a fortnight, you will receive your images from which to make your selections. You’ll have several days in which to choose your images and I do provide guidance on choosing your images, depending on which package you have selected.
Once you’ve selected your images, they will be fully edited and ready for to use.
So, if you like what you see, drop me a line to for the Brand Welcome Guide or to arrange a Discovery Call.

Common questions that may help in deciding….
-
Have a look at the images on my website and social media, if you like what you see, let us arrange a 20 minute Discovery Call. This gives me the chance to find out more about you and your business and for you to find out more and off course, if we are a good fit.
-
There are several packages to choose from and if this doesn’t suit your needs, we can then create a bespoke package for you.
Each session includes a phone/zoom consultation, a questionnaire for you to fill in to tell me as much about you and your business so I can understand what you are trying to convey. I provide you with a detailed shoot list to guide our session.
I also send you a detailed preparation guide (what to wear what to bring, ideas for locations and so on) as well as tips on ensuring you are relaxed and feeling good about your shoot. Images are then made available to you via a secure online gallery, for you to select. Please note that I do provide a range of editing options so you can select what suits your brand.
-
The vast majority of us do!
It’s as simple as that and I completely understand. Don’t let your nerves stop you from levelling up your social media images and really conveying what you and your business bring to your clients.
I am happy to talk through any specific concerns you may have. You receive my Getting Camera Ready Guide that provides tips and tricks to feel more relaxed and confident in front of the camera.
Many clients walk away from the session feeling really good about themselves and in many case, it can be very empowering.
-
We have a consultation beforehand and we discuss what you want to cover in your shoot.
Based on this, you will know what you need in terms of props, where we will shoot and, off course, what to wear. We will also discuss hair and make up.
-
Thats what I’m there for.
You are gently guided through poses that suit your profession, reflect your personality and in line with your requirements.
It’s helpful to let me know during our consultation if there is anything specific that bothers you.
-
For the headshot session, we can go from booking to shoot within a few days, based on availability.
For longer shoots, it is advisable to leave at last 4-6 weeks. This gives us plenty of time to plan your shoot and ensure that you are fully ready for it.
-
The standard time frame is 2 weeks.
You can view a gallery of images from which to make your selections.
If you select a smaller package, then the images can be turned around relatively quickly.
If you need your images urgently, please do let know in advance and it may be possible to get them to you earlier.
-
This provides both of us with the minimum images we wish to create and helps ensure we capture images that tell your story.
During the shoot, we will add to the variety of images already decided and simply play along with the props we have and our surroundings.
The shoot list is great to refer back to when deciding what images to select.
-
Yes, they are.
All images are individually edited.
All images are gently enhanced, so things like wrinkles and blemishes are minimised but not removed.
It matters to me that your images are a genuine reflection of you.
-
You choose your package based on how many images you want. This can vary with where you are on your business journey and sometimes you may just need some images for a launch or special event.
You are welcome to buy more images if you wish. Please note that the images are kept for up to 18 months so it is possible to come back to me if you wish to have more images from a specific shoot.
