Prepping For A Personal Brand Photoshoot

So you may be wondering how you can begin prepping for a personal brand photoshoot and why this is important for your business. As a business owner, you are the face of your own brand. Meaning that people want to connect with people, not just the company itself. Instead of selling a product or a service, you’re actually selling yourself and the experience people have when working with you. Your branding photos should be a representation of that experience.

If you want to attract your ideal clients, you need better headshots then on your iphone. Your website is definitely not the the only place to use these personal brand photos. You can use them on social media, business cards, or at events. These photos should elevate your brand and speak to your true authentic self.

Ready to book your personal brand shoot? Hold on, there is a bit more to know.

It is imperative to know the vision of what your brand is about. Working through brand strategy sessions prior to your shoot is super important. Our branding sessions include:

Strategy

We encourage you to use Pinterest to gather your inspiration. We want to capture your vibe and create with authenticity. When pinning on Pinterest, look for colors and textures- not just photography poses. We want to capture the overall vision & visuals you have for your business.

CHOOSING YOUR PROPS AND WARDROBE WHEN PREPPING FOR A PERSONAL BRAND PHOTOSHOOT

Incorporate your branding colors into the shoot when prepping for a personal brand photoshoot. We believe that less is more, but we also want you to consider silhouette. Don’t worry if you can’t think of what to wear. In our initial consult, we will go over the styling and props. It is most important to choose outfits and accessories that make you feel confident and are on-brand. Confidence is key in headshots. We recommend that you invest in a blowout or a professional makeup

For props, find things that you do actually use in your daily work environment too! If you’re a photographer, It would probably be a good idea to bring your camera or any essential accessories. Neutral props usually work best.

We want you to have fun, shine bright and show the real authentic YOU!
