You might be thinking that your beautiful neighborhood park is a fantastic spot for your family session. I mean it’s huge, beautiful and right down the street. Convenient, easy and beautiful, sounds like an ideal location right?!?

Well, maybe not.

Here are a few things to to consider when trying to find a location for your family session.

When planning out a lifestyle branding session, not only do I help plan your outfits and shot list, but we create a plan for the stories that we need to capture to show your brand story. 

We used that goal to create a plan for 4 stories to capture, along with images of her new facial treatment space, and headshots. You might know by now, but I love to up the headshot game and get the details, process and the ‘why’ behind you and your brand.

o have a branding session soon, but don’t know here to begin with what poses you should do?! Not to fear, these 5 poses are the tried and true for branding sessions – and we add on from here depending on your niche and needs!

his Mother’s Day, let’s get Mom in the pictures of those memories and good times. Sign up for one of our mommy and me family minis and give Mom the gift of joy through one of our sessions that she will look back on and remember this wonderful stage of motherhood (no matter how old the kiddos are)!

I loved capturing this senior mini session! This time on time on the beach, featuring waves good enough for a surfer. Seniors may not entirely care about getting senior pictures taken at the time, but they will when they are looking back – and they are SO special for the parents to document this moment.

My Top Suggestions for Branding Session Locations, If Your Home or Office Isn’t the Right Fit

Worried your home office won’t produce your dream-like images to match your brand? Not to fear, that is more often the case than not and I have some alternate locations ideas!

It is especially fun to work with new companies – those that are just starting out, creating their websites and social accounts, and together we get to create the story for their brand, in this case, The Money Class.

As much as I encourage to book before baby is due with our ‘floating date based on delivery’ to ensure that we capture your newborn, sometimes things happen and that isn’t always possible. And that’s ok!!! Reach out and we can talk about booking your newborn asap, like we did with this adorable 4 week old baby! Click here to inquire!

One of the questions I am asked the most often prior to a branding session is “What do I wear!?!”.

Not to fear, I am here to support and guide you so that we can show off your brand and connect with your ideal clients. What you wear communicates a lot about your brand and your personality!

1 year sessions are one of my favorites to capture. Still a little baby, but with so much personality and curiosity as they learn to live in this world and grow.

They interact with props are show you what they like and don’t like, and it is so fun to see how Mom and Dad react too!

How crazy that at the time, the only way you could see a new little family member was via photos and the computer screen.
Newborn sessions are a great way to not just treasure these moments, but capture your baby to share with the world – especially while you still trying to figure out how to keep yourself and this new little nugget alive. It can help take the pressure off of you trying to figure out how to have everyone come by and say hi.

For the shoot, we captured headshots and partnership photos. I also did a brand dive and guided Julia long to shoot some behind-the-scenes images, working images, and detail shots! Explaining to her how she could use them, not only for updated headshots and her real estate brochure, but also social media, interview requests, etc. There are so many ways you can use branding images!
