Thinking you don’t need a branding session? Picture this… You have your marketing and PR team working hard for you. Your website is killer and your social media game is strong. You have your brand distinguished with your logo, fonts, colors and message. You have followers that engage and customers who adore you. Did you know that they want to know more about you and your story? After all, you are your brand. They want those behind the scenes shots. They want to know what a day in the life of you is all about. But most of all? They want to see your stunning face!

When you find your specialty and really get it hone in on it and make it yours, it’s the perfect time to document that momentum and use it to help you up-level your brand. We were so excited to work with Lindsey to show off all the different facets of her brand, Lindsey Long Equine Photography, including the the behind-the-scenes work!

When creative forces combine it creates so much beauty! Who knew I would enjoy shooting interiors so much. But when there is so much eye candy designed by Robin of Olazko Interiors, it’s hard not to be so excited and capture every little detail.

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.

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.

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!

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!
