Answer:
Brand photography is strategy-driven. Instead of just taking photos, we plan images based on how you’ll actually use them — on your website, blog, social media, and marketing materials.
This approach helps your photos work harder for your business, not just look good.
Answer:
Brand photography is ideal for:
If your website, blog, or marketing relies on visuals, brand photography helps ensure those visuals are intentional and aligned.
Answer:
Images may be used for:
Usage details are outlined in your contract and depend on the session type.
Answer:
Yes — when used correctly. Optimized images, paired with strategic blog content and location-based pages, can support search visibility and user experience.
Photography alone isn’t an SEO strategy, but it plays an important supporting role when combined with content and structure.
I accept only 4 photoshoots per month to ensure that all clients receive attention and care, proper planning and strategy, and for work life balance.
I usually photography around 25-30 clients per year.
Depending on the business and brand of the client, we’ll photograph anywhere from a natural light studio, to a styled home, to the client’s home or retail storefront. It truly depends on the client.
A brand photoshoot typically includes headshots, lifestyle images, workspace photos, detail shots, and behind-the-scenes moments. Hair & makeup, video content, and location selection are available as add-ons.
A brand photography session is typically booked by a small business owner, entrepreneur, solopreneur or personal brand to have photos for marketing their business. A portrait session is usually personal in nature and is not for commercial purposes.
Wardrobe guidance is provided as part of the planning process.
In general, clients are encouraged to wear pieces that:
Reflect their brand or personality
Photograph well on camera
Work across multiple uses (website, social, marketing)
Specific recommendations depend on the type of session.
In addition to photography, I offer education and resources that help photographers and business owners use content, blogging, and SEO strategically to get found online.
First, we can start with a discovery call to make sure to address any questions you may have. It’s a no-pressure connection call to make sure that I’m the right fit for you. From there, I’ll send you the booking form where you can choose a date, a package, sign the contract, and make a payment.
A signed contract and first payment (usually 50% of total) are required to be officially booked. Your session date is not saved until these things are received.
While a discovery call is not required to book a brand photoshoot, I recommend on if you have any questions you need addressed prior to booking. If you’re ready to book, just send me and email and let me know which package you’d like to move forward with.
