Are you a creative entrepreneur, crafter, caterer, entertainer, blogger or small business owner setting yourself up (or expanding) and thinking about getting professional brand photography for your website, promotional materials or social media? Are you looking to gain visibility, build connections and reach new clients? Are you hoping to inspire trust by helping people see the real and relatable person behind the business? If yes, then this might be for you …

I believe that honest, authentic brand photography for small businesses is a powerful tool to attract your customer, many of whom have an increasing desire to connect and engage. In the climate of extreme competition, having originality and photographs with character (that tell your story) can be essential in setting you apart from your competition.

So what does personal brand photography look like? If you have your own business, you are the brand – you are your biggest asset and you are far more than the logo.

Invite people behind the scenes!

Creating contextual shots that tell a visual story of the business, so your potential customers can see the authenticity of what you do; your environment, the process, the tools, the materials and your skill. If you work in a casual setting and meet clients over coffee, or spend time in your studio working in an artisan trade why not capture those images in your business photographs?

I always try to tell a story with my photography, demonstrating what you do or the message you’d like to get across. Irrespective of your line of work the outcome is a range of images that can convey your personality, strengthen your message, connect with your audience and show your business in the way you envision it. Depending on your requirements I can help you create a collection of images that can be used across your website and hardcopy promotional materials as well as having a stock of images to boost your social media presence. If you’d like to know more contact me and I can send you some information and arrange a quick chat. In the meantime take a look at my packages below (and bear in mind that whilst packages can be commissioned separately, discounts can be applied when combining two or more together.)

Regular Packages

Brand Portrait (From £329)

This isn’t just about ordinary head shots! Because there are so many sides to you: the strategist, the grafter, the parent, the friend, the explorer, it’s important that your photographs reflect who you are in the mind of your client. If say, you have a quirky, gregarious personality, you will want your photos to reflect who you are. So this is about creative, relaxed head and shoulder shots with an informal and relatable look and feel

Package includes: Concept Planning |1 hour photoshoot | 1 person | 1 location | 3 images | post production. See Additional Extras to make a more bespoke package e.g. you can upgrade the number of images you receive once you have full access to your online gallery – from £25

Behind the Scenes (From £515)

Relaxed work-orientated photographs e.g. the story of you in the context of your working environment. Give your customers a feel for what you and your business is about and what they can expect from working with you.

We all work somewhere and have specific ‘tools of the trade’ but as a guide creative artisans tend to use this package to illustrate their production process and service-based businesses often grab their laptop, phone and stationery and incorporate ‘stand-in’ clients to recreate the informal face-to-face consultations they have with their customers. The opportunities are endless.

Package includes: Concept Planning | 2.5 hour shoot | 1 location | 10 images | post production. See Additional Extras to make a more bespoke package e.g. you can upgrade the number of images you receive once you have full access to your online gallery – from £25

Full Brand Story (From £750)

Differentiate your brand by combining the packages above and telling your full brand story. You can also add in optional extras below to truly bespoke your experience.

Creating a brand story is not simply about standing out and getting yourself noticed. It’s about really inviting customers behind the scenes of your business and showing them what they should care about and buy into. This is an extended ‘day in the life’ bespoke shoot capturing your work authentically alongside you “in your role” or it can be broken up across numerous shoots. It also allows customers to experience a glimpse of the real you outside of your working environment.

Together we’ll plan and create work-orientated ‘doing shots’, fresh and creative stock and product photography, flat lays, brand portraits and personalised lifestyle images. Walk away armed with a collection of images ready for your website, blog posts, magazine and interview features, marketing materials, business cards, newsletters, product catalogues, banners and flyers as well as social media profiles and posts.

Contact me for more details.

Extras

All extras are optional and designed for a flexible service so you can tailor-make your own bespoke package and have complete control of the costs …

Additional Shooting Hours

Available if you require additional shooting hours outside the core package. This might also be necessary if you are planning additional locations, again outside your core package. Extra hours are charged at £82 per hour

Additional Images

I don’t limit the number of images I share with you so a large proportion of shots are posted onto an online gallery meaning you can choose your own favourites. If you’d like to update your core package and increase the number of images you receive you can do so after the shoot once you’ve seen the images online. You do not need to commit to additional images up front. Fees start from £20 per additional image or there are discounted bundles available for an additional 20+ images.

Local Partners

I can also recommend and collaborate with a number of local businesses that compliment my brand photography. Whilst optional, our combined efforts mean we work as a team, plan together and work from the same brief, saving valuable time so you can get back to business. This includes a graphic designer, makeup and hair stylist, copywriter and website developer. Ask me for more details.
