Calling all small business owners!!!! Do you ever sit down to post on social media and draw a blank? Or are you ready to finally get around to updating your website, but keep putting it off because the idea of sourcing your images is overwhelming? But wait…maybe you hate the idea of even showing up online because you don’t like any pictures you have of yourself? I hear ya…I’ve been there…and I’m going to share how branding photography can not only elevate your business but also wipe away all that stress I listed above. I’ve worked with a TON of professionals over the last four years…and here are my top 3 ways branding photography can elevate your business:

#1)

Branding Photography saves you time and mental energy. When we do a branding photoshoot, I follow a very specific formula (with a ton of creative sparkles thrown in for good measure) that will gift you a HUGE bank of images that are ready to go for any post, promo, offer, email, or website refresh you may need throughout the year!! We work together through what’s coming up for you and your business, while also looking at your brand “stories” and we create a roadmap for the session so that we make sure you have a variety of images!!

Or maybe you get stuck in a rut and don’t really know what you want to post. Grab an image from your gallery and let the inspiration flow. With your well planned shoot, there will always be an image you can snag and then share from your heart or talk about a growth moment or a new idea you want to share that falls in line with your brand pillars or stories.

#2)

Branding Photography brings up the level of professionalism. No more selfies. No more stock only images. No more cell phone pics that aren’t quite right. You look professional because your images were done by a professional. A professional branding photographer notices details that you may not and will also think of things that you may not. I have worked with realtors, bakers, photographers, dance teachers, musicians, artists, event planners, yoga instructors, public speaking strategists, Marie Kondo trained professional organizers, jewelry consultants, etsy shop owners, ballerinas, hair stylists, interior designers, corporate business men and women…and yes, even Marines….so I bring lots of ideas and experience to each branding session. And sometimes, it’s best to STOP doing what everyone in your industry is doing and take a few tips and notes from other industries!

#3)

The 3rd way that brand photography can elevate your business is by building in the personal touch to your brand. We all know that we like to buy from people that we know, like, and trust…and your own branding photography sessions gives you an entire gallery of images that are all featuring YOU! You are your brand…and people need to see YOU! It gives them an opportunity to see your face and some peeks into your personality and what it might actually look like to work with you!

If you are a small business owner…what are you waiting for? Go out there and book your very own branding session!! You won’t regret it!!!
