A great partnership with your branding photographer starts long before they pick up their camera.
For me, all branding sessions start with a really good chat about what you actually need. Even though you’re busy and it can feel hard to make the time, it is a vital part of the process, and one I won’t move forward without. I also know that ‘tell me what you need’ can be an easy question for some of us to answer, and for others it can be really overwhelming. So it’s important to me to break things down and make sure we’re on the same page, every step of the way.
I recently worked with Cher from The Mindful Organiser who had reached the point of needing new imagery for her website and socials to match the growth and change in her business. Making the time to build strong foundations to our partnership meant that when we had to make some last minute adaptations, we were in a great position to meet them head on. Our session was both fast paced and so enjoyable - we worked together to make sure that when she opened her gallery, she recognised everything she has worked so hard to build.
“Sarah was an absolute dream to work with and I have a huge collection of incredible photos for my new website, press, and social media. I needed an expert brand photographer to capture updated images for my home organising business, and Sarah went above and beyond in every part of the process. In the planning phase, she took the time to understood my services, and what I was hoping to capture in our shoot. She streamlined the entire process, offered great suggestions before and during the shoot, and made me feel comfort throughout. She balances professionalism with her lovely, calm and friendly personality. She was quick to respond to messages and returned the finished photo gallery before expected. I'm so happy with both the range of images, the professional look. I can't wait to share these photos with the world! A huge thank you Sarah, and I look forward to working together again in the future.”
Over our first brew, I’ll be keen to learn as much as possible from you. We’ll start with what you already have, and what you’re missing to get to where you need to be. I’ll ask you to talk me through who you’re trying to reach and what you’d like them to know about you and your story. Alongside understanding the services you offer, or the products you sell, it’s important to me to learn as much as I can about you. I want to understand what makes you feel most like yourself, and to know what your take is on being in front of the camera. I’ll then bring all of this together to meet you where you are, and to give you a really clear plan for what happens next.
If you’re ready to update your branding photography, or you’re starting from the very beginning with your first set of images, I’d love to chat about working together. You can drop me a message here and we’ll get that brew booked in.
