What to Expect from a Branding Photo Shoot

As a Seattle photographer who has worked with countless clients, I know that not everyone is comfortable in front of a camera. And yet, as a business owner, you know that professional branding photography is an essential step in growing your brand and your business. If you’re curious about a branding photo session or anxious, I’m here to paint a picture so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Talking Through All the Details

This isn’t the case with all photographers, but at my Mercer Island photo studio, I find that planning collaboratively is such a vital part of the process. You and I will have a consultation where we’ll talk through all of it - how you want to present your brand, how you want to look, what you should wear and bring, and how you should prepare. By the end of this meeting, I’ll know how to design your session, and you’ll know exactly what to do and what to expect.

Professional Hair and Makeup

Professional hair and makeup services are included in my photo sessions for multiple reasons. For one, I know you want to look your best in your headshots, and a professional can help. But second, I also don’t want you to be stressed about trying to get ready in time and make sure your hair is lying perfectly, so instead, you get to relax while a professional takes care of that for you. It’s a great way to kick off an enjoyable, low-stress photo shoot.

A Treatment Session That’s Tailored to You

The entire goal of branding headshots is to communicate your brand visually, so your photo session will be fully customized to you. We’ll set up my studio (or whatever location you prefer) to align with your brand and your vision for how you want your photos to look.

Step-by-Step Posing Guidance

This is the part that makes a lot of clients nervous: not knowing how to pose or how to look natural in photos. I’ve got you! All you have to do is show up ready to have a good time and get some fantastic headshots. Throughout the photo shoot, I’ll guide you every step of the way through different poses and looks, making sure that you’re representing your brand in the best way and looking spectacular while doing it.
