Knowing your Brand

Knowing your brand is key to having a successful business and a successful branding session. When you know your brand you will know what your needs are for photography. You will know what your vibe is. What clothing you should wear, what location to choose and which photographer can give you what you need to represent your business.

Failing to know your brand will likely leave you with images that don’t represent your brand, or help tell your story and what you do for your customers. You may also be left needing to spend money on another session down the road.

Have an online presence

What are branding photos with no place to display them! While having a Facebook business profile or instagram can help you market yourself on social it’s not going to take you as far as having a website. Having a website with professional branding photos will set you apart and help you find your ideal clients, which will in turn grow your business.

Instagram and Facebook are great places to share images from your session but that can’t be the only plan you have to use those images.

Have a plan for your images

As I said before you need a plan. What are you going to use these images for? Knowing your brand and having a plan on where your images will be displayed will help you be very clear on how your session will go.

When you book your photographer you will be given a questionnaire and often be scheduled for a planning call. These are important for your photographer to get to know you and your business and what you need from them to help tell your story and represent you. Having an idea on where you will need images for your website, social media, printed marketing materials or business cards will help photographer know how they need to shoot to give you the best photos for each purpose.

Having a plan also makes it easy and simple for you to use your images exactly how you want. No confusion.
