During our consultation, we will craft your ideal session by picking clothing colors, decor and choose the perfect locations to ensure your images match your personality, whether it is beautiful mountains, forest and turquoise lakes, or you at work in your professional environment.
Get brand clarity
What exactly you need to plan?
-
You want to find the right location
-
You want to think about what you’ll be wearing
-
You want to think of the kind of pictures you’ll need, where you’ll be using them, in what context
-
Do you want hair & makeup?
-
Do you need to bring props?
Create a visual mood board
It's a great idea to create a visual Pinterest mood board of photos and branding elements that you love. This ensures that I get a clear idea of the overall aesthetic that you want to achieve.
Create a shot list
Planning in this much detail in advance means that we get all of the images that you require for your website and social media.
For example:
- Jeans and jumper
- Headshot for about me page
- Banner image with white space for homepage
- Banner image looking to one side for new online course
- Sitting enjoying a coffee with my favourite mug
- Working on laptop at my desk
- Holding books
- Taking a photo with my phone.
What To Wear
What you wear says a lot about your brand and style, and has a major impact on the first impression you make to potential clients.
