So you’ve decided to start a business
Congratulations! It’s a big step and can be totally life-changing. I so admire anyone who sets up on their own.
Starting out can be exciting and scary all at once. It’s natural when you’re trying something new to feel like you’re out of your comfort zone.
Perhaps you have big dreams for your business but you struggle with showing up online.
Whether you’re preparing to launch or you’re in the early phases of business, confidence is key. When you feel good, you radiate that energy to others.
Glow with confidence
Your first brand photography shoot can be daunting. That’s why I focus on putting you at ease and helping you feel good from the inside out.
I help you visually communicate what makes you unique. My aim is for you to grow in confidence and connect with what makes you special.
First impressions count
Professional photography helps you to make an impression.
People relate to people. Seeing you can encourage empathy and spark a personal connection with your brand.
Branding photography is a step on your business journey that shows you’re taking it seriously. It sends the right message to your clients - and to your self-doubt!
It helps you go from feeling nervous and holding back to being proud to share what you’ve created.
By your side
I’ve specially designed this service to gently ease you into the world of brand photography. We chat through ideas before the session, including how to visually communicate your brand. I know when I started out, talking to other business owners helped me feel less alone. Together, we’ll come up with a plan to keep nerves at bay.
My aim is that after your session you’ll feel more confident in front of the camera and have the essentials to take your business to the next level.

FAQs
I’ve not launched yet - is this right for me?
I remember what it is like in those early days - it’s a really creative phase and it can feel like everything’s evolving all the time. Chatting through your ideas together can help you feel more confident and seen.
You’ll make the most of your investment if you know your audience, what makes you unique and your offers. I’d hate for you to invest only to change your mind a few months later.
I’m nervous about spending money on the business - how do I know it’s the right decision?
I totally get it. Branding photography is an investment. When you’re starting out, it helps you make professional and personal first impression. Clients often tell me it’s a big step in their business and hiring a professional boosts their confidence.
If you’re still figuring out your audience and your offers, I’d recommend waiting to make the most of your investment. But if you’re ready to take your business seriously and go to the next level, I can help you visually communicate what makes you unique.
How long will it take?
I get that you are busy in this exciting phase while your business takes flight. We chat through a plan on a call to make the most of your time on the day. I’d recommend allowing 1 - 1.5 hours for the session. You’ll also get access to an online gallery of photographs you can use on your website, social media, newsletter, and more to save time when creating content.
What do I need to prepare?
Planning ahead can soothe stress and take the pressure off. Knowing what’s going to happen is a big help in keeping nerves at bay.
