Humans are emotionally driven. We seek out experiences that tug on our heartstrings - messages that make us feel, products that are pretty, brands that have a story to relate to.
Telling stories is a powerful tool to drive your audience. We create story-driven content that focuses on your branding image, trading traditional headshots for more intimate portraits, and normal product photography for lifestyle vignettes.
What is Our Brand Photography Philosophy?
What Does a Story Session Provide for Your Brand?
We start with an initial consultation to learn about your brand, and to identify themes within your brand to reflect in your imagery. Each session is structured to provide you with 3-months worth of images, an collaborative brainstorming session to conceptualize stories within your brand, unlimited crops for different social media platforms, a recommended sequence for posting and quick turnaround, so you can spend less time stressing over what you need to post, and more time running your business, spending time with family, traveling, playing, sailing, crocheting, spelunking...
Conservative corporate headshots are boring and outdated. These days, people seek out brands that they feel a personal connection with - Portraits should be oozing with personality - not stiff and formal. Let’s create something that represents more of you!
