1. Start planning in advance.
The more time you have to plan and prepare for a branding photoshoot, the more relaxed you'll be during the shoot and the more confident you'll feel about the result. Give yourself three-four weeks for thorough planning.
2. Define the purpose of the branding photoshoot.
Start by answering the question: "Where do you want to use brand photos?" Strategic planning combined with the artistry of photography allows for a versatile usage of branding images. You can purposefully use them on your websites, social media, advertising, PR campaigns, email marketing, book covers, magazine articles, etc. The choice will depend on your business model and primary communication point with your audience and clients.
3. Create mood boards.
Being inspired is one of the essential premises for the success of any activity, including a branding photoshoot. And mood board reflects your inspiration status and shows the vision of the photoshoot. Mood boards, often inspiration boards, are necessary to conceptualize and keep your actions aligned with a photoshoot goal.
4. Find a branding photographer.
Whether you know one already or still have to conduct your search, now is the right moment to contact them and book a branding photoshoot. Remember that good photographers with an established business might be booked weeks in advance, so think of several possible dates for a photoshoot when having initial communication with them. I'm the founder and a branding photographer at ArsVie photo studio located in Alpharetta, GA, and I also offer photography services in Atlanta. Feel free to contact me for a personal branding photoshoot.
5. Discuss all details with your photographer.
Ask them anything you want to know about the process of a branding photoshoot and discuss your outfits, accessories, props, location, and timeline. Share your goal and vision for a photoshoot and ask for their advice. I love helping my clients, and I'm always happy to apply my experience and guide them through planning.
6. Take care of extra details if needed.
After the initial consultation with your branding photographer, you will want to add extra details to your outfits, accessories, and photoshoot props.
7. Practice posing.
Whether you plan on having a fashion-inspired branding photoshoot or lifestyle, posing will be an essential part of it. Examples of lifestyle posing are standing, sitting in a chair and typing on your laptop, walking, having a cup of coffee, and crossing a street while holding your purse. Lifestyle or documentary style of photography includes photos captured while you are moving and doing something.
8. Pamper yourself.
A day before the photo session, praise yourself for planning your first branding photoshoot and indulge in joyful and peaceful activities. For example, do yoga, meditate, listen to an inspirational podcast or watch a movie with a positive message, do something artistic like painting, get a massage, or read an inspirational book. Enjoy and feel every moment, and practice deep breathing. The purpose of these activities is to slow down and reconnect with yourself, allowing more peaceful energy to flow into your life. Tomorrow, during the photoshoot you will feel energized and creative after a day of pampering yourself.
