April 18, 2022 Jennifer Davis

You’ve had your brand photography session. NOW WHAT? What do you do with all those great photos you have within your business?

Here are a few suggestions on where to use your brand photos. Work through these suggestions to get the most out of your brand photography photos.

Update headshots throughout your social media

Spend time going through all of your social media accounts and replacing your old headshot with the beautiful new one!

Facebook
Instagram
LinkedIn
Twitter
Etc. Any location you have a photo of you.

Freshen up your website

STOP using stock photos! You have beautiful new images that are unique and totally YOU! USE THEM!! Put them throughout your website. On the Homepage. On the About Me page. On the Contact Me page. Everywhere! Let your client see you and your business! See how my friend, Sarah, is using her brand photos in her about me page below.

Include within your newsletters and emails

Most people have email signatures at the bottom of their emails. Why not include a photo of you there, too!?

New business cards with updated headshot

Clients can make a connection through seeing your beautiful smile. Include one on your business card!

Use images + words

You can include text with your images to use for marketing and advertising. I use Canva.com to create advertising using the images from my brand photography session.

After updating and using your brand photos in all areas of your business, you can celebrate and cheer! It will feel SO GREAT that you invested in beautiful, authentic images for your business and brand! Use that content and reap the rewards!!

WHAT kind of photos do you receive FROM A BRANDING SESSION :: SOUTHEASTERN INDIANA BRAND PHOTOGRAPHER

February 10, 2022 Jennifer Davis

You may be wondering what you would get if you booked Jennifer Davis for your next brand photography. Well…let me tell ya.

For all of my brand photography sessions, together we determine a plan before I even pick up my camera and start shooting. We lay out a shot list and gather essential props for your session. You fill out a questionnaire so that I can get to know a little bit more about you and your business. I want to get to know you to be able to obtain the best quality photos for YOU!

LOOKING AND SMILING

At every brand session, I will always get several photos of you looking at the camera and smiling. Showing your face in your small business is so important to being able to connect with your clients. You are your brand! These photos are a no brainer for a brand photography session. But, having several options from different angles and in different outfits helps to ensure you have options to use.

WORKING

Giving potential clients an inside look at what you do and how you do it can help them connect with you more. It allows your potential clients to see you hard at work in different ways. If you create something, show how you do that! Take Sarah for an example. She is an interior design photographer. In her business, she uses a camera, computer and phone for her work. Getting the photos(below) of her with those items and editing on her computer is a way for her to show off her skills in action.

DETAILS

In preparation for your brand session, we come up with prop list to use during the session. With those props, I am able to get detailed photos of products and items you use for your business. Those close ups photos can be used in different areas of your business to showcase the different “tools of the trade”.

VARIETY

With all of those together, looking & smiling, working, and detail shots, you are guaranteed to have a variety of photos to use for your website, social media, and marketing. Out of just ONE brand photography session, I am able to generate multiple wonderful images to share and reuse throughout your business.

If you are interested in booking a brand photography session, please contact me here or email me at hello@jenndavisphoto.com. I am looking forward to hearing from you and getting the ball rolling on your awesome brand photography session!

With love, Jennifer

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A Lifestyle BRAND SESSION:: INDIANA BRAND PHOTOGRAPHER

January 17, 2022 Jennifer Davis

I’m very excited to be offering lifestyle brand photography sessions for my clients. Booking a lifestyle brand photography session should be an easy decision for an entrepreneurial small business owner. Your visual image is vital to your success. Lifestyle brand sessions are best suited for a solopreneur or a business with a small number of employees.

First, when you booking your lifestyle brand session with Jennifer Davis Photography, you can decide on the package that is right for you. Based on your budget, you can start with a mini, professional or premium lifestyle brand session. I typically recommend starting with the professional or premium level package for your initial session. Then, when you need updated headshots or you need promotional photos, you can book the mini brand photography session. It’s the perfect length for a quick update!

After you book your lifestyle brand photography session, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire about you and your business. This allows me to understand what appearance you are trying to convey to your clients and how to best capture that through brand photography. The questionnaire also helps me to get an understanding of WHO your clients are and what might be the best way to reach them.

Then, we will set up a pre-session meeting to plan your lifestyle brand photography session. We will discuss all of the shots that you will be wanting to get out of the session. This shot list will be printed out and act as a guide throughout your session. We will also come up with a list of props and items needed for your brand photography session. This step may seem minuscule, but this is very important to making your photos work for your business. Plus, having props can make you feel more comfortable by having something in your hands.

Finally, we will use all of the planning to execute a relaxed, productive, efficient lifestyle brand photography session that will produce very useful images for your business.
