A Brand Session is a session designed and planned just for you. The goal is to get a custom collection of images that tells the story of your brand. These images create a visual of who you are and what you do. They give your clients a glimpse into you, your brand and what to expect working with you!

"Corey did a lifestyle/brand photoshoot with me for a new business...She was extremely thoughtful and creative about what types of photos would be good specifically for my project... She was a true pleasure to work with from start to finish and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to others."

Brand photography is a collection of images that visually represent a business’s identity, values, and offerings, helping them tell their story and connect with their audience and stand out in their industry.
Why is Brand Photography so Important?
Brand photography is important for small business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals who want to build a strong, recognizable brand. But more importantly, for anyone who offers a service and/or needs to build a relationship and trust with their clients. Brand photography offers an glimpse into who you are and what it's like to work with you, thus building trust.
How much does brand photography cost? That's largely dependent on what you are needing. I have packages that range from about an hour that are a quick refresh which start at $550 all the way up to a full day of shooting with studio time, hair and make up and the works which start at $1800. All sessions include questionnaires, planning calls and assistance with prop selection, wardrobe etc!
No fear, you will not be left on your own to figure this out! We will talk in great length in our planning process about wardrobe and prop selection. If you are curious about general suggestions, here are a few blog posts I have created for general guidance.
What should I wear to a brand session?
What props should I bring to a brand session?
First we will have a preliminary planning meeting/chat to discuss what you need and the goals of your session. Based on this we will brainstorm location options and I will suggest locations I think would work well with your brand. I spend a lot of time scouting locations to find the best fit for each individual client. Often, a session will take place at 2-3 different locations.
What location should I use for my brand session?
A Brand session is so much more than a headshot. BUT a headshot is always included in a brand session. A brand session includes many types of shots but several of them will be a traditional headshot and lifestyle or modern headshots. Other shots include lay flats and vignettes, tools of the trade, lifestyle/you in action, personality and special occasion/ celebrations. A brand session gives you images to tell your brand story and what it's like to work with you while a headshot is a simple shot you'd use for something like a profile picture.
This was the first full branding session for Good Daweg. Wesley needed a range of photos to showcase him in action dog training as well as headshots and fun Houston centric shots to highlight his location. Wesley's shoot was so fun because we got to think outside the box and get creative!

Eliza is a beautiful, sweet and very talented yoga instructor in Houston, TX. Her session was a refresh session. She needed some updated images to maintain social media and have a library of images to use when needed. Her session was so fun because she's truly inspiring to watch and it was an honor to capture these for her!
Abby is a passionate, kind and knowledgeable local Houston Realtor. She loves connecting with her current and future clients. She needed a catalogue of images to be able to pull from to use in her social media posting. Her session we aimed to get a variety of images for her to have months of content.
