What’s a BRAND BOOK?

A Canva template I created that helps you pull together the most beautiful printed book using photos from a brand photography session.

(Think of it as a newborn album, if you were a newborn photographer)

If you’re a brand photographer, you need this...

πŸ”·If you want to stand out in your industry
πŸ”·If you wish to offer a premium, boutique service
πŸ”·If you want your clients to trust you with all their heart
πŸ”·If you love pairing design with photography
πŸ”·If you wish your clients would USE their photos more
πŸ”·If you desire extra income

πŸ’«Take it from someone who has been branding women-led businesses for 8 years...

When you can help your clients be clear on who they serve, what makes them unique, and have a clean and concise marketing message... they will attract more ideal clients.

(And so will you)

Truth: Working with larger teams reminds me just a little bit of my wedding photography days...
πŸ’«There is some wrangling involved
πŸ’«Timelines need to be adhered to
πŸ’«And maybe, just maybe, not everybody wants to be there πŸ€ͺ

So maybe they are a touch more challenging to schedule and administer than a entrepreneur brand shoot, but to be completely honest with you - they are SO rewarding. Results can be magic.

I know that each of these tasks is easier with brand photos (I’ve done them in my own biz) ⁠
⁠
πŸ’« AND I’ve watched my clients use them over again for these very things. In fact they could probably comment with a lot of things I’m missing. Oh yeah - getting AWARDS - there’s nothing like announcing a recognition you’ve achieved while pairing it with a rockstar photo of you!⁠

You may be surprised. (I know my clients often are.)⁠
⁠
When we plan a shoot, I always strive to understand how you will use the final photos as well as how you want to be portrayed.⁠
⁠
➑️Do you want to do more speaking this year? Get more 1:1 clients? Many times it makes sense to incorporate other people into your brand shoot so we can represent that collaborative energy. ⁠
⁠
πŸ’ƒπŸ½Even if you are a one-woman show.⁠
⁠
πŸ’«AND you might just be surprised at how willing your friends, family members or strategic partners will be to hop in photos with you!⁠
⁠
Usually, they are flattered to be asked and excited to help you out. ⁠
⁠
All of these examples are women small business owners who asked their network to join us in the studio. Don’t you just LOVE the result?⁠
⁠
Because using your network is a fabulous way to elevate your brand. 😘⁠

In a strategy session the other week, it was suggested to me that there be "more of Katie in your feed."⁠
⁠
Here goes!⁠
⁠
➑️ My favorite color is kelly green 🟒. When I see somebody wearing it, I ALWAYS stop them and tell them they are wearing my favorite color! ⁠
⁠
➑️ I love a good bargain, and garage sale season is upon us. I literally cannot pass up an "Estate Sale" sign 🏚️and my kids know this, and have grown to love the hunt with me- (And I have learned to keep πŸ’²on me) ⁠
⁠
➑️ I am kind of crazy about doing the dishes. They are done after every meal (armed with dish gloves and a rubber apron so my stomach doesn't get wet!) My pet peeve is when other people do the dishes WITHOUT first clearing out the dishrack so they put WET clean dishes on top of DRY clean dishes. ⁠
⁠
Anyone else? Green? Estate sales? Strict Dishwasher?πŸ˜‚β

Thank you to one of my real estate clients for her 5 star review!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​You guys, I am only 4 people away from having 50 (5 star) reviews, and feeling incredibly grateful for the opportunity to meet, serve and connect with such amazing business owners!

Sorry for the humble brag- Sometimes you just gotta :)
Seriously though, I will need to think of a way to celebrate when I reach 50!

Full review:

"From the first hello, Katie was amazing. Delightful to talk to. Accommodating. Wonderful to work with. Her work is beyond fabulous and she knew exactly how to put me at ease and get the most perfect shots. It was terrific working with her. She is a fabulous person, and inspiration and a talented artist.
5 stars for Katie."

This finance team got refreshed headshots, but also a whole lot of branding fun thrown in the mix!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​BTW - I'm loving sharing more than just 1 photo from a session at a time. Helps share the vibe of each session, would you agree?

(How did it take me so long to create carousels?!)

Just in case you need a little encouragement today...​​​​​​​​​I'll share something that stuck with me ​​​​​​​​​
Which famous philosopher, you may ask?

OK, it was from yoga class. But you know, inspirational is everywhere :)

She said, and I quote:
"You can do this.
You are expanding,
and it can be uncomfortable"

As with so many parts of running a small business, expanding brings with it new challenges and risks.

If one of the things that makes you feel "uncomfortable" is putting your face in front of your business...

well that is where I can help you!

This client was a real live scientist. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I kind of wanted to borrow her white lab coat and do a little twirl, not gonna lie.

but I resisted. :)

P.S. If you'd like to see highlights from her session I have the lifestyle product shoot featured on the latest blog: "The Magic of Lifestyle Product Photography"

When I was on spring break shopping with my mom and sisters, we went into an art gallery that had these "Spirit Tiles" enamel and copper art with an image and sayings. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I didn't buy one, but did grab the brochure that has many inspirational quotes and sayings on it - proudly residing on my desk.

Here is one I pulled for you today - so much of running a small business is knowing when to act on something.

Fun fact: in our wedding vows we had a reading by Paulo Coelho (not this quote - it was from "The Alchemist" when the two lovers meet at the well - anyone know it?)
