This session with Earth & Essence Hair Studio is going to be a hard one to beat.
Kayla runs a one-chair salon that focuses on creating a calm, welcoming space where her clients can relax while she works her magic. When planning her branding session, the goal was to capture more than just hair photos. We wanted to showcase the personality behind the business.
Branding sessions are about telling a story.
We focused on three main elements during the shoot:
The Artist
Kayla’s personality is a huge part of what makes her salon special. From her bright smile to her relaxed style, we wanted photos that showed the real person clients will meet when they walk through her door.
The Tools of the Trade
Every stylist has tools that represent their craft. Scissors, color bowls, brushes, and products all became part of the visual story.
The Brand Experience
The greenery, soft tones, and simple textures helped reflect the natural and earthy vibe of her studio. Every photo was designed to feel cohesive with the brand she has built.
Branding photography helps small business owners create a consistent presence across their website, social media, and marketing materials, and sessions like this make that possible.
