Your brand photos are not only about you.

Branding photography is a chance for us to communicate with the people we want to be reaching. To speak directly to them.

But you don’t want to speak to everyone. If you’re speaking to everyone, you’re reaching no one.

Maybe you think photos of yourself never turn out well (I have a way of helping you show up beautifully and naturally on camera). Or maybe you’re someone, like Monique here, who has never even had as she put it, “proper photos taken”. Let’s change that.

The main goal for this Austin Branding Photo Session was to attract a high-end market that trusted Robin with the creative control and direction of their design project while getting the sense that she was artistic and fun. This drove several of our creative and stylistic decisions… we wanted to establish credibility and also create a sense of whimsy.

With the “Human-First” approach, Megan reminds us to prioritize our humanity while running a business, in essence putting our mental health and well-being at the forefront so that we can then in turn be overall better business owners and contributors to the world (including our own, obviously).

This drove the inspiration behind our Austin brand photo session which Megan came all the way from Minnesota for!

That’s why there’s a mix of bed-shots, desk shots, some dirty laundry, and lots of socks, as well as headshots and content photos, of course.

Aparna is a local Austin artist who primarily works with oil paints and graphite. For your Brand Photo Session, we create a visual story that encapsulates who you are and what you do. Here you get a sense of who Aparna is as an artist— what kind of work she creates, what inspires her. We get a glimpse into her studio space, her work tools, the way she approaches and creates her artwork, even how she moves.

Your photos often set the first impression you make on your audience. They are a main point of connection and if they’re done well, they help you build trust and establish credibility in your field and your little corner of the internet.

Now offering women’s editorial boudoir sessions that are organic, sophisticated, and intimate. I believe that every woman deserves a photo session that is all about her and just for her. These sessions, while fun and celebratory, often also bring transformation and healing. 

This is a natural light studio with parking and a bathroom / vanity. You’ll have a private space to touch up your hair and make up, change outfits, and be photographed. The light in this space is insanely beautiful. I photographed these images on a cloudy Austin day and you’d never know it.

The studio is furnished with a bed, couch, table, chairs, and several props— with more to come.

Right now, I’m mainly opening up sessions in this space for women’s empowerment sessions and for personal branding + headshots. But if you have another project or idea in mind, let’s chat!
