Photographer personal branding

personal branding

Photographing another photographer is always a unique (and pretty stressful) experience.


We're so used to being behind the camera... and some of us hate to be in front of it. But when we do, everything shifts.


I know for many photographers, it's hard, emotionally, to make space to be in front of the camera. But this is your reminder: it's worth the effort. Step outside your comfort zone and do it for you. For your brand.


This personal branding session with my talented friend is your reminder of how important it is to feel what our clients feel: the nerves, the excitement, the vulnerability… It's also fun. And it's eye-opening. And you get to see yourself through someone else's lens.


If you're a photographer (or any creative), having your own branding session isn't just about nice pictures - it's about showing who you are and letting people connect with the face behind the camera.


So here's your reminder: put yourself out there. Your brand is your face. You deserve to be seen too..
