Personal Branding Shoot
What a pleasure it was to meet and photograph the lovely business and life coach Alison Outred of Bright Thinking for her Personal Branding shoot in Edinburgh. Alison helps people who are at a crossroads in their life to make changes and achieve their goals. It was great to meet her and to learn about her business – meeting interesting people like Alison is one of the things I treasure most about my job!
We chatted on the phone in advance of the shoot to discuss the kind of images Alison was looking for and ideas about props and location. If you are interested in a personal branding shoot then please get in touch – we’ll chat about your business, brand and customers and also the details of the shoot. One of the key aims in a personal branding shoot is variety and we can achieve this in lots of different ways including outfit changes, use of props and shot type. You’ll have fun on the shoot (even if this is the last thing you expect!) and you’ll receive a bank of images which reflect your business and are ready to go for use on your website and social media.
Some words from Alison: “I contacted Anna to have some professional shots done for my new website. I generally hate having photos taken and I’m a bit like Chandler in friends when a camera comes anywhere near me so I wasn’t looking forward to the experience but I needn’t have worried. Anna was so lovely and easy to work with that the experience was actually very relaxed and even fun! Anna was so professional throughout, changing lighting, angles and settings in a flash (excuse the pun!) and she gave me lots of time to change outfits and move rooms so we had lots of variety for both my life coaching and business coaching work. I am absolutely delighted with the final shots and they look fabulous on the new website. Thank you Anna. ”
You can see more of my work and please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’d like to chat about a personal branding shoot in Edinburgh or the surrounding areas.
*PS – this was a pre lockdown shoot and all indoor shots were taken in line with government measures at the time.*
Here are a few of my favourite shots from Alison’s session – I love the images which show her at work helping her customers become the best they can be and it’s great to see them being used so beautifully on her website.
