Do you need a business photo shoot? (Also frequently called a brand photo shoot.)
If you’ve had a business for a while or if you’re just getting started in your entrepreneurial journey, it’s likely that you can benefit from a business photo shoot. A business photo shoot (or branding photoshoot or brand photo shoot) can help you to elevate your business and stand out from your competitors.
In this post, I’ll be discussing 5 important signs that you may need a business photo shoot.
What is a Business Photo Shoot?
A business shoot is a photoshoot specifically for your business to showcase your expertise, authority, and unique selling proposition. It’s often called a branding photo shoot. Unlike a portrait session, which is personal in purpose, a business photo shoot is for your business.
These photos are meant to help promote your business, showcase your services and products, and ultimately help you make more money. A business photo session includes photos such as headshots, behind the scenes photos, process photos, product photos, lifestyle photos, and more.
Especially if you have a personal brand, a business shoot will help you to stand out from other businesses in your space. There is only one you and when you can build your business on your personal brand, there is no competition.
5 Important Signs You Need a Business Photo Shoot
- You have a defined ideal client or target audience
- You have been DIY-ing your photos and are ready to elevate your brand
- You’re going through a rebrand or launching a new website
- You’re launching a new product, service, or offer
- You’re tired of relying on photos from your phone and doing it yourself
If any of the above criteria apply to you, you are a good candidate for a brand photoshoot. Businesses grow and evolve as time goes on, so it’s important to keep your marketing materials updated and fresh whenever you have a major change.
Benefits of a Business Photo Shoot
The goal of a brand photo shoot (or business branding photoshoot) is to tell the story of your brand. When we plan your branding shoot, you’ll receive an extensive brand questionnaire so that I can understand your brand, your ideal client, and the goals of your photoshoot.
When you receive your photos, you should be able to start using your photos right away. Whether you’re using the photos on your website, social media, social marketing ads, or any other marketing, a business photo shoot should yield usable photos.
You’ll have a library of on-brand photos for your business to use across promotional and marketing initiatives. You won’t have to go hunting for a “good” photo because you’ve got a gallery full of options. That’s why it’s important to know how you plan to use the photos and who your ideal client is.
Who Needs a Branding Shoot
Businesses of all types can benefit from a brand photo shoot. Any service based business who wants to set themselves apart can use a brand photoshoot. Whether you’re a plumber, HVAC, graphic designer, dentist, doctor, lawyer, nurse injector, esthetician, massage therapist, accountant, web designer, copywriter, blogger, influencer, or any business leading with a personal brand — you can benefit from a business branding shoot.
ROI from a Brand Session
Wondering what the ROI (return on investment) from a brand photoshoot is? Business owners have reported feeling more confident marketing their business, getting more leads for their business, catching the attention of people online (by stopping the scroll), and more sales.
I know that when I had my own brand photoshoot, I felt more confident having on-brand photos that I could use to market my business, I received more leads and inquiries, and booked more clients. There’s just something special about fresh photos and seeing a business owner invest in themselves!
