Think about the last 10 financial decisions you made from a business you didn’t know beforehand (purchasing products or services): out of those how many did you make because of the people and the brand story behind the product or service?
I’m guessing it’s a pretty significant percentage.
And how did you come to know that brand’s personality or story? Their visuals!
According to MDV Advertising 60% of consumers say they’re more like to consider or contact a business that has an image show up in local search results.
I don’t know about you but I don’t want to be one to miss out on those opportunities; and having the best images showing up in local search, social media, anywhere online can only do your business good.
What is Brand Photography Exactly?
Branding photography is those images that go beyond head shots to tell your brand story and give your audience a look behind the scenes at how your business runs.
Think images with feeling, emotion, stories, fun; images that stop your audience in their scroll and pique their interests!
Think images of you with your clients performing services, you working at your desk, answering the phone, taking notes, sipping on a cup of coffee (or tea if that’s your thing), out and about visiting clients on site – all the visual stories that make up your day-to-day business. These are all part of brand photography, but there are thousands of other images we can capture.
First Impressions are Lasting Impressions
People will form an opinion of your brand in the first seconds and in order for that opinion to be a good one you need to have good quality images.
Professional brand photography offers consistency and quality that you can’t achieve on your own. A branding shoot can give you a professional edge over your competitors.
Visibility, Credibility, Profitibility
When you have high quality, professional images that you are proud of you will share them.

One of the key foundations of business success is visibility – which leads to to credibility – which leads to to profitibility. Sharing those beautiful images that you are proud of is an important step towards growing your business.
Do you currently have images that you’re proud to share, and if so, do you have enough to share an image every single day?
Level Up
The impact that the consistency and quality of professional brand images can have on any business is massive. Once you begin sharing your images you will see higher engagement on your social media channels, you will notice more happening around those images.
After investing in your business in this way, you will definitely see your brand level-up.
