“I don’t want to do the branding photoshoot in my home.”
I hear this a lot from my branding clients.
Did you know there are plenty of options if you don’t want to do the photoshoot in your home? You can choose from a coworking space, a rental home, your favorite outdoor space (e.g. a downtown street, park, lake), your favorite coffee shop, and more!
Before you choose a location, you’ll have to think about the type of images you’ll need to promote your personal brand and your business.
Do you plan to promote an upcoming launch (new service/course/membership)?
Do you need images to show your processes or behind-the-scenes?
Do you need images to share your hobbies, your daily routine, or your family?
It’s easier to choose a location for your branding photoshoot once you have a clear goal.
Here are a few examples to help you think about your next branding photoshoot location.
If you are a coach, a coworking space would be ideal. This is where you can have pictures of you working on your laptop, working on your next workshop, working with a client, sharing your favorite self-help books, and of course, a headshot.
If you are in the health and wellness industry (such as a physical therapist, yoga instructor, or acupuncturist), the perfect location would be the place where you serve your clients, for example, a yoga studio or your office. This is where you can have pictures of you working with a client, preparing for a session, the tools you use, behind-the-scenes setup, and headshots.
If you are a creative (such as an artist, photographer, or videographer), choose a location that fits your personality and your brand and showcases your work and products with some behind-the-scenes pictures. If you love being outdoors, choose your favorite outdoor spot for your headshots and walking shots. If you have a favorite restaurant or cafe, this would be a great place for some lifestyle headshots like sipping your favorite drink and pictures of you collaborating with another entrepreneur.
