The Process
Discovery Call
Let's work together to bring your vision to life! To get started, book a discovery call with me so we can discuss your unique photography needs. During our call, we will explore your brand, project, the desired number of images, intended usage, and timeline. Each project is unique, and I will provide a tailor-made estimate for your specific needs. To secure your booking, a signed photography contract and deposit are required. I can't wait to create stunning visuals for your brand!
Pre-Production
The pre-production phase is a crucial step in ensuring a successful photoshoot. During this phase, we work together to create a mood board, finalize the day-of details, and schedule the photoshoot(s). I also prepare a detailed creative brief that outlines each image, including the props, composition, and more. I create sketches that pre-compose each shot to further ensure our vision is aligned, providing a clear game plan for our creative direction. This helps everyone involved to have a clear understanding of what to expect, ultimately making the photoshoot run smoothly.
The Shoot
During the photoshoot, I bring my expertise in lighting, composition, and creative direction to ensure we capture the best images possible. Whether we're shooting on-location or in-studio, I use professional equipment and techniques to create stunning visuals that truly represent your brand's unique personality and story. By shooting tethered to my laptop, we can review each image as it's captured, make real-time adjustments, and ensure we're capturing your vision. Your creative direction and approval of images as we shoot help eliminate re-shoots and ensure a smooth post-production process.
Post-Production
After the photoshoot, I meticulously curate and edit each image in post-production. This includes colour correction, cropping, minimal retouching, and white balancing. Depending on the project, the editing process can take some time, and I will keep you informed if any additional editing is needed. Once complete, the images will be uploaded to a private online gallery for you to view and download. My goal is to provide you with stunning, high-quality images that perfectly capture your brand's personality and story.
