Take it from an Annapolis brand photographer, your brand photos are so much more than headshots. They’re your first impression. They determine how your audience feels before they even read a word. The most iconic brands don’t just sell a product or service–they tell a story. They bring their audience on a journey that exposes the feeling behind their brand. 

So take a look at your brand photos. What feeling do they give? If they’re giving outdated, stock photos, or crappy iPhone photos… it’s time for an upgrade. 

Hi, my name is Laura, and I’m an Annapolis-based brand photographer. I’m here to take colorful, fun, and true-to-you brand photos that show off who you are, what you do, and help you feel like the business bad-ass that you are. 

What Is Brand Photography

When we talk about brand photography, we’re not just talking about headshots of you and your team. We’re talking about personality-packed action shots that show what you do and how good you are at it. For some clients, that means hanging out in the kitchen while they bake a mouth-watering loaf of bread. For others, it means getting up-close-and-personal shots of a sick new tattoo they’re working on. 

Your brand photos are in-the-moment snapshots of what your everyday looks like. They give your audience a picture of what it looks like to work with you, or a behind-the-scenes peek at the inner workings of your business. Brand photos build trust and demonstrate your expertise. They capture who you are – your personality, sense of humor, and even sense of style! They help attract the people you want to work with and repel the people you don’t.

Does Brand Photography Really Matter for a Small Business?  

Hate to break it to ya, babe, but we live in an era of visual marketing. If your brand doesn’t have a strong visual identity, you aren’t going to get business. People who find you online won’t trust you if they can’t get a clear sense of who you are. Just like they won’t buy a product if they can’t see what they’re buying. 

Because let’s be real—people don’t just buy what you do. They buy you. So, what’s your brand saying before you even say a word? What vibe do your photos give? And is that the vibe you want to be giving? Your brand photos will either attract or repel your ideal audience. You need to know what they like and how they buy in order to create a visual presence that attracts them! 

Working with an Annapolis Brand Photographer Who Gets You

Listen, I get being uncomfortable in front of the camera. I get not knowing what to do with your hands. I know that showing your face might feel like the worst part of being a business owner. But it doesn’t have to be! When you work with a brand photographer who gets you, taking your brand photos can be empowering and encouraging. 

At my core, I am a storyteller. Being an Annapolis brand photographer gives me the chance to tell your story in a way that 1) makes YOU feel amazing and 2) attracts your absolute dream clients or customers. No matter what you do or who you do it for, we can take some killer brand photos that leave you saying, “DAMN, I’m hot,” and make your services and products seem even hotter.
