I had so much fun during that brand photo shoot! I met Katherine 2 years ago when she and her family signed up for one of my fall mini sessions. A few weeks ago she contacted me this time for her personal branding photo session. As a plastic surgeon starting her own practice, Santosa Plastic Surgery, she needed a personal brand photo session for her new website and all kinds of communications.

KATHERINE SANTOSA, PLASTIC SURGEON, BRAND PHOTO SESSION
Katherine is at the same time full of energy and very calm which is hard to explain but amazing to work with!
Following the advices from my Branding Session Guide, she prepared her photo shoot to the point. She booked both nails and hair and makeup appointments just before the session.
Katherine also found a GORGEOUS location! Artisan Beauté, in Buckhead, opened us their doors for the morning. Being French I already loved the place just for the name :) We used their curated waiting room which had beautiful earthy tones and a gigantic window. The window might not mean a lot to you but as a photographer, it is a huge source of natural light which is a dream! I would shoot there again any day.
The second part of Katherine's plastic surgery brand photo session took place in one fo their consultation rooms. For that location, I was happy I came prepared and brought a variety of lenses and off camera flash! I have taken pictures in so many different places that it now only takes me a few minutes to adapt.
Katherine, it was a joy to have you again in front of my camera. I LOVE how you're using your brand images for your website and communications.

People often ask me what are the differences between headshots and branding pictures. So let’s dedicate a full blog to it!
Headshots and branding photo sessions are very different, in terms of preparation, content, duration and price! They have one common thing tough. Headshots are included in a personal branding session but your personal brand session will include so much more than that.
You are going to get a lot lot of information here under but don’t worry, I have resources to help you through both your headshots and branding journeys!
HEADSHOTS PICTURES
I usually deliver 3 to 5 high resolution edited images after a headshots session. The pictures will mostly be taken from the waist up. You can select two outfits, combine standing and sitting poses, in one location. I will dedicate another blog to the different headshot backgrounds options!
BRANDING OR PERSONAL BRANDING PICTURES ARE VERY DIFFERENT
A personal branding session is 100% customized to your needs. Each element, such as the outfits you will wear, the locations we will select and your brand colors, will be carefully studied. They will help showcase the uniqueness of your brand and personality.
It will include headshots, your work environment, your business vibe, some lifestyle shots, pictures showing your personality, your creative process, details… and so MUCH more!
As your session is unique, planning is crucial. It helps me understand what you need, your business, your brand, your goals and the messages you want to share. I will also get a better view on how you will use the images, what makes you unique, who your ideal client is.
On the session day, my goal is to understand your brand so well that I can articulate everything as if it was my own.
Personal Brand session typically last half a day or a full day and include different outfits and locations.
It also includes a commercial right to the images. It means that you can use all the high and web resolution edited images for any business communication without restriction.
