Choosing a location for your personal branding session doesn’t have to be difficult.
Before you start considering locations for your session, take the time to think about what your average day looks like. Remember that you want to give potential clients and audience a look at a day in your life so your photos need to tell that story. Think about the story you want to tell, your story.
Lauren is a real estate maven so we wanted a location with an architectural look. We choose a spot where I knew I could get as many looks as possible in a short time. Warning – if you chose this location bring walking shoes. I love to photograph there and will keep you moving!
You may find that you don’t need to look very hard or far for the perfect location. Your office or backyard might be all you need. Using props to bring your workspace to life is a simple way to create a great setting for your shoot. Consider some of the coffee shops, hotels, studios or co-working spaces in your area for ideas. Always opt for a location with as much natural light as possible as this makes for the best shots.
