What Kind of Brand Shoot Do I Actually Need? (THE SOLO EDITION)
You know you need brand photos. You’ve thought about it. Talked about it. Probably added it to your to-do list 78 times and circled it in pink highlighter. Stressed out about it. Shed a tear. But when it comes to actually booking a shoot, it’s totally normal to feel a wee bit overwhelmed. There are a few different options out there, and figuring out what’s right for you can feel impossible.
Soooooo - let’s break it down, shall we?
Whether you’re a one-woman show, a team of legends, a product-based business, or a service-provider needing to up your content game, I’ve got a shoot option with your name on it. And we are ALWAYS happy to chat bespoke - so if it doesn’t sound quite right, get in touch anyway and we’ll whip something up, just for you. Take a peek at our personal branding sessions designed for individuals (team session blog post coming soon - stay tuned!)
Personal branding sessions for one
THE MINI | Mini Brand Shoot
Perfect if: you’re just getting started, need a wee refresh, or want to dip your toe in the personal branding pool.
This is a 15-20 minute shoot on location where we capture a variety of images you can sprinkle across your website, Instagram, and marketing material. You’ll walk away with a fab little bank of photos that show your face, your brand vibe, and a bit of personality to boot.
Great for headshots with flair, lifestyle pics, and a dash of content to keep your socials ticking over. Our mini brand shoots are $400+GST, at your chosen location in Wellington (venue hire is additional).
Psst: Want a lil deal?
Keep an eye out for our Brand Mini Days — these are $300 + GST, same goodness, just at our chosen location and with a limited number of spots. They’re dreamy, they’re speedy, and they book out fast. We also have the wonderful Mikayla from Peasy onsite for these, grabbing b-roll and bts video clips for your socials. And there are usually some yum snacks onsite (not that we’re trying to bribe you into it…)
THE BRAND SNAPSHOT | A 1-Hour Personal Brand Shoot
Perfect if: you want variety, flexibility, and a lil more time to capture the magic.
This one’s for the business owners who want to dig a little deeper. We’ll work together to plan the vibe, location(s), and key shots you need. We’ll grab headshots, lifestyle content, action shots, and all those behind-the-scenes moments that show your clients what you’re all about.
This is ideal if you want a proper image refresh or need content that’ll stretch across multiple platforms. It’s one of my most popular offerings for a reason — plenty of time to warm up, get comfy in front of the lens, and make some content goodness. You’ll receive all the best shots from your shoot, via an online gallery. A one hour personal branding session is $880+GST.
The personal branding edit | 3-Hour Personal Brand Shoot
Perfect if: you’ve got a whole content plan in mind, run multiple services or products, or want ALL the things.
This is a big one. Three glorious hours of content creation — which means we can do a full brand deep dive. Think: multiple outfits, multiple locations, and a combo of headshots, lifestyle imagery, product or workspace shots, BTS content, and even a content creator on-site capturing b-roll and reels.
Yep, you read that right. You’ll get 3 edited reels, a stash of raw iPhone footage, and so much usable content. This one is a brand refresh, launch day dream, and content queen’s ultimate package all rolled into one. The investment for this shoot is $1800+GST - and you’ll walk away set for ages.
So… What’s Right for You?
If you’re unsure, here’s my quick-fire cheat sheet:
Just getting started or need a refresh? 👉 Mini brand shoot or a spot on a Brand Mini Day.
Want variety and storytelling vibes? 👉 1-hour personal brand shoot.
Ready to level up and get serious about your content strategy? 👉 The 3-hour shoot with allllll the extras.
Still not sure? Flick me a message and let’s have a chat about where your brand’s at and how we can best bring it to life through images that actually reflect your personal brand. Big business or small business owner, just starting out or already well into your journey — there’s a shoot that’ll suit you perfectly.
