AUCKLAND PERSONAL BRAND PHOTOGRAPHER
PERSONAL BRAND PHOTOGRAPHY in AUCKLAND
Personal branding photography for ambitious business owners who want to look polished, professional and unmistakably themselves online.
WHEN YOUR BUSINESS HAS EVOLVED BUT YOUR VISUALS HAVEN’T
You’re great at what you do. Your photos should make that obvious.
You’ve outgrown the old headshots, selfies and generic imagery that no longer reflect the quality of what you do.
Your branding photography should build trust before you’ve even said a word. Images that communicate who you are, what you do and why you’re worth choosing.
I create thoughtful, natural images that show your expertise and personality, so your online presence finally feels like you, at your best.
WHO IS PERSONAL BRANDING FOR?
THIS is FOR YOU if
You’re a service business professional, coach or consultant who has outgrown your current online presence. You cringe a little every time someone asks for your website.
Marketing feels hard, and you’re tired of cobbling everything together from DIY images, selfies and generic stock. You want someone who actually knows what they’re doing to take the reins, guide your creative direction and create a cohesive visual presence.
You feel awkward having your photo taken and you just want someone to tell you what to do with your hands and to ensure you only have one chin in your pictures.
You get that this is an investment in strategic branding, not just a couple of quick headshots. You also understand that once you’re able to show up consistently and professionally in your business this investment pays dividends!

Hi! I’m Aimee
Great brand photography starts long before you step in front of my camera.
With a background in marketing, branding and psychology, I help you plan images around your business, your audience and where you’ll use them, so you end up with a cohesive library of photographs that’s easy to put to work.
On shoot day, expect plenty of guidance, a relaxed atmosphere and absolutely no expectation that you’ll know what to do. I’ll help you feel at ease, look professional and still look unmistakably yourself.

HOW IT WORKS
The PROCESS
We start with a strategy deep dive to uncover your marketing goals, audience, and exactly what you need your images to do for your business.
Drawing on my marketing background and years of photography experience I then handle the creative direction and the shoot-day plan.
01/ MAP THE STRATEGY
You’ll get full guidance on wardrobe, locations and what to expect. Plus access to one of the best hair and makeup artists.
By shoot day you’ll know exactly what to expect and what to bring. I’ll guide you through a shoot designed to beat camera anxiety, directing everything so that you can genuinely relax and enjoy it.
02/ STRESS FREE PREP & SHOOT
About 2 weeks later your gallery of images is delivered, beautifully edited and ready to work hard across your website, social media, and marketing.
You’ll also gain access to my best tips on using your new images for immediate business momentum.
03/ YOUR IMAGES ARE READY TO WORK
WHEN A FULL BRAND SESSION IS MORE THAN YOU NEED
WHAT IF I JUST NEED A HEADSHOT?
Got questions?
-
Headshots give you a professional portrait for LinkedIn, a speaking engagement or a book jacket.
Personal brand photography goes further, combining portraits with lifestyle, working and behind-the-scenes images that show who you are and what it's like to work with you.
Every Personal Branding session includes headshots, but a Headshot session doesn't include the wider range of brand imagery.
-
It comes down to what you need your photos to do. If you mainly need a fresh professional portrait, a headshot-focused session may be all you need.
If you're building or refreshing your business brand, a full personal branding session gives you a wider range of images for your website, marketing and other business needs.
Not sure which Personal Brand Package is right for the phase your business is in? Get in touch and tell me what you're working towards. I'll help you work out the best fit.
-
Depending on the session package you choose, you’ll get 60-100+ curated, on-brand images to use across your marketing mix.
-
Depending on the package you choose your session could range from two hours to a full day (that’s 4-6 hours).
That time invested will result in months worth of images to use, ensuring you’re not forced to recycle the same tired headshot.
-
Absolutely. You don't need to know how to pose or perform for the camera. I'll guide you through natural movement and posing throughout the shoot, so you can relax and look like yourself.
-
You'll receive a detailed prep guide with wardrobe advice and ideas to help you choose outfits that suit your brand.
I'll help you work through your options and decide what will photograph best.
-
That depends on your brand and the images you need.
We might shoot at your workplace, outdoors, in a hired location or at my home. I'll help you choose the setting that best suits your goals and budget.
-
Yes. Alongside photography, I offer separate brand strategy sessions drawing on my background in marketing and branding. I can help clarify your positioning, refine your offer and identify improvements to your website.
