Personal Branding, Social Media & Online Dating Photography

 

Time for the real You on Social Media and Dating Websites! Personal Branding is what raises your standard and radiates who you are and want to be received.

If you think it might be an overkill to have professional photos of yourself taken for Social Media or Online Dating … think again!

Seatbelt on as here’s my theory..

For what it’s worth, using professional photographers really makes a marked difference in your visibility and response rate. It’s about taking the time to make the most of your looks and accentuating your features and personality by asking for help from a specialist - and that’s only one facet - the outer shell!

Remember, these photos are intended to represent you doing the things you love and being who you are, not to fool people into thinking you’re someone that you’re not or by being too generic. Focussing solely on your looks rather than your essence is wasting your time with attracting (or even hanging out) with the wrong people, those that are not your tribe! This facet of the photo session is what sets it apart from simply snapping an outer shell to capturing your essence! Instead of pictures faaaaaaaaast, focus on quality.

Quality of thought and Quality time - don’t forget, slooooooow wins the race!

Together, we will spend time on a journey of discovering what it is, that makes you YOU. Are you into classic cars, mountain biking, the Arts? Do you love hanging out with friends and socialising in town? Do you prefer your own company, have green thumbs and a very grateful garden? Are you a gamer, dog lover, movie buff, shopaholic, love your sports or a bit of a thrill?…the list is limitless if you asked me…I’m here to guide you, to help you, to challenge you, to maybe even ask some big questions. Depending on where you are on your journey, I’ll tune in with you.

Investing thought into this and taking it serious will catapult your life onto a whole new level of meaning…It’s crucial to know who you are and what you want, to know when you found it. Together we have fun that’s funny and make time, when you may have thought you don’t have it. Being you deserves your time and attention, finding your tribe deserves your time and attention and attracting your future partner deserves your time and attention - in that order, don’t you think?

I’m gifted (oh dear!) at finding the things that make your eyes light up! Stay true to yourself - live a little or a whole lot - hang out with me for an afternoon and end up with a collection of images that you, your tribe and your future partner will say to: “Woah, can I have more of you?” (pun taken…less won’t be an option here)

The rest will be up to you..although I have always some 5c worth of thoughts that love to get voiced if you really want to hear those too…but you’ll be better off sticking to my visual art, the one that gets you on your way to new adventures with people that were waiting just around the corner…so chop chop, let’s get started, fun is guaranteed !

Make this life magical - You need to believe it first, to see it!

 
 

When it comes to wearing makeup for your headshots, it should be very simple but very well done. If you normally don’t wear makeup then it is silly to pile it on for your headshots. The headshots would look unnatural. If you never wear Makeup but would feel more comfortable wearing some that accentuate your features in a subtle way then book this in with me.

Your make up should help the viewer focus on the eyes and the mouth which are the essence of a great portrait. 

I recommend to wear what you would wear on a normal day but more polished.

You want to look like yourself.
