DO YOU FEEL OVERWHELMED BY THE PROCESS OF PLANNING A BRAND SHOOT FROM START TO FINISH?
I get it! The abundance of resources can be overwhelming and frustrating, leading to wasted time and money on repetitive information.
ARE YOU STRUGGLING TO UNDERSTAND THE STEPS NEEDED TO CREATE A GALLERY THAT TRULY REPRESENTS YOUR CLIENTS' BRANDS?
There is so much involved in planning a successful brand shoot. You may not know what you're missing.

Planning a brand shoot can be challenging, especially if you're just starting out. In the initial shoots, every client is a test - from plans and emails to delivery and tips. But no client should be a trial run!
I've been there. When I first switched to brand photography, I spent YEARS and lots of $£ on LONG courses and faffing with my website, unsure of how to improve.
what I really wanted was useful, bite-sized, information that helped my business and confidence grow that didn't require a huge commitment or a massive bank account.

let's raise the brand photography bar together
Hello! I'm Kayleigh - a compassionate international brand and retreat photographer & mentor for kind humans.
I'm usually tripping over a half-packed suitcase, trying to not spill my green tea.
I spent the majority of my twenties working on cruise ships around the world, while learning how to operate my first DSLR. My libra decision-making struggles didn't deter me from honing my portrait and lighting skills while working for a private jet tour company in my home-city of Seattle before moving to the Liverpool for love in 2019.
​
I used to feel super nervous and timid in front of the camera but after MANY years of travels and pushing the boundaries of my comfort zone, I now work my bum off to provide a holistic brand photography experience that helps other female business owners show up boldly, authentically, and confidently on camera so they can radiate big boss energy!
​
Now I'm on a mission to help other brand photographers learn from all my mistakes, trials, and errors in order to elevate the entire industry and raise the bar for brand photography so we can all uplevel, work with dream clients, charge more, and ultimately achieve more freedom in our lives!
