Brand photography for midlife or mid story founders.
DORSET & PURBECK BRAND PHOTOGRAPHER
I could spend ages explaining why personal brand photography is good for your business.
I'm sure there are hundreds of photographers saying much the same thing. I'm not really interested any of that.
I'm interested in the moment you decide it's time to be more visible in your business.
In an AI-filled world, when so much content can be generated without a founder ever being present, it's so powerful to put yourself back at the centre of your work - to be the face, the heart, and the energy behind it. To let people see who they're choosing to spend their time, attention or money with.
Not just having a nice collection of photographs, but creating a world around your work that feels like you - one that people can recognise themselves in, and one they can step into. Your website, your social media, your Substack, your launches, your press. All those little points are where your work meets the world.
This is your next chapter, made visible.
Brand photography for your next chapter.
This isn't your first rodeo.
You've lived a few chapters. You've built something, you've grown, your work has evolved. Your life has too, and the brand you have now doesn't quite reflect who you've become on the inside.
Maybe you've changed direction, changed pace, or simply become more you. You're not starting from scratch - you're bringing rich experience and wisdom to the fore.
So now there's a gap between who you are and what your business looks like from the outside. That's the bit I'm interested in - creating images that celebrate you, your work and the world you're building.
Not a more polished version, or the version of you from five years ago.
You - visible - as the person you're becoming.

PURBECK CONTENT CREATION SHOOT
Brand photography for Purbeck's creative community
A short, local photography session for people who want a small selection of beautiful, natural images.
Ideal for local artists, makers, shop owners, retreat hosts, workshop leaders and people creating regular events, classes and gatherings in and around Purbeck.
The session includes:

30 minutes of photography
-
15 minutes of video shorts (filmed on iPhone Pro)
-
10 edited images (gallery within 1 week)
This is a local session available within 10 minutes drive of Wareham, and doesn't include any planning or foundational brand work. Extra images can be added if desired.
£300 photography + £50 video = £350

SIGNATURE BRAND PHOTOGRAPHY
Custom brand photography including creative direction
Want to go deeper? These are slower, more considered sessions, shaped around your work, personality, and brand story.
We’ll spend time getting clear on what you actually need from the images, explore your brand, create a visual direction and collaborate on a Pinterest board so we have something meaningful to work from.
We’ll choose locations, settings and moments that have something to do with your world, to translate the less tangible parts of your brand into photographs that feel natural, distinctive and useful across your website and marketing.
It’s a more hands-on, collaborative approach for people who have a bit more story to tell.
Your final gallery will be ready within 2–3 weeks, and travel is calculated separately depending on location.
Prices from £700 (one hour - 30 images)
Why choose me as your brand photographer?
As well as being a photographer, I'm a brand and web designer and creative director, so you get lots of creative experience behind your shoot.
I've spent years becoming more myself. Unlearning ideas about who I was supposed to be, letting go of the mask, and finding my way back to what feels true. As I've changed, so has the way I show up in the world.
I believe your brand is extension of who you are. That's the work I do for myself, and it's what I love helping thoughtful, conscious founders with.
For my signature sessions, I'll partner strategically with you and hand-hold you through the process. I'll take time to understand your brand and what you want your images to say, help you think through locations, narrative, styling and wider visual story. On the day, I'm there to guide and help you feel at ease so we create images that feel natural as well as purposeful.
As an introvert, I'm interested in creating the right conditions for you to feel your best.
Based in Purbeck, photographing across Dorset, Devon, Hampshire & Surrey
I'm based in Wareham and photograph across Dorset, with larger personal brand shoots available further afield.
If you're at a point where your old photographs don't quite feel like you anymore, that's probably enough of a reason to get in touch. You don't need a polished brief, you don't need to have your new brand figured out, you don't even need to know exactly what you want - we can start with a conversation about what's changing.
Your personal brand is your commitment to yourself and to the world about what you stand for.
