HOW IT WORKS

book me

01. Inquiry

Fill out my contact form and tell me about your biz and what you're looking for. If you have any questions we’ll jump on a call to get them all answered and if you already know you're ready for a branding session of your own (yay!) - then we'll pick a date and start planning your session!

02. The Planning Process

Your branding session isn't one size fits all. It's completely custom to you and your business. It all starts with a questionnaire where I learn more about you, your brand and goals for your biz. Then we book your 1:1 planning call over zoom  - thats when your branding session starts to come to life!

We discuss location, outfits, props and create a key shot list with intention, attaching visuals to all the brand stories you want to tell. We also use Pinterest to share visuals and make sure we're getting the perfect vibe for you.

After our call, I’ll send you your custom shoot plan, prop list, and a prep guide so you have EVERYTHING you need for the day of! Whether you have a vision already, or no clue where to start - I've got you. 

03. Your Branding Session

Let the fun begin! During your branding shoot we’ll capture all of the awesome images we’ve spent time planning together. With music you love playing, I'll guide you through EVERY step of your session. You’ll leave feeling more confident and excited to see your photos!

04. Gallery Delivery

All the best personal brand images from our session will be sent to you within 1-2 weeks. You’ll now have professionally branded images unique to you and your biz to share!

Here's how it works!

This Is More Than Just a Photoshoot
It’s an experience. A strategy session.
A heart-to heart with your best friend.

Before the camera even comes out, I take the time to get to know what drives you and brainstorm ways for you to level up your biz and tell your story. I become an extension Of your dream
 (we’re talking vision boards and story lines for
your photos).

I'm here to tell your brand story

And if you’re a little nervous about being in front of the camera or showing up on social media, don’t worry, you’re looking at your biggest cheerleader and number one hype girl.

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK?

As soon as you decide you'd like to do a branding session - reach out! I’m typically booked 1-2 months in advance and after your branding session it takes me about 2 weeks to deliver your images via your online gallery. If you’re in need of a last minute booking reach out to me however dates may be limited.

HOW DO I CHOOSE A LOCATION?

This all depends on you, your brand, and the types of images you want to capture. I typically recommend a bright space with lots of natural light. This can be a photography studio, home, office, a friend's home, a local coffee shop, or outdoors somewhere. I will help you find a location that fits your brand, personality, and your vision! *Studio fees are not included in session rates. Travel fees apply outside for shoots outside of the GTA.

HOW WILL I RECEIVE MY IMAGES?

You will receive your images within 2 weeks of your session. They will be delivered in an online gallery sent to your email, that you can download to your computer or phone.

WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO MY BRANDING SESSION?

We’ll go over this on your strategy call, and I will create a prop list for you so you know what to bring to make your session AMAZING. Props are a great way to make your session your own and add in your brand colours. This can be anything from your laptop, notebooks, champagne, flowers, cupcakes, balloons, the list goes on…….

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DO BRANDING SESSIONS?

I suggest every 3 months, depending on your biz and the amount of content you need. Bloggers/influencers might need more content on a regular basis, while others may only want to update their website or for a product launch. If you’re looking for consistent content, the annual package is for you!

WHEN SHOULD I START DOING BRANDING PHOTOS?

This really depends on you, and where you are in your biz. If you’re just starting out and plan to have a website, a branding session is a perfect way to launch your biz with branding images for your site and to announce your new biz on social. If you already have an established business, a branding session is also the perfect way to take it to the next level!

I DON’T LIKE MY PHOTO BEING TAKEN, AND I’M A BIT NERVOUS.

First of all - that’s totally normal! Almost everyone feels that way at first, BUT my goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible…..and actually have some fun doing it! I’m your biggest cheerleader and will be there to coach you through everything (I’m your new biz bestie remember?!). I promise you, after your session you’ll wonder why you were nervous at all. You’ll actually feel more confident in yourself and your brand!!

FAQs

Client Love

I recommend Leah to everyone! She's not only an incredible photographer, but she has such a unique ability to understand your brand, your goals and your style, and make that come to life in the images. She goes above and beyond and her work is amazing. 

- sarah lambert

The photos were amazing! Well edited, clean, bright and well framed. The styling and set was literally something right off our vision board! The whole process was fantastic - such a fast turn around, thoughtful and very professional. We've wanted our photos done for a long time and we're both so happy we did this with Leah, and hope to work with her again!

- jac & jills bakes

Working with Leah is so much fun! She makes you feel comfortable and at ease while snapping the most amazing shots! She always goes above and beyond from the moment you book a session until after she delivers your pictures. Knowing I have a shoot booked with her every few months is so exciting as I never run out of content for my social media and she really gets to know my vibe and brand so the images are always flawless! 

- Karrie Russell

Not only were the photos Leah produced crisp, professional, and beautiful; Leah herself was wonderful to work with. She made me feel comfortable and confident which shows in her photography. I felt Leah was able to come into our environment and capture a perfect representation of our brand and overall company atmosphere.
