My Photography Studio in Cheshire

My photography studio in Sale, Cheshire is located in a leafy suburb which backs onto the beautiful Walkden Gardens. It is the perfect place to begin your ‘Hiding to Shining’ journey.

Every detail has been carefully considered with you in mind. My architect and interior designer have worked with me to create a comfortable and contemporary space with professional props, backdrops & lighting that flatters from every angle, bringing who you are to life.

If you are a business owner with no premises we can set-up a working environment to your exact requirements to perfectly represent your brand. No stuffy studio shoots here, we work together to create exactly what you need to convey your message to your clients and get you seen.

 HOW I WORK

A perfect image, isn’t necessarily one with a smile, its anything which shows your personality.

A slight smirk, glance or frowning head. I capture it all. You are what makes your business unique, so in order to attract your ideal clients and stand out in your niche you need to communicate your authenticity and professionalism through your images.

Let’s work together to define what sets you apart in your industry and craft a visual story, just for you. I am so excited and passionate about what these carefully crafted images can do for your business, right now. I hold your hand every step of the way. So, with your vision and my creative mind we come together perfectly to give birth to a gallery of one-of-a-kind photos that communicate your brand aesthetic, unique personality and brand story.

Your session includes portraits, lifestyle images, creative headshots, behind the scenes, flatlays, product & stock photography. Some showreels, graphics and social media hints & tips.

Brand photography is so important for your business. Photographs communicate massively, and combined with the right words they are a powerful form of marketing.

By working together, we will create Joyful & unique ‘personal brand images’ for your social media & website.

This article in The Huff Post, expresses perfectly the meaning and weight which Personal Brand Photography holds.

Here is an exert from the above, Huff Post article:

Money Saved & Time Gained by Using Personal Branding Photography

Lee Heyward shared with me some tangible numbers on how much she saved and gained by having a small library of personal branding photography. When she was approached by a magazine about featuring her in an article, she was able to send in photos of her choosing. Therefore she wasn’t at the mercy of one the their photographers, or their timeframe. (Tip: Sometimes the photographers at smaller magazines are students or interns.)

She gained time (about 8 hours) because:

✔️ she did not having to prepare for a session.

✔️ did not have to spend time (or money) at the salon to get camera ready.

✔️ there was no need for a photo shoot.

And, she saved money (about $250) on professional hair and make-up services because she could skip the photo session and just send her images.

Personal brand photography is a powerful tool because it can have a substantial impact on your bottom line. It’s all about understanding how to leverage your images. Lee has learned the power of the photograph. As a result, she loved the outcome of the article because she controlled the content and brand image of the photography assets that were used.
