Brand photography in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire
Personal brand photoshoot with Sara from Inspire Pilates
A little while ago I headed down to Honley, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire to have a personal brand photoshoot with the lovely Sara from Inspire Pilates. I have photographed Sara previously and I know she doesn’t like to faff about so it was straight to work.
Clients are great when they know what they want.
Sara knew exactly what she wanted from the photoshoot. Was it a personal brand shoot? Well, I guess so as it was Sara performing lots of different pilates positions in her own studio. We started off inside of the studio where Sara quickly (as I said, no faff) moved from position to position. For these images, I wanted to shoot from a low angle and use just natural light which was coming in from the high windows on the left-hand side.
Know when to move on.
With someone like Sara who wants the brand photoshoot done quickly, you need to know when to move on. As I’ve done this for over ten years, I have a good idea of when I have what I need. So it was time to move to the next area.
We then moved into a different room where all of her Pilates Reformer machines are situated. To me, they look like a medieval torture device but Sara ensured me that they are very safe and easy to use. I repeated the process that I had done in the previous room, lots of pictures of Sara performing manoeuvres on the machines.
We can’t hide forever
Sara like myself doesn’t like having her picture taken so as soon as I mentioned taking some pictures of her (not demonstrating Pilates moves? then her confidence shrunk a little. I hate having my picture taken so I can only emphasise with my subjects, but we always manage to create something. After a quick five minutes of finding some locations outside and the photoshoot was done. I’ve seen Sara using some of the images on social media so that always makes me happy.
