Waygood Financial Planning, Personal Brand photography

I met up with the fabulous Leanne from Waygood Financial Planning for a little mini personal branding photoshoot. Leanne is based in the lovely village of Honley, West Yorkshire. These pictures were for her business listing on the brand new Honley website check it out here – https://honley.info/

My process

When I’m doing these mini branding shoots for the Honley Business Association I’ve got between 5 – 40 minutes, some are a lot quicker than others. I always try and do a little bit of research before I visit a business so a few Google searches and a Facebook stalking and I had a good idea of what she was about. Every picture that I’d seen of Leanne in my searches the photographers had made her look scary, the typical shot from below with her arms crossed (this is OK if you are auditioning to be on The Apprentice)

I arrived at Leanne’s home and WOW!! The house is absolutely stunning so I started to get a little nervous (yes, I do get nervous even after 15 years of doing this). I was met by Leanne’s husband who made me a brew (it’s a must) and also their fab little doggy who made me feel at home. As soon as I met Leanne I knew that I could work with her, within 2 mins we were talking about all sorts of interesting subjects and I realised that she was almost as bonkers as me. For the shoot I literally wandered around her home and looked for lighting, backgrounds and areas which would make for interesting shots which showed her personality. instead of boring you with the details I will add a few comments below each picture.
