Authentic Personal Brand: Lizzie Butler.
I am a corporate photographer helping companies develop their brand. As a personal brand photographer, I help you create an authentic personal brand. To tell your brand story and build trust with your audience.
When Lizzie came to me she was looking for images for her new website. She wanted to communicate with her audience by using authentic personal brand images.

Images Speak a Thousand Words
Being an expert in communication, Lizzie understood images enhance her words. To effectively communicate her message, she would need authentic personal brand visuals. She knew that this was more than simply a headshot.
Our initial consultation centred around her messaging. We determined what Lizzie was actually trying to communicate and how this would be seen visually.
We went on to discuss the kinds of images that she would be looking for. Also, how Lizzie would use them, and alternative images that would be useful further down the line.
I create for all my clients a bank of images for use in their media kit, on their website, social media and blogs.
Telling Lizzie’s Story In Pictures
There's more to personal brand photography than a few nice pictures of you smiling at the camera.
The images that we captured are very much like the pictures in a storybook. They support her words and help her communicate context and emotion. This initial work on her personal brand is worth investing in. Everything that follows flows from this preparatory work.
Once we had done our preparation, we arranged three photoshoots. These shoots would cover all the images for Lizzie’s branding. We split the shoots into training, consultancy, and lifestyle.
Lizzie wanted to include her work partner Chris Parker. He is an author, business consultant and management trainer. Together, they make a formidable team and, of course, have lots of fun and laughter along the way. Chris also runs "The Brain Always Wins" alongside clinical sport psychologist John Sullivan.
The second shoot took place in an office and classroom environment. This gave us scope to get images of training that Lizzie would be able to use on her blog and website.
The final shoot was lifestyle oriented. This took place at home with her loving family. Lizzie can use these to craft her brand lifestyle in her media posts.
