How about this adorable branding session for this cute company called Twig and Bananas? As boring as "branding session" sounds, it really doesn't have to be! Branding sessions are to promote your brand so they include product photos, model photos if necessary, and headshots. I always try to do my best to get as much information as I can up front so I can ensure I'm capturing the vibe that the brand wants to show.
When talking with Laura, the founder of Twig and Bananas, I got the sense that she wanted to portray a friendly vibe with their clothing. She makes stylish and cute clothing that can be worn for casual occasions. They have the kind of clothing that makes you want to curl up with a good book and a hot cup of tea. I absolutely loved the oversized sweatshirts with the sloth on them! They were my favorite.
All of the models were volunteers that I got through friends and some were friends I had known for a while and they were all sweet, friendly, and fun! I got them to pose and have fun in front of the camera and played some lively music just to get them to enjoy the moment and relaxed. We all had fun socializing, the models got to know each other quite quickly, and I had fun getting adorable photos for Laura's website and social media to promote her brand. Laura also took some adorable behind-the-scenes videos to make reels for Instagram and Facebook.
Product shots were done of the clothing, mugs, cups, and hats on an all-white background so the website would have a clean, crisp look and feel to it. These seem to be Laura's favorite photos as she chose a lot of them for her website. Feel free to check out all of the photos below and comment below the photos to let me know what you think!
The session was so much funand I got so many adorable photos of the models and apparel. It was fun getting to know the founder of Twig and Bananas, Laura, who is a local 7th-grade history teacher and just the sweetest mom of two adorable boys. Her husband was also extremely supportive of her and helpful during the session. They were such a great family to work with! When I finished the session I thought I would be dead tired but I really enjoyed working with everyone there and I felt energized and inspired by everyone.
If you're interested in a branding session for your business, an in-studio branding session is an excellent way to showcase your products and services. Studio sessions with controlled lighting can have a very clean look and feel to the photos for your website. It's also important to choose a photographer that you vibe with so they really understand the message and feel that you want to get across with your brand. I tend to take a lot of time speaking with the founder so I really understand the project as a whole.
