Are you a maverick business? Then you will LOVE a maverick branding shoot!
So thrilled to share with you a preview of the forth shoot, working together, titled, ‘Undercover Agent'.
Firstly it's a total joy to work with regular 'client-friends'. Clients who you work with regularly. They are still clients but they become friends also. They become hybrids.
You watch them grow and develop visually from the sideline. You are instrumental in paving their visual journey online which grows their connection and impact and therefore their client base.
Every time they need to make new visual statements, they come to you with a fresh pack of ideas and an intriguing and exciting brief to describe a place in time they want to illustrate online.
They trust you with their vision. A vision and visuals that will grow their business. They describe an idea and aspect in a visual language. Then we discuss it and determine how we will make it together.
As a brand photographer, I am also an 'Undercover Agent', seldom seen , working behind a door, in a quiet space providing clients with the visual tools to survive and thrive. A ‘behind the scenes’ collaborator and visual supporter. Nickies shoot was the forth shoot taken in a long line of working and developing her visual brand together.
Nickie is a charismatic HR law and business services CEO. She helps board directors plan and implement people strategies.
Nickie IS an 'Undercover Agent' for her board directors and clients.
And so her brief to me was to capture strong visuals of her in the role of an intrinsic support mechanism to her clients, under the line of vision, off grid to view.
I love an exciting brief. It will gain you more attraction.
I love that all my clients are disruptors in their sectors, creative thinkers, mavericks, who sit left of middle. In doing so they shine harder.
These kinds of Leftfield shoots illustrate your charisma. They make your more magnetic to clients.
Firstly a story board to pin a theme. To get it right for you.
Undercover Agent , the shoot, describes visually the working world of the business service provider; seldom seen, impactful, works away relentlessly for the glory and success of others.
You will pass her in a lift, on the way to a board briefing, quietly on her phone checking a few last minute notes.
And so our photos reflect working alone in quiet spaces, lifts, stair wells, hands to the camera, to ward off prying eyes. Its a playful brief for someone courageous enough to make and use it with flair in a business forum.
Thank you, Nickie Elenor , for an awesome shoot as always. An incredible undercover brief that I just loved unpicking and illustrating. I love my collaborative relationship with you!
Photos illustrate :-
You might pass her in a stairwell, quietly climbing her way to the top floor.
You might just catch a glimpse of her as she enters a glass fronted corporate office.
She is confident in a highly relaxed way.
She is quietly disposed, usually in a state of perpetual flux and communication.
Or sat in solitude and contemplation.
She is in her comfort zone. Below the radar.
