Rebranding Your Lifestyle Through a Photoshoot
Rebranding photos capture a new version of you. They reflect change, growth, and intention. A photoshoot to rebrand your lifestyle is not just about getting cute photos although that is a plus. It is about creating a visual narrative that aligns with your current goals and identity. So how do you start your rebrand journey and why should you?
Why Rebranding Photos Matter
Photos communicate who you are. They shape how others perceive you. They also remind you of your aspirations. A rebranding photoshoot helps you:
- Define your personal or professional identity.
- Showcase a new chapter in your life.
- Build confidence in your new direction.
So, here is an example of a rebrand session I recently took of Cailee! We did a studio session at Lightroom LBK to capture her lifestyle rebrand journey. A few of our goals/ideas for this session were neutral colors, white background, and a little vogue style posing. Which just happens to be my favorite.
How to Plan a Rebrand Photoshoot
- Define Your Purpose
Ask yourself: What do I want these photos to say about me? Are they for personal growth, a career shift, or social media presence? - Choose a Theme
Your theme should reflect your new lifestyle. For example:
- Minimalist wardrobe for a simplified life.
- Professional attire for a career change.
- Activewear for a fitness journey.
There are so many directions you can go to reflect your theme whether you are launching your fitness journey or releasing an album. Customize your fit, props, background to fit exactly what you are trying to express through your rebrand photoshoot.
- Select a Location
The setting should match your theme. A corporate photoshoot works in an office. A lifestyle rebrand might suit a park or urban street. - Work with a Photographer
Find someone who understands your vision. Share your goals and examples of styles you like. Also, be sure the photographers editing style matches the look and vibe you are trying to convey. My personal editing style tends to lean more to the moody dark vibes. So ask yourself if the photographers style matches your own. - Prepare Your Look
Wear clothes that fit your new identity. Pay attention to poses and posture.
Examples of Rebranding Photoshoots
- Taylor Swift fit check. This is a photoshoot I did with a fellow Swiftie during the Eras Tour.
- Pride Month Sesh: This was a self portrait session I did during pride month to share a few of my favorite LGBTQ+ small businesses.
