Building a personal brand

 

 

Good branding is of crucial importance when it comes to business promotion and development. But how about building a personal brand for yourself that is associated with you as an individual? We are loud advocates that you should never underestimate your creative power and the powerful message you can convey via personal branding photoshoots. Because when it is done right, it becomes the most valuable asset you can use to promote your business. 

Simply put, personal branding shapes the perception of you or any other individual in the eyes of the people. It is about building a reputation, creating unique self-expression, and marketing yourself. Therefore, using professional personal branding photos as a promotional tool is essential, no matter the nature of your brand. Whether you are an influencer, creator, or model, this is an excellent way to put yourself at the forefront of the business. It is all about expressing your unique sense of style, fashion, and photography and seeing yourself as your own muse when creating this kind of marketing art.

Your individualized images or content creator portraits will help your clients get to know you better. They are an excellent medium for establishing effective communication and allowing them to connect with your brand. Through fine art photography, your business will acquire a human touch and will no longer be seen as a faceless brand. This will not only build your credibility but also make you stand out in the competition pool. 

Investing in personalized branding will tell your clients that you value the relationship with them. When people buy something, it is often an emotional decision rather than a practical one. And our photography studio in Toronto is the ideal place to help accentuate your traits and spark an emotional response via a personal branding photoshoot. 

If you got inspired, you will find more ideas for your photoshoot in our Instagram.

SPRING BLOSSOM

 

 

We truly thrive on collaboration opportunities, as the projects that arise from the power of joined forces are perhaps the most successful ones. This time, we were pleased to be a part of the team who stands behind this beautiful bridal photoshoot, and we take pride in how everything unfolded.

The main idea of this mutual project was to inspire brides to wear their bridal gowns and have their makeup done once again, and surrender to all the candid feelings this experience will bring. With this black and white photography session, we aspire to open a portal back in time and capture their emotions as they arise. For that reason, we collaborated with the Morgan Model Management model agency, or more specifically, with the beautiful Polina Machok. Her elegance and divine beauty are perfectly paired with the exquisite designer dresses by The Law Bridal & Daughters of Simone – exclusively available at Silk Row Bridal shop in Toronto. Kaitlyn, the boutique owner, excelled in her expertise in selecting the most beautiful creations.

Namely, each one of the bridal dresses was as gorgeous and majestic as it came, with every detail placed exactly where it needed to be. From the silky material and intricate lace to the gorgeous veils and delicate feathers, every element created a seamless flow for this bridal photoshoot. 

But nothing would have looked as perfect as it did if it were not for the talented makeup artist Olena from Glowbyo Makeup Studio. She experimented with fresh floral hairpieces to complete her already flawless bridal makeup and created an utterly pleasing aesthetic. 

Lastly, this project would not have been as successful without Lora, our talented photographer and creative director. She worked her magic standing behind the lenses, capturing both the emotions of each moment and the magnificence of the bridal dresses. 

This bridal photoshoot was truly a remarkable and pleasurable experience. We had a lovely and productive time working as a team, and we think the results say much more than our simplified words can. 

If you appreciate how it all turned out, we encourage you to explore the wedding dresses in Kaitlyn’s Toronto bridal shop and, of course, find more bridal inspiration on our Blog.

 

Confidence is sexy

 

 

Nothing is more beautiful and empowering than a woman who radiates with confidence. Self love is undoubtedly one of the strongest attributes one can have. And is there a better way to celebrate this exuberant feeling than pampering yourself with a boudoir photoshoot?

Each of you deserves to be loved and deeply cherished, and the essence of this lies within yourself. An empowered woman is a woman who feels confident in her own skin and is unafraid to show the world all her exclusive qualities. Her worth. And to feel like this, you don’t have to be flawless in every possible way – no one is! You just have to adore everything that makes you the gorgeous, loving, and sensual woman you are and celebrate it with an intimate boudoir photoshoot.

This little venture of yours will allow you to experience just how beautiful and to empower it is to be pampered. Our female team of professionals will go to the farthest extent to make you feel ultimately comfortable in your skin. You will be gently guided and advised on what to choose for the shoot. In order to awaken the most beautiful form of self love and confidence, our team, will always help you pick the perfect outfit. From going with a simple yet tantalizing lingerie set to opting for a piece of clothing that is ultimately bold – you can choose anything that ignites your passion and soul!

Our lovely muse, Miss A., can attest to the liberating experience of indulging in a boudoir shoot. She completely surprised and enchanted us with her impeccable style sense. Emerging like a modern Goddess, she enthralled our senses with extravagant pieces and bold accessories. We were immediately excited to portray her unique style in the photos! As a result, we curated enchanting images in which she wears leather pieces, a fur coat, and iconic accessories. All these intricate details made her appear exclusively attractive and poised.

We truly hope that this boudoir photoshoot captivated your attention and that you feel encouraged to show how much you love yourself by indulging in such a unique experience.

There is only one thing that we love more than women collaborating on something creative together… And that is women collaborating and supporting each other’s businesses! There is really nothing quite like having a community that lifts each other up and encourages each other’s new beginnings! In this spirit, we absolutely love holding photo sessions with fellow women in business, creating photos for their personal brands, business sites, professional pages, and more. We know the power of good photography; it is an amazing tool not just for personal kind of empowerment but for the professional one too! We’ve met many wonderful women over the years who have courageously started new enterprises and set on new paths, and it is an absolute honor to play a part in their journeys, making sure that the first impression factor always plays in their favor with some good photographs!

Recently, we’ve had a lot of fun creating a photo series for our very own Evgenia! Some of you may know her as one of our brilliant makeup artists, who has done lovely makeup looks for our photo sessions in the past. But, since then, she has started a business that is aimed at making others shine! And not just metaphorically but literally as her salon offers different hair care services (Hair Botox for example) that dramatically enhance hair’s shine – Hair Care Pro. For her photo session, we wanted to show just what her services can do and played with some lovely studio light to display the results that the model has achieved at her salon. We opted for a nice, minimalist background so as to not deter from the main subject – the most beautiful, shiny hair we have ever seen! In the end, the photos turned out wonderfully and the model literally shines on them!

It was an absolute pleasure doing this photo session with Evgenia and we hope that you enjoy this photo series! If you would like to inquire about Evgenia’s services, don’t hesitate to reach out to her – Hair Care Pro

Lady in black

 

 

There is really nothing like a beautiful lingerie set that hugs you in all the right places to boost confidence and reaffirm that inner fire we all have within us (even if we don’t often show it). But if you add a boudoir photo session into the equation… that’s when the magic happens! How do we know? We’ve seen it happen time and time again! This is when you get to be THE lady you’ve always imagined is effortlessly beautiful, sexy, confident, and empowered, but one that perhaps you don’t always think you can be. You get to see yourself with a fabulous hairstyle, with your favorite makeup style (perhaps the kind you never dared to try to do yourself but always admired in magazines), and in a pair of heels that perhaps you wouldn’t always walk in, but makes your legs look amazing! And when you add some professionally designed posing into the equation along with beautiful light, elegant setups, and a talented photographer you get something that makes you really look twice and think “Wow, I really am quite something!”. There is really no better way to impress yourself than to push the boundaries of your daily comfort zone and be a woman you only usually just dream of being, even if only for one day! Because when you try it once, you always carry the spark it brings with you, and having some photos to remind you is also great! In fact, it can be very refreshing to browse an album and gush at yourself for once instead of random models in a magazine!

Our lovely muses can attest to this and love adding more photos into their boudoir collection! One of our returning muses Miss J. had just the idea recently, when she came to the studio to capture some new lingerie looks and settings. She picked out some really fabulous looks for her session – classic black lace sets, black leather, a little something with a sparkle, and a couple of fantastic red lace sets. In this photo set, we strived for the look of a truly decadent boudoir setting, complete with crystal chandelier, satin sheets, and Victorian furniture. Miss J. looks absolutely amazing in these settings and her personal style really shines through!

We hope that you enjoy this photo series and feel inspired to be the woman you dream of today, perhaps even to don your most beautiful lingerie!
