Headshot vs. Branding Sessions | Houston Headshot Photographer

Tara Flannery is a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP)  and Craftsman based in Houston, TX.  Tara Flannery Photography can help with how to choose headshot vs. branding sessions.  See more branding images in the gallery.  Contact me to book your branding session today!

Headshot vs. Branding Sessions

Branding sessions are the newest thing on the professional headshot scene!  It’s a very popular session right now!  There are a few key differences between a headshot and branding session at Tara Flannery Photography.  First, a headshot session is typically a shorter session resulting in fewer images.  It’s perfect if you just need that business headshot for the website.  And it is also the right option if we are photographing your entire team or company.  However, if you own a small business or operate a business that needs significant imagery for marketing (like realtors, for example), a branding session is the most efficient way to accomplish your goals!

Recent Branding and Headshot Examples

Take a look at your marketing platforms (website, print media, social media, etc.) and determine your needs for imagery.  Think about how new images could elevate your brand and really show potential clients how it FEELS to work with your company and use your product or service.  A picture is worth a thousand words (or more) and solidifies your position in their minds.

For my session with Lake Conroe Realty, Allison and I made a plan for both studio headshots and some fun outdoor group and action shots at the lake!  I brought equipment to their office for the studio shots and then we went to the lake for some fantastic outdoor photos.  I absolutely love how they turned out and she’s super excited about updating the website and marketing materials!

You know what`s quietly costing you clients? 👇🏼

Inconsistent branding.

When your team`s headshots are all over the place—different backgrounds, different lighting, some from 2019—it`s doing more damage than you think:

❌ Confuses your audience
❌ Makes your business feel less established
❌ Creates hesitation before booking
❌ Forces you to "reintroduce" yourself every time you post

But here`s what happens when your visual branding is cohesive and professional:

✔️ Builds recognition over time
✔️ Makes showing up online easier
✔️ Reinforces professionalism
✔️ Creates momentum and trust

This is why I bring headshot stations directly to your corporate events—your entire team gets updated, consistent imagery without anyone having to schedule 47 individual appointments.

One session. Cohesive branding. Done.

Ready to get your team`s professional presence on point?

You don`t need to BE confident to show up for a headshot session. The session creates the confidence.

Most professionals avoid updating their headshots because they think they need to feel confident first. But that`s backwards.

My clients are always surprised by how great their photos look—and that instant confidence boost changes how they show up in their business.

Here`s what happens when you work with me: 👇🏼

→ I guide your posing so you look natural and professional
→ I direct your expression so your personality shines through
→ I handle the lighting so you look polished and approachable
→ You walk away with imagery that makes you feel like the expert you already are

You don`t need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. That`s my job. Your job is just to show up.

Ready to stop waiting until you "feel confident enough"? Let`s create the confidence together.

Here`s the truth 👇🏻

Most professionals avoid headshots because they`re scared it`ll feel awkward, forced, or fake.

But here`s what happens when you skip it ⬇️

❌ Outdated LinkedIn profiles
❌ Inconsistent team branding
❌ Missed opportunities to build instant credibility.

Your headshot isn`t just a photo. It`s your first impression working 24/7 across every platform where your business shows up.

Ready to get this handled without the stress? Let`s create headshots that actually represent the confident professional you are.

Can you spot the difference? 👀

Same company. Same brand consistency. Three different years.

This is the power of a group composite - and it`s a game-changer for growing teams.

Here`s how it works 👇🏻

Instead of wrestling with everyone`s schedule to get your entire team in one place at one time (we all know that`s impossible), I photograph each person individually. Then I composite them together into a polished group photo that looks like everyone showed up on the same day.

Why this solves your biggest scheduling nightmare:

✅ New hire starts next month? Add them seamlessly to your existing team photo
✅ Team member leaves? Update the composite without re-scheduling everyone
✅ Remote employees? They can get photographed separately and added in
✅ Someone`s unavailable on photo day? No problem - we`ll catch them later
✅ Your team photo always looks current and complete

Most businesses struggle with outdated team photos because coordinating 15+ calendars feels impossible. Group composites eliminate that friction entirely.

Ready to create a team photo solution that actually scales with your business?
