Headshots and Branding

Branding for your business can be as simple or involved as you’d like it to be! With Tara Flannery Photography, we want to solve the problem of the digital representation of your business. With a branding session, we create a portfolio of images together that you can use for all of your marketing needs from websites to brochures. The session includes hair and makeup services and digital images. It takes place on-location so we get a good feel for space along with the gorgeous images. The branding session is more extensive and will cover more and create a broader portfolio than a headshot session.

We offer two headshot sessions. First, the Executive session includes hair and makeup services and three final headshots. Bring wardrobe changes and we can completely change the look of the images with background, wardrobe, props, and lighting. The Express session is 15 minutes and is the perfect option for someone who just needs one headshot for the company. We will choose the image together during this session and have it delivered quickly!

Recent Headshot/Branding Sessions

Here are a few recent branding and headshot session images. I absolutely love them all for different reasons and for different purposes.

This is why good branding photos feel different 👇🏻

A strong session isn’t just about showing up and taking a few pictures.

It’s about direction.
It’s about intention.
It’s about creating images you can actually use across your business.

The end result should feel aligned—like your photos finally match the level you’re operating at now.

But here’s the part most people skip…
Before you ever step in front of the camera, you need clarity on your brand.

✅ What do you want your brand to feel like?
✅ How do you want to show up?

That’s exactly why I created my Brand Personality Workbook—to help you define that first so your photos actually work for you.

It’s funny… people assume I’m just showing up, taking photos, and moving on.

But in reality, I’m rooting for my clients long after the session is over.

Hoping they feel more confident.
Hoping they land the opportunity.
Hoping their photos help them show up the way they’ve been wanting to.

Because it’s never just about the pictures.

📩 If you’re ready for photos that actually support where you’re going, you can book through the link in my bio.

You don’t just get a few photos…

You get a full set of images you can actually use—
for your website, your content, your launches, and everything in between.

Because as a coach, you are your brand.
And the way you show up visually matters more than most people realize.

My goal isn’t just to take good photos—
it’s to help you feel confident, natural, and aligned in how you present yourself.

📩 If you’ve been putting off branding photos, this is your sign—link in bio to start planning.

What does your headshot say about you? 🤔👇🏻

It can make you look:
→ confident or unsure
→ approachable or closed off
→ polished or outdated

And most people don’t realize how much that one image shapes a first impression.

Because whether it’s LinkedIn, your website, or a referral… people are forming an opinion before you ever have a conversation.

The goal isn’t just to “have a headshot.”
It’s to have one that actually reflects who you are and the level you’re operating at now.

✨ If your current photo doesn’t feel like you anymore, it might be time for an update—link in bio.

Mid-session. Camera in hand. Client in front of me…
and suddenly my camera starts throwing error codes.

I turn it off. Pull the battery. Take the card out.
Put everything back in and hope it works again.

And then it happens again.

Three memory cards failed on me during that shoot.

After that, I switched to Sony Tough cards—and haven’t had an issue since.

It’s one of those things you don’t think about… until you’re in a high-pressure moment and your gear has to perform.

📥 If you’re a photographer and want a breakdown of the gear I actually use and trust, I’ve put together a guide—link in bio.

👇🏼 But I`m curious, what cards have been working for you?

Your firm’s first impression is happening long before a conversation ever starts.

It’s on your website.
Your LinkedIn profiles.
Your marketing materials.

And whether it’s intentional or not—your photos are shaping how potential clients perceive your firm.

Outdated or inconsistent images can quietly create doubt.
While clean, cohesive, professional photography builds trust immediately.

It’s not just about looking polished—it’s about reflecting the level your firm operates at today.

📩 If your team’s photos don’t feel aligned with your brand anymore, it may be time for an update. Link in bio to schedule a consultation.
