New and Improved Branding Sessions | Houston Branding Photographer

Tara Flannery is a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP) and Craftsman based in Houston, TX. Tara Flannery Photography is now providing New and Improved Branding Sessions. See more branding images in the gallery. Contact me to book your branding session today!

BRANDING SESSIONS

Branding sessions are becoming popular with both small businesses and larger corporations. And for good reason! This session is designed to create an in-depth visual marketing campaign resulting in targeted, useful images for your brand. This session goes beyond the traditional headshot to include full body shots, products, services, interactive shots, and much more. We can even incorporate your family, your pet, a co-worker, or customers into your session. These highly personalized images showcase your personality and brand.

Your website could utilize fresh images for individual pages (Home, About, Contact, Product/Service, Headers). You can also use specific images for printed marketing materials like flyers, brochures, and rack cards. Need content for social media posting? We’ve got you covered there too.

A Corporate Branding Session with QuestCo

A corporate branding session is a great option for larger companies that need those targeted images. The CEO of QuestCo contacted me about a branding session and he had several scenarios already in mind. He organized about 10 employees for the session as well. We used several locations around the office and everyone had wardrobe changes which gave us a huge selection of proof images to view and choose the very best. The company now has a portfolio of images to pull from for all of its marketing needs.

Headshots and branding photos… aren`t they basically the same thing? 📸

Not quite! While both are meant to represent you professionally, they serve different purposes.

Professional headshots are typically more traditional and polished. Think head-and-shoulders portraits with a clean studio backdrop or a professional office setting. They`re perfect for LinkedIn profiles, company websites, business cards, and anywhere you need a professional first impression.

Branding photography, on the other hand, tells a bigger story!

We`re talking full-body portraits, candid moments, interactive shots, and photos of you doing what you do best. Branding sessions can absolutely include headshots, too, but often with more personality and environmental elements that reflect your business.

The biggest difference? A headshot shows people who you are. Branding photography helps show them what you do and what it`s like to work with you.

And depending on your business and goals, you might benefit from both!

Just a little reminder that if your professional headshot has been sitting on your to-do list for the last six months (or six years 😅), I`m here when you`re ready!

Whether you`re updating your LinkedIn, stepping into a new role, refreshing your website, or just realizing that your current headshot doesn`t quite look like you anymore, having a professional photo you`re confident sharing makes a difference.

And if the thought of getting in front of the camera makes you a little nervous, don`t worry. You don`t need to know how to pose, what to do with your hands, or how to find your best angle.

That`s what I`m here for! I`ll guide you through the whole process so you walk away with photos that feel natural, professional, and most importantly, like you.

One of the sweetest parts of being a photographer? Getting to watch families grow right in front of my camera. 🤍

I’ve had the privilege of photographing this beautiful family several times over the years, and now their family has grown to include three sweet kiddos!

It’s so special to look back at previous sessions and see just how much has changed. New little faces, growing personalities, and so many memories made along the way.

And honestly, this is one of my favorite things about what I do.

I have families who come back year after year for updated portraits. I’ve photographed kids as they grow up, celebrated their senior year with them, and even welcomed some of those same familiar faces back for professional headshots as they begin their careers.

Getting to be a small part of all those different chapters in someone’s life is something I’ll never take for granted.

Because these aren’t just photos. They’re little pieces of your family’s story that you get to hold onto forever. 🤍

And to every family who continues to trust me with those memories, thank you. It truly means so much!

🍂 Still hoping to capture your family this fall? It’s not too late! I still have a few weekend family session openings available before the season wraps up.

Head to the link in my bio to reserve your session. I’d love to capture this chapter of your family’s story, too! 📸

Well, since I`m already here… we might as well get those family photos on the calendar! 😂📸

I know how it goes. You keep saying you need to update your family portraits, but between school, work, sports, and everything else on your calendar, another year somehow slips by.

And suddenly, the kids are a little taller, everyone`s a little older, and you`re still looking at the same family photo from three years ago.

Here`s your reminder that family photos don`t have to be complicated or perfectly planned.

I`ll help you choose a location, coordinate outfits, and guide you through the session. And yes, we`ll get those classic everyone-looking-at-the-camera photos, but we`ll also capture the laughs, the cuddles, the silly moments, and all the little things that make your family YOUR family. 🤍

🍂 Still hoping to get family photos done this fall? I have a few weekend openings left, and I`d love to get your family in front of my camera before the season wraps up!

Sometimes I have to stop and remind myself just how lucky I am to do what I do. 🤍

This beautiful client recently found me through Instagram, loved my work, and decided to make the drive all the way from College Station to have her professional headshots taken with me!

And honestly? That means more to me than she probably realizes.

Whether you`re a new client who found me through social media, someone who was referred by a friend, or a familiar face who`s trusted me to photograph different chapters of your life over the years... I am SO grateful for every single one of you.

I`ve had clients come to me for their senior portraits, return years later for family photos, and then come back again when it`s time for professional headshots or branding photos.

Getting to be a small part of so many different milestones in your lives is something I`ll never take for granted.

And to everyone who supports my business in ways you might not even realize... thank you.

Every like, comment, share, recommendation, and kind word helps my work reach someone new. Sometimes that person is right down the road, and sometimes they`re willing to drive all the way from College Station. 🥹

So whether you`ve been in front of my camera, shared one of my posts, or simply cheered me on from the sidelines, please know how much I appreciate you.

Thank you for continuing to choose me, trust me, and support this little business of mine. It truly means the world. 🤍

Meet Noah... 👇🏻

Noah recently came in for a personal branding session, but not because he`s launching a business or promoting a service.

He`s written a memoir! 📖

He wanted a collection of professional images he could use on his website to promote his book, with the possibility of using a few for his author portrait inside the book or on the back cover.

And this is such a great example of why personal branding photography isn`t just for business owners!

Authors, speakers, artists, coaches, and creatives can all benefit from having a professional collection of images that represents who they are and what they`re working toward.

Think about it... one branding session can give you photos for your website, social media, promotional materials, press features, professional bios, and so much more.

It`s about having a variety of images that tell your story, help people connect with you, and give you the flexibility to show up professionally wherever your work takes you.

And that`s exactly what we wanted to create for Noah!

Whether you`re writing a book, launching a new project, or building a business, I`d love to help you create images that support your next chapter.
