Julie’s Personal Branding Session
Meet Julie, the owner of the “Clearly Pilates” studio in The Woodlands, Texas
For her business website, Julia wanted professional studio headshots, group photos of her team, and action shots using pilates equipment. She was also planning to use them on her social media accounts.
I did her headshots in my professional photography studio in Leetsdale. Julie wanted clean portraits that would represent her character, reflect her as a friendly and approachable personality, and showcase her strong business qualities at the same time. We shot several variations, saw the results immediately on a large screen, and perfected the poses until we were both happy with the variety. Julie’s favorite headshot is the first one.
The next items on our agenda were the team group shots. We moved to the Clearly Pilates Studio and started indoors as the studio has large windows that provided a beautiful backdrop. We had lots of fun coming up with all sorts of creative ideas, and it shows on the ladies’ faces. One can see that this is a group of good friends who enjoy each other's company and what they do.
When the team left for the day, we stayed with Julie to capture more of her action shots as a pilates and yoga instructor. Her presentation of pilates exercises looks effortless and easy, but in reality, they are hard to maintain and require full body strength. They take lots of hard work to master but the results are spectacular.
