Ep 92: How to Take Better Photos for Your Business Brand in 2024
Updated: Sep 20
In today’s visually driven world, especially with the never-ending role of social media, high-quality, intentional photos are essential to building your brand and engaging your audience.
Whether you’re capturing product shots, personal branding images, or behind-the-scenes moments, you don’t always need to hire a professional photographer to elevate your content. I share my own practical tips and techniques to enhance your photography skills using the tools you already have, even if you don't have a iPhone.
From mastering portrait mode to avoiding the common pitfall of over-editing, these insights will help you create photos that not only look professional but also reflect your brand authentically.
If you’re seeking more advice on confident brand photography, I recommend revisiting Episode 65 of the Ashley Avis Podcast, where I chat with Dana from Three Crowns Branding about how to show up confidently during a photoshoot.
