The Journey to Understanding Branding
Let me share something that completely changed my perspective as a photographer. When I first started capturing branding photos in New Braunfels, I thought personal and business branding were basically interchangeable terms. But you know what? They’re beautifully different, each telling its own unique story. Let me show you how!
Personal Branding: Your Authentic Story
Think of personal branding as your individual spotlight moment. It’s where your personality gets to shine! Whether you’re a coach inspiring others, an entrepreneur building your dream, or a professional making your mark, personal branding photos should capture the real you.
What makes personal branding special:
- Your unique personality shines through
- Natural, relaxed expressions
- Authentic moments that tell your story
- Lifestyle elements that represent you
