Personal Branding Photography
Making your business shine bright
Brand photography
Great brand photography helps people understand not only what your business does, but who you are, what you stand for and what it feels like to work with you.
I work with personal brands, founders, business partnerships, growing teams, agencies and purpose-led organisations across Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, London and throughout the UK.
From a focused personal brand shoot for one or two people to a complete company image library, workplace photography or an agency-led commercial campaign, every commission is shaped around the people you need to reach and the story you want to tell.
Your images might be created for your website, social media, LinkedIn, PR, recruitment, editorial coverage, printed marketing or a wider brand campaign. One-off shoots, regular content sessions and annual brand photography partnerships are all available.
As a qualified marketer with 15 years’ experience as a professional photographer, I bring both creative and commercial thinking to every shoot. We will consider how and where your photographs will be used, what they need to communicate and the range of images your business genuinely needs.
My approach is warm, collaborative and gently directed. I understand that many people would rather visit the dentist than stand in front of a camera, so I take time to create a relaxed experience in which individuals and teams can feel comfortable, confident and properly represented.
Kathryn was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She was proactive in visiting our Henley-on-Thames office ahead of the shoot to plan and get a feel for the space, and her friendly, bubbly personality helped create a relaxed atmosphere that really came through in the final shots. We came away with a great set of candid, natural images we're looking forward to using. Would highly recommend and would definitely work with her again. Dan Sturrock - Screaming Frog

The Visibility Edit A one-to-one Brand & Marketing VIP Day
A focused one-to-one day to turn marketing overwhelm into clarity, practical action and renewed visibility.
When you are busy running your business, your own marketing can quickly slip to the bottom of the list. Perhaps your business has evolved but your website, social media and brand imagery have not quite caught up, or you have plenty of ideas but no clear plan or time to put them into action.
This is a private Brand & Visibility VIP Day combining strategic thinking with practical implementation.
Before we meet, you will complete an in-depth questionnaire and I will review your website, social media, current brand imagery and relevant competitors. We will then spend a focused day together at a carefully chosen venue, near Henley on Thames, with lunch or brunch included.
Together, we can explore your positioning, ideal clients, most valuable services, key messages and visibility opportunities. We will identify your priorities, develop a realistic plan and complete selected tasks together while you have my full attention. Bring your laptop—this is a working day as well as a thinking day.
Your VIP Day includes:
- In-depth pre-session questionnaire
- Review of your website and online presence
- Visual brand and photography audit
- Competitor observations
- One-to-one strategy and brainstorming
- Practical implementation session
- Lunch or brunch and refreshments
- Personalised 30-, 60- and 90-day action plan
- Follow-up accountability call
This can be booked independently or alongside one of my brand photography collections.
Introductory investment: £1,250
A limited number of VIP Days are available each month. Please get in touch to arrange an informal, no-obligation conversation.

Amazing images
They are wonderful
What to expect
Before you commit to anything, you can arrange a no obligation call. You’ll tell me all about your business and I’ll tell you what I can do to help you take it to the next level. If you decide a personal branding shoot is for you, I’ll send you a booking form and then an in depth questionnaire to complete and we’ll use it to design your shoot together.
We’ll work out the style, locations and even your hair and make up and I’ll share my little black book of trusted venues and suppliers with you.
To get the most out of your shoot, you need to be comfortable and relaxed. You’ve done the hard work, now it’s time to have fun. I come armed with a shot list (so we make sure we capture everything we need to) and a back-up plan so things run smoothly, no matter the weather. And if you’d rather be behind the camera than in front of it, don’t worry. I’ve been there and have plenty of tricks to keep you calm.
I hope you’ll be as excited as I am to see your images and I’ll send you a sneak peak the very next day. You’ll receive your full gallery of at least 100 digital images (Illuminate collection), within 6 working days.
