Styling and product photography: if you have ever Styling and product photography: if you have ever styled a lifestyle photoshoot or had it styled for you and something felt off, it may be the clothing. Styling plays a HUGE part of effective product imagery. Successful styling should keep the focus on the product itself, while also aligning with your ideal customer, or the aspirational customer of the brand.

You will notice a subtle difference between image 1 and image 3 (we removed the white shirt). We found that in this location the bright white detracted from the bag because the wall and bag are both so creamy off-white. It’s always a good idea to take a few minutes at each new location to evaluate style selections and make sure they aren’t pulling focus from the product. 

More styling tips to come! Do you see a difference between photo 1 and photo 3?

Before it’s spring I can’t miss the chance to Before it’s spring I can’t miss the chance to post these frozen salt flat photos from January. ❄️ This shoot was styled by the brand, and I was given a very fun moodboard and posing shot list. Icey, cold, and ringing in a new color-way in the best way possible.

You may have heard the classic, “tell a story wi You may have heard the classic, “tell a story with your brand.” While this is important for any brand, it’s more than adding an “About Us” page to your website. Photography plays an important role in communicating your story very quickly to a potential audience. My most successful photoshoots have a clear goal of showing use-case of the product, while also communicating brand identity and messaging. Next time you are planning a commercial photoshoot, I recommend taking a few minutes to scroll through the brands website & socials and see what words you immediately take away from their brand. (Example: bold, aesthetic, fun) Incorporating these driving words into your styling and shooting will allow a story to develop in your images, and will add even more value to your clients. 

What are your favorite pre-photoshoot routines to help your photos stand out?

The importance of vibe, filler, location photos: w The importance of vibe, filler, location photos: when shooting commercially there is value for your team to have photos of the location you shot without product. These can be used for instagram stories, feed backgrounds, or for layering under product centered ads or creatives. Taking a few extra minutes to grab a shot of the location adds so much more variety to a delivered gallery in my opinion. What do you think?

Product photography can be beautiful and incorporate elements of design all while remaining product focused.

A beautiful styled shoot that can be interpreted i A beautiful styled shoot that can be interpreted in many ways. But my goal was to make the viewer feel immediately grabbed by the disconnect of red water and formal attire. The way others see success and the way imposter syndrome can drown out our brains and make us feel unsuccessful.

Thank you for shooting with me always @hanahakim_ ❤️

And a big thank you to @emmawmortensen for being my favorite photographer friend and driving out to the spiral jetty with me, windows down, coasting on an empty tank to a gas station.
