3 Reasons Why You Need To Hire A Stylist For Your Personal Branding Session by Nashville Branding Photographer Dolly DeLong

Very recently I had the opportunity of getting to work alongside Personal Stylist Emily Goodin of Effortless Style, for a Nashville based branding photography session featuring Daughters on Fire (which I will be sharing in another blog post) but I wanted to highlight some key reasons why hiring a stylist for a personal branding session elevates the experience of a session. Scroll down to read the top 3 reasons!

1) A stylist will help you communicate the message of your brand to your clients

If you are at a point where you know you need a personal branding session to not only boost your presence on social media, but also build a cohesive presence online, and start attracting your ideal clients, it does start with a good wardrobe. Yes, as silly as that sounds, sometimes what you wear communicates a message to your audience. So before you start planning out your personal branding session, start thinking about what outfits you are going to be wearing in these photos! If this is stressful to you, then this is where a stylist can serve you in tremendous ways!

2) A stylist will help save you time and energy finding the perfect outfit that compliments your body on camera

Because your outfits are not only well-fitting but communicate the message of your brand, your confidence will show in your photos! This, in turn, will continue to elevate your brand!

Also, I have had clients (and I am guilty of this as well) bring outfits that are adorable, but because they didn’t think through how the outfit would complement their body type, the outfit made them look formless and shapeless.

Hey, it’s okay if you have curves (it’s a part of having a body after all) so I would encourage you to find outfits that not only compliment your body type but when you work with a stylist he or she will help you find outfits that will elevate your body type! Talk about a win-win!!!!

3) A stylist will adjust your look for the photo shoot

It could be an “undergarment situation”, an accessory out of place, a wrinkle that needs to be straightened…whatever the detail might be, your stylist will be your “best girlfriend” at the shoot to fix those little things that can sabotage a great photo!

These photos are going to be an investment, so why not have the stylist stay with you for the allotted amount of time to help you style the shot as well (a lot of the stylists I have worked with in the past have stayed the entire shoot day and it has tremendously impacted the branding session in the best way!)

Summary

A well-styled, well shot and well-planned shoot has the power to raise or change your brand profile, draw in new leads, and increase your profit. In short, you are investing in the future success of your brand by hiring a stylist!
