an artistic branding garden vision
Capturing the Art of Katie's Lifestyle and Garden: A Full-Day Branding Photoshoot in Seattle from gardens, forest to beach.
Meet Katie, a passionate gardener and lifestyle blogger who infuses her artistry into every aspect of her business. I had the incredible opportunity to mentor her through my photography course, "Work of Art," and later capture her essence through a full-day branding photoshoot. Katie’s journey is a testament to the power of creativity, style, and vision in building a brand that resonates with beauty and authenticity.
Katie approached me with a clear artistic vision for her brand—she wanted her photos to tell a story, to capture the heart of her lifestyle, and to be more than just images. Together, we planned a photoshoot that would take us through various stages of her day, from her lush garden to her cozy home, through the peaceful forest, and finally to the serene beach at sunset. Each location was chosen to reflect the different facets of her life and the beauty she brings to her work.
Our day began in Katie’s garden, where she tends to her vibrant plants with care and love. The warm morning light, combined with her earthy surroundings, created a perfect backdrop for the photos. Katie’s style—a blend of rustic charm and modern elegance—was highlighted in every shot, with close-ups of her hands in the soil, watering her plants, and harvesting the fruits of her labor.
We moved indoors to capture the simple yet elegant moments of her daily life. From making tea in her sunlit kitchen to reading in her favorite nook, every detail was crafted to tell the story of a woman who finds joy in the small things.
The day continued in the nearby forest, where Katie’s natural connection with her surroundings was on full display. The rich greens and earthy tones of the forest contrasted beautifully with her soft, flowing attire, adding depth and texture to the photos.
Finally, we ended our session at the beach during the golden hour. The sunset provided a breathtaking backdrop as Katie walked along the shore, the gentle waves and warm light adding a dreamy quality to the images. Her long hair flowing in the breeze, the soft glow of the setting sun—it was the perfect ending to a day that was as much about the experience as it was about the photos.
Katie is the type of client I dream of working with—someone who brings an artistic flair and a clear vision to her business. She understands the power of storytelling through photography and embraces the idea that her brand is not just about what she does but who she is. Her style, taste, and surroundings are impeccable, and she sees the value in photos that go beyond the conventional headshot to something that truly represents her.
