Case studies
Want to see some examples of personal branding shoots?
Here are a few of my faves!
Hannah Dossary
Shiny Happy Digital
It’s always a total pleasure to work with Hannah Dossary, a Sussex based web designer with her own business, Shiny Happy Digital. Hannah works with creative small businesses to design websites that are as unique as they are.
We shot Hannah’s photos on location around Brighton. We started Hannah’s shoot in a beautiful hired room and Hannah brought one of her lovely clients along. If you want to include clients or friends in your photos, I encourage it! I’ll ask you to have a real conversation to keep the photos relaxed and natural. Hannah included plenty of fun props, including confetti and a camera. And afterwards we headed out around Brighton’s lanes for some colourful outdoor headshots.
The shot of Hannah blowing confetti into the air ended up on the front cover of Freelancer Magazine!
“Lauren was fantastic! She made me feel so at ease right away and I LOVE my professional brand photos! Highly recommended.”

Health & Performance Coach
One of my regular clients is Lauren Stoney, a health and performance coach who helps people bounce back from burnout, anxiety and chronic illness.
For Lauren’s most recent shoot, she wanted to inject humour, personality and quirkiness into her brand photos. She chose a fantastic range of props, including a Sherlock Holmes outfit, a replica brain, a mountain of paper ‘admin’, and a giant inflatable boot, amongst other wonderful things! This allowed us to get really fun and creative on the shoot. We chose two different venues; the Brighton co-working space where Lauren is based, and a park. I loved working with Lauren to create different scenarios in her photos, which she has used to tell stories about the transformation she offers her clients. For example, the mountain of paper represents ‘overwhelm’. The giant inflatable boot illustrates the firm but compassionate way in which Lauren motivates her clients. It’s been a joy to see Lauren bringing her social media posts to life with these creative and unique brand photos.
“I worked with Lauren for a recent personal brand photography shoot and it was honestly the best and most fun experience. It’s not always easy being centre stage, but Lauren brought so much of her skill, creativity, intuition and words of encouragement along the way – it was an absolute joy.
It’s so important to work with someone who you have good rapport and connection with, and Lauren is not only brilliant at what she does, but just so good at putting you at ease and bringing a natural ‘flow’ to the experience.
Thank you so much Lauren – until the next one!”

Charlotte Young
Copper Moth Design
I loved working with Charlotte Young, a Sussex based graphic designer with her own design studio. Charlotte started Copper Moth Design in 2017 after seven years of working in a range of design agencies in London. Her goal is to provide a direct designer to client service.
We shot Charlotte’s photos on location around Brighton. You never need to worry about having a location for the shoot - I will work with you to find the perfect shoot venue for you.
Charlotte wanted photos of her working and engaging with her clients, as well as some relaxed headshots she could use in her marketing, and to supercharge her social media. We shot the first half of the shoot in a beautiful hired room in Brighton’s lanes. For the second half of the shoot, we headed outside to ensure we injected plenty of colour and personality!
“Lauren is a wonderfully talented photographer who was able to capture some fantastic new photos for my business. She made me feel incredibly at ease when I was feeling uncomfortable, and that really shows in the final product. I really recommend Lauren.”
