Personal Brand Photography shoot with Claire Dale for her new Venture, Holden Place Therapy

The Joy of Creative Collaboration and Expanding Networks.

Kim Waters (graphic designer & branding specialist) asked if I’d photograph a client she was working with. Kim was creating the website for Claire Dale's new therapy business, Holden Place Therapy: https://lnkd.in/eVApu3CU  Branding by Fran Holden www.franholden.design 

After an initial discovery call with Claire, we created a shared a mood board via Pinterest, and honed the shot list over several weeks. So much planning had gone into this - I was a bit nervous before the shoot, as a photographer there is always that pressure to perform. People are counting on you, it's always fine - but I still occasionally get nervous. It was all brilliant though, Ruth Marcella of Orchid Beauty took care Claire's hair & makeup - I now recommend Ruth to all my clients.

Claire, Ruth & I all got on brilliantly, and as a team we got through the shoot with ease and a lot of laughter. Claire was delighted with the results. See below link to Claire's website & see how the images are working for her.

Locations included Hope Street Hotel (thank you Jan Morris), The Art School Restaurant (thank you Harry Askew), Dragon, 24 Hardman Street (thank you Andy Evans) and a few street shots in between.

The result? A versatile image library for web, print, socials and advertising.
