Vision Consult
Clarify your online presence!
Success in this industry demands more than just technical skill—it requires a killer portfolio with a clear vision and a compelling online presence. The Vision Consult is a deep dive into your current body of work, website, and key social media accounts. You’ll gain honest insight from an unbaised perspective on your strengths and your weaknesses, paving the way for growth. This is not an edit of your current work. It's a comprehensive evaluation of your technical skills, online presence, and your vision as a creative. The Vision Consult gives you a solid foundation upon which to build a robust marketing plan and solidify your unique brand.
How it Works
-
Kick things off with a detailed questionnaire designed to get you thinking about where you want to go. We’ll follow that up with an intro get-to-know-you call that digs deeper into your vision for your business, biggest struggles, and goals.
-
After our intro call you will submit a comprehensive overview of your current body of work (roughly 400-600 images). This collection may include past shoots you’re proud of, new work you haven’t shared, or even projects you have no idea how to integrate into your portfolio. The aim is to provide a broad overview of your photographic identity and interests, allowing for a thorough evaluation and tailored guidance.
-
Through examining of your submitted body of work, I’ll identify your photographic strengths, areas for improvement, and creative nuances. This analysis delves into technical aspects, retouching, and post-processing, aiming to provide an unbiased review that helps you confidently play up your strengths and identify areas for growth. The goal is to guide you in curating a portfolio that speaks authentically to your vision that will appeal to the clientele you are after.
-
Beyond the images, I dive deep into your website, a pivotal element in conveying your photographic vision. This includes evaluating the layout and organization, overall design, branding, and your biography to ensure they align with your intended client base. If you are just starting out I’ll make recommendations for your first website so you have something to work towards. The insights gained from both the analysis of your work and evaluation of your website are compiled into a detailed PDF document, offering a roadmap for immediate improvements and future considerations to strengthen your online presence.
-
The journey concludes with a 75-minute Zoom call. During our call, we’ll discuss my findings and your questions, leaving you empowered with a clear vision and actionable steps to advance your career.
This entire process generally takes 4-6 weeks.
