Personal brand photography for attorneys, financial advisors, therapists, and other established professionals in Spokane and the Inland Northwest.
2-hour sessions · 25–30 final images · Starting at $1,250
A personal brand session is what comes after your headshot stops doing the work alone.
Your LinkedIn photo is fine, but you’re being asked to speak at industry events, and there’s no photo for the event page. You’re writing more articles, and every time one gets published, you reuse the same headshot. Your firm just redid the website, and the partners all have new photos — except you still have the one from three years ago. You’re appearing on a podcast next month, and the host asked for “some lifestyle shots to go with the episode.”
A personal brand session produces a library of 25–30 images — polished headshots, environmental portraits, candid working moments, detail shots — designed to cover everything your single headshot can’t.
Most personal brand photography in Spokane targets coaches, creative entrepreneurs, and small-business owners. Warm, lifestyle-heavy, Instagram-forward. That’s a legitimate market, and the photographers who serve it do good work.
This isn’t that.
Franklin Photography’s personal brand sessions are built for professionals whose credibility has to carry real weight — the attorney taking on higher-stakes cases, the financial advisor building a speaking practice, the therapist launching a second location, the realtor who’s stopped being someone’s junior agent and started being the listing.
The deliverable is the same category of work as your headshots: clean, professional, credible. The difference is range. Instead of one image that has to do everything, you leave with a library that does specific jobs in specific places.
Everything built into a Franklin Photography personal brand session.
A phone call to walk through where the images will go, what they need to accomplish, wardrobe, locations, and the look that fits your industry.
Studio plus one additional location if relevant. Up to three outfit changes. Every image shown on a tethered monitor as we go — you approve what works before you leave.
Fully retouched, professionally finished. Mix of headshots, environmental portraits, candid working moments, and detail shots.
Full usage rights included. Website, social, speaking engagements, press, print, paid marketing — no license restrictions.
Final images delivered within one week of the session via an online gallery you can share with your marketing team or web designer.
I handle every session personally — from the planning call through the shoot. Same photographer for every client, every session.
We start with a phone call to talk through where the images will go and what they need to do. Backdrop, wardrobe, locations, and direction all follow from that conversation.
Two hours, studio plus one additional location if needed. Every image shows up on a monitor in real time — you pick the ones that work before you leave.
25–30 fully retouched images delivered in one week via online gallery. Commercial usage rights included. Share the gallery with whoever needs it.
A few examples of the kind of imagery a personal brand session produces. Your session will be tailored to your profession and goals.
from $1,250
Two-hour session · 25–30 final retouched images · Commercial usage rights · One-week delivery. Extended sessions and multi-session packages available for more involved projects.
A headshot session produces one polished image of you, to camera, against a clean background. A personal brand session produces 25–30 images across four categories — headshots, environmental portraits, candid working moments, and detail shots — designed to be deployed across your website, LinkedIn, speaking engagements, press mentions, and marketing materials. The session itself is longer, the planning is more involved, and the deliverable is a content library rather than a single image.
Established professionals whose visibility has outgrown their current photos. Attorneys who are publishing, speaking, or transitioning practice areas. Financial advisors building LinkedIn authority. Therapists with private practices that are scaling. Realtors operating at the top of their market. Medical and dental professionals with independent practices. Anyone whose single headshot has stopped carrying the weight of their full professional presence.
Typically a combination of Franklin Photography Studio in north Spokane and one additional location — your office, a meaningful outdoor location, or a setting that represents how you work. Location is part of the planning call. For professionals whose work is more office-based, we often do the full session in-studio with backdrop and lighting variety covering the range.
Not required, but recommended for clients who want a polished, camera-ready look across a longer session. I can refer Spokane-area makeup artists I’ve worked with. For most professional clients, light grooming and clean, well-fitted clothing is enough.
Up to three outfits total. One should be your most polished professional look — the one you’d wear to meet a new client or speak at an industry event. The others can step down in formality to give the library variety. Wardrobe specifics are covered in the planning call, including what to avoid (busy patterns, trend-heavy pieces) and what tends to photograph well across industries.
Full commercial usage rights are included. Use the images on your website, LinkedIn, firm materials, speaking engagement promotion, press interviews, paid marketing, books, podcasts, print — wherever they need to go. No licensing fees, no additional per-use charges.
Most people coming in for a brand session have this concern, including the ones who end up loving the final gallery. Two things address it directly: every image shows on a monitor during the shoot, so you pick the ones that work before you leave — nothing gets delivered that you didn’t approve. And twenty years of photography experience has mostly been about helping people who don’t think of themselves as “photogenic” end up with photos they’re genuinely happy to share.
The planning call is the best place to start. We’ll walk through what the images need to accomplish, where they’ll go, and whether a personal brand session is the right fit.
