Brand Photography

Collins Collective

We began by exploring the experience this team had as well as identifying their ideal client in the current market.  This effort helped us concept and create images that would appeal to their ideal client and communicate their unique services.  Scouting locations and advising on wardrobe was an important part of our plan in creating a collection of cohesive brand images for all their marketing needs.

While getting started with a new brokerage, Collins Collective wanted to capture new imagery of their team to use in promotional materials. We specialize in capturing brand photography for the real estate industry.

"Best way to end the week getting these images in my inbox! I am blown away and so grateful. You are an incredible talent, so fun to work with, and we will definitely be working with you again as well as shouting your praises!"

Experience

Melanie Collins, The Collins Collective

"I was lucky enough to find Melissa through Instagram & instantly felt a connection to her imagery. As a new luxury lifestyle blogger, Melissa was a guiding hand during my first Branding Session in Los Angeles. Every aspect from location to props was carefully thought of & Melissa made me feel so at ease. Her knowledge of branding was so evident during the photoshoot and I couldn't be more ecstatic with the final products. The day after updating my blog with her photographs, I was contacted by a large company for my first sponsored post."

Gemma Hulbert, The Yacht Stew

"Melissa produced a stunning selection of timeless photos that beautifully showcase my cashmere scarves through a refreshingly relaxed experience. Melissa was brilliant at making me feel comfortable so that she could create beautiful images. Melissa is very generous with her time, and I think a lot of this was down to her careful preparation and planning. She scouted out the locations and she also took the time to research and understand my brand and listened to what I hoped to achieve on the day. I was very grateful to come away from the shoot with a set of photos that included close up detailed images of the textures of the scarves, portrait images, and breath-taking panoramic images. I cannot recommend her services highly enough. "

Jennie Hoag, Lois Avery

"Melissa took the time and effort to fully understand who were were as a brand and what image we wanted to portray to the world. She was able to identify what makes us unique and really captured those qualities in a beautiful way. Melissa's images really injected some soul and personality into our social media presence. Our dream clients are able to form strong connections to our brand before ever meeting us in person -- resulting in more bookings within our target demographic. Thank you, Melissa!"

Natalia Perkins, Tailor + Table

"Working with The Brand Bottega was an elevated experience from beginning to end. She prepared a detailed Photo Shoot Brief that really captured the essence of what I wanted to communicate with my new brand, and held me in a space of transformation throughout the entire process. Initially, I required more guidance to break through some awkwardness but very quickly I was at ease. Melissa is amazing! When I received the photos, they were beautiful. I feel amazing about my new brand and the photos are a very big part of the energetic shift I experienced putting my new website out into the world. I now have a solid foundation on which to stand!"

Francoise Everett, Feminine Leadership + Lifestyle Coach

"I came across Melissa’s work while searching for a brand photographer for my new business 211 to Waterloo. In addition to her amazing portfolio, I was drawn to Melissa’s approach to her work – taking the time to understand my goals, asking thought provoking questions and getting to know me. She really cared about getting to know the story behind my brand. Melissa took her time and focused on all the details. In doing so she did an amazing job of capturing the essence of my brand and creating beautiful photography that represents it. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Melissa!"

Lisa Odai, 211 to Waterloo
