“ It was fun! Renee did a wonderful job of helping me relax and have a good time through the shoot. The true enjoyment showed in the photos. She also picked great locations I enjoyed being in.

Working with a true professional who helps plan everything out around clothes, makeup, hair, poses, and locations makes for a smooth day. You can simply relax into it and be held. That support is integral to getting good photos in the end…In fact, you may get so many it's hard to choose!

The Essential Marketing Shot List – Photography by Renee Vernon– headline

You have the power to decide how you will show yourself to your clients, your partners, even the world at large. My clients don’t just want pretty pictures. They want to tell a story, evoke emotion and ignite action.

“Ok, Renee,” you may be saying, “but how do I know what kind of pictures I need?”

I did extensive research and worked with some top designers. I discovered there is a secret world out there involving image placement, typography, funnel shots, and yes, even your fabulous headshot or profile pic will have a different vibe depending on myriad factors. Below is an example moodboard of a variety of “Essential Marketing Shotlist” type photos we may take, but tailored to your particular brand marketing and/or social media needs...

The Essential Marketing Shotlist – By Photographer Renee Vernon

The Essential Marketing Shotlist

Types of essential marketing images people often have as part of their business or personal branding: 


  1. Headshot / Profile Picture

  2. Upper + Full-Body Portrait

  3. Long Header Banner (for website hero images & articles)

  4. The Funnel (This is when an eye-gaze or hand gesture may point towards key messaging text or logos)

  5. Your Story / Workspace / Home

  6. What it feels like to Work With You

  7. “This is Me” Casual / Fun / Instagram

  8. “Show Your Personality” / Creative / Artistic Side


You can have a site with just one photo if you choose. I personally feel it’s nice to see a bit more of you and what you do, in your element. Let’s face it, this is the age of Instagram and FB and people want to know as much as they can about you! Think of your image as your personal calling card. Sometimes we think people are only interested in our work or resume, but often on a website it’s the “About” page that is first looked at. People want a sense of what it’s like to work with you.

Images that help others get a sense of who you are, and what it may be like to work with or hire you…can put them at ease. It encourages customers / clients to contact you.
It’s my job to bring you out of hiding! What magic, what unique gifts do you and your company possess? If you are not sure what kind of a look or vibe you want to portray, I can help you with this as well.

Our session will provide you with personality-filled lifestyle photos that capture you in a natural way.


And the best part?

You’ll have fun while doing it too — guaranteed!


Let your soul take flight!

With Love, xoxo
