What to expect at your first Visibility School photoshoot

What to expect at your first Visibility School photoshoot

So you’ve signed up for Visibility School and you’re a little bit nervous and wondering what to expect from your first Visibility School photoshoot.

Here’s what happens in your first personal branding shoot in 5 easy steps.

Step 1

At the beginning of the month of the shoot, I share where we’ll be doing the shoot over in the Facebook group. You’ll have been able to book your time slot as soon as you signed up (for all 12 shoots if you want to). For some shoots we’ll know in advance where they are going to be (often when you book your shoot time) but sometimes its a bit closer to the date of the shoot.

Step 2

I’ll share details about the location, the address, a screen print of google maps and advice on parking. I try to find places that are free to park and have easy access too.

Step 3

The next job is to give you some advice about the type of shoot it is. I share my Pinterest Board with inspiration and give you some ideas for props and outfits. If the location is indoors you’ll be able to bring an outfit change but if it’s outdoors

Step 4.

The day of the shoot arrives. You’ve got your shoot time. You’ve got any props and possibly a change of outfit and you’re ready to go.

It’s usually best to arrive a little early just in case but I always leave 15 minutes between the shoots in case anyone is late.

Plus it gives you a chance to have a chat with the other Visibility school members

Step 5.

Whether the shoot is indoors or outdoors we have a little wander around and take a variety of photos in different spots. The outdoor shoots tend to involve a bit of walking, so wear comfy shoes!

For each spot/location I find, you have a few photos, then the next person does, and then we move on. So there’s plenty of time for you to chat to other members.

I guide you through the shoot with ideas for posing, or generally just trying to keep you nice and relaxed.

Thanks again, and if you fancy trying a session without committing to the whole 12 months just click here. Once you’ve paid the £47 for one month, I’ll be in touch to book your date!

And when you’re ready, here are three ways that I can help you:

1) Visit my blog for tips on VISIBILITY.

Every week I discuss strategies to improve your visibility, get over your fear of visibility and my latest shoots.  Read here

2) Plan a bespoke photoshoot.

We can plan a shoot based on what you actually need (read more) or you could join me at a Branding Day.

3) Join ‘Visibility School’.

Visibility school is a membership group where you get 12 months of photoshoots, a fab little Facebook group and a Visibility Toolkit (new for 2022 members) . Read

Hi There!

Meet Maryanne

I’m a 40 (ahem something…) year old Yorkshire woman.

I’ve been self employed for 10 years (and a photographer for 18) and I totally understand how difficult it is to be visible in business.

Whether that’s because of a lack of self confidence, feeling a bit frumpy or the physical side effects of peri-menopause (hot sweats and forgetfulness anyone) – I promise you I’ve seen it all and still get great photos at every photoshoot.

I honestly feel so honoured when people book me, because they believe that I really want the best outcome for you. There’s no point having a fancy photoshoot if it doesn’t feel authentic to you.

My aim for every shoot is to get photos and video that you actually want to share… and I’ll be there in the side lines cheering you on!
