My latest personal branding insight features one of my earliest and long-standing branding clients - Sarah, designer at the fabulous It Was Made For Me. Also based in Portishead, Sarah is a creative designer and illustrator who creates a collection of really unique and colourful personalised prints. I’ve worked with Sarah on multiple shoots now for her amazing brand and I always look forward to our shoots. We have great fun creating loads of light and bright content for her creative business and over the years we've built up a wide collection of bright and on-brand images for Sarah's creative design business that tie in beautifully with her colourful branding.
" Every year I look to Ellie Lou Photography to refresh my brand imagery, as a strong social media presence is key to winning new illustration commissions. Ellie really understands how important it is for me to bring through my brand colours into her shots to maintain consistency in my marketing material. I’m really pleased with the outcome of my recent blank frames shoot, which allows me to create framed mockups of my work for current and potential customers to visualise how their finished prints might look.

A BEHIND THE SCENES LOOK AT SARAH'S LATEST SHOOT: BESPOKE MOCKUP + STOCK PHOTOGRAPHY
For this post I thought I would share an insight into Sarah''s a recent shoot where we focused entirely on creating a bank of mockup images for her designs.
As a designer of bespoke prints where you can really put yourself in the picture, an important part of Sarah’s service is presenting clients with a real-life look at their commission during the design process before it’s signed off for print. This also helps to showcase the designs in different settings for social media - from hanging a frame to gifting your personalised print! So we put together a collection of mockup images featuring blank frames for Sarah to place her designs into the frames.
The end result from the shoot was amazing and really brings Sarah’s designs to life, enabling her clients to visualise what their personalised commission will look like in real life!
We carefully planned Sarahs shoot to visualise the different arrangements for the mockup photos, using various props and backdrops with splashes of Sarah's bright brand colours. With the perfect lighting and styling in place, we got to work capturing the various set ups of Sarah's blank frames in landscape and portrait as well as come greetings cards. After being perfected with light and bright and editing, the final collection included a set of 100+ on-brand images for Sarah to simply photoshop in her designs to use for customer artwork proofs and sharing across social media.
Here's a look at the before and after images!
