Client Showcase: Capturing Josie’s Brand at Simkova Media

I recently had the pleasure of working with Josie, a passionate social media manager launching her business, Simkova Media. From the start, it was clear this shoot would be special. 

Josie’s passion for helping entrepreneurs shine online, combined with her psychology background and expertise in content creation and data analysis, made her a dream client. Here’s how we captured her brand through our photography session.

Josie’s Unique Approach to Social Media

Josie isn’t your average social media manager. She stands out with her deep understanding of online engagement. Her blend of content creation experience and psychological insight enables her to craft strategies that truly connect with people. Add in her data analysis skills, and you get a social media expert who knows what works online.

Creating the Perfect Atmosphere

We started with a Pinterest board to nail down Josie’s aesthetic, and her brand words—unique, friendly, knowledgeable, dependable, and empowering—guided our shoot. The cosy, greenery-filled industrial studio we chose perfectly matched her vibe – professional yet personable. Josie was clear about needing a mix of lifestyle shots, semi-professional headshots, and plenty of filler content for her website and social media, including the essential laptop shot.

Bringing Josie’s Story to Life

Josie’s journey from the corporate world to discovering her passion for content creation during the pandemic was truly inspiring.

We captured her story through photos that showed her as both professional and approachable, with a mix of candid and playful shots that reflected her vibrant personality; working at her laptop, enjoying coffee, some playful, candid shots that highlight her vibrant an unique personality.

The Impact of the Photos

Josie was thrilled with the photos and excited to use them across her brand’s platforms. The images not only boosted her confidence (in herself and her business) but also made her website creation a breeze. Seeing clients use their photos to connect with their audience is one of the most rewarding parts of my job.

Behind the Scenes: A Creative Day

The shoot itself was a blast—filled with laughter and creativity in a beautiful industrial studio. It was a joy to capture Josie’s brand and personality.

These photos aren’t just pretty visual —they’re a key part of her brand, helping her connect with her audience on a personal level and stand out online.
