Yep - still in that phase... 🍽🍵🤷‍♀️

Need a voucher?

I want you to not AI your photos...

Even if we set aside the copyright issues, the stolen art, the environmental cost and the rising price of memory and CPUs... AI photos aren't doing you any favours.

People are less trusting of AI images. In a world where just about everything is retouched, filtered or AI'd into that same cookie cutter, too-perfect version of a person, you looking like yourself is actually refreshing. It stands out. Your grey hair or your pimple is a competitive advantage haha!

When your new client shows up to work with you and the AI image didn't accurately represent you you've got to rebuild that trust before you can even start the real work. And that's not a great way to begin a relationship, especially if you're in an industry where you expect your clients to get vulnerable.

You are the magic behind your business. YOU should be the face of it. Your actual face... not the face of someone who resembles you but doesn't exist!!

Do you know which photos your business needs to market effectively?

Not just a headshot but the full gallery of images that tell your story, connect with your audience and make marketing so much easier?

I've put together a quick guide: 5 must-have photos for business owners, detailing what each one does and how to make sure they look like you.

(and do let me know if you encounter any tech gremlins!!)

We interupt your regular programming to share some bird photos I snapped for the kiddo's grandfather a couple of months ago but totally forgot to share!

A family photoshoot for father's day?? Great idea!!

The most effective branding photos aren't always the most beautiful ones, they're the ones that get used.... New post up on the blog detailing how to use your personal branding photos with purpose, across everything:

How to Use Personal Branding Photos Effectively - Miranda Mayle Photography Pretty photos are a great start but are yours working hard for your business? Here's how to use personal branding photos strategically across your marketing.

Fresh headshots before the end of the year? Yes please!!!

I've just set up three Headshot Express dates in the Messy Garage Studio (fancy name for literally my messy garage...) in Carrum Downs on Thursday September 24, Monday October 26 and Tuesday December 5.

Your headshot shows up everywhere: your profile pics, your about page, your LinkedIn, your email signature, every collaboration... every piece of content you put out into the world really... It's doing the introductions so it should look like you.

It's just 15 minutes in front of the camera, relaxed pet-hair filled vibes, gorgeous lighting, a heap of support to feel slightly less distressed whilst the camera is pointed at you and you walk away with every share-worthy, high resolution image from your session.

Bring yourself and a second outfit - no makeover required (and no fake smiles allowed!!) Let's have you recognised from your headshot when you show up on Zoom or walk into an event :)

$190 per person. Book and pay online at mirandamayle.com.au

(And if none of these dates suit or you'd prefer your headshots out in the wild, just message me and we'll sort something out)

Your business has a story but are your photos are telling it?
Not in a "here's a headshot against a white wall" kinda way. In a "this is who I am, this is what I do, this is what it's actually like to work with me" way.

A personal brand session is 90 minutes, I come to you, and we create a full gallery of headshots, action shots, lifestyle imagery and custom stock photos all tailored to your personality, your audience and your messaging. You wear what you love, we shoot somewhere that feels like you, and I basically don't stop talking so you forget the camera is there!

It's $790 (with choose your own adventure payment plans available at no extra cost.) You get every share-worthy image included. High res, commercially licensed, ready to use everywhere.. no picking only ten.. no per-image pricing... message me to get started :)

The calendar speaks the truth... and it also applies to your photos! Not everyone has to like your photos... In fact, a photo that repels those that are not a good fit to work with you is still doing it's job!
