Frequently Asked Questions
Do you travel for brand photography projects?
Yes! I am based in New York City, but I travel regularly for brand and lifestyle projects. I photograph throughout the Hamptons, Tri-State area, South Florida, and beyond, and I’m always open to traveling wherever your brand needs me. Travel fees may apply depending on the location, and I’m happy to include them in your project scope.
Do you offer product photography as well as brand/corporate photos of people?
Absolutely! I offer both product-focused commercial photography and people-centered branding photography. Depending on the project, that can include lifestyle product images on, business headshots, business portraits, founder photos, team imagery, and other professional photos for websites, campaigns, social media, and press.
As a commercial photographer and brand photographer, I can build a mix of product and people imagery so the final gallery feels cohesive and gives your brand plenty to work with.
What’s the difference between personal branding photography and a standard corporate headshot?
A corporate headshot is typically focused on one polished, professional portrait. Branding photography, whether for your personal brand or business, goes much further. It tells the story of who you are, what you do, and how you want people to experience your brand.
Instead of leaving with ‘just a headshot’, you’ll have a variety of professional photos you can use across your website, social media, press, and marketing campaigns. My goal is to help your audience connect with your brand through these images!
What can I expect from a brand photography session with Michelle Rose Photo?
You can expect creative collaboration and a high-touch experience from start to finish. I will start by understanding your brand, your business story or the campaign brief and then help shape the story with images based on this information and any ideas from your creative team.
My background as a women’s magazine photo editor means I’m always thinking beyond the individual image and looking at how the full collection works together to tell a story. If you’re a small business or a personal brand and a ‘brand photoshoot’ is new to you, don’t stress. We can hop on a call and chat through your needs and vision, and I will help guide the way.
What types of businesses do you work with?
I work with businesses of all sizes, from founders and small businesses to established brands, publications, and corporate teams. My clients span industries, but I’m especially drawn to brands that want their photography to feel human, polished, and full of life.
