Affordable Brand Shoot Mini Sessions: A simple way to show up in your business
If you’ve ever thought “I know I really need some decent photos for my business, but I don’t have the time or budget for a full shoot” …
That’s why I came up with my Brand Shoot Mini Sessions.
They’re designed to take away a lot of the pressure, while still giving you a set of images you can use on your website, your social media, your marketing, your emails… all the places your business shows up.
So, what are Mini Brand Sessions?
In simple terms, they’re shorter, versions of a brand shoot, (but without a bespoke location and pre-shoot guidance) and are only available on a few selected days throughout the year.
I hire a lovely venue, set everything up in advance, and then offer back-to-back time slots during a set day.
You just arrive at your booked time, and we make the most of those 20 minutes together.
They are relaxed, guided, sessions, for business owners who don’t have/need a specific location or require bespoke guidance. They are aimed to give you a small number of up to date images.
Why book a Mini session rather than full Brand shoot?
Mini sessions work really well for lots of different people who have a business, especially if:
You need a quick refresh
Maybe your photos are a bit out of date, or you’ve changed direction slightly and want your images to reflect that.
You’re just getting started and don’t have the budget
If you’re at the beginning of your business journey, this is a great way to build your image library without a big upfront investment.
You don’t need a huge library of images (yet)
Sometimes you just need a handful of strong, natural photos to get going.
You’ve been putting it off
You know it would help… but it keeps slipping down the to-do list. Minis are a really easy way to finally tick it off.
What to expect from a Mini Brand Shoot session
Each mini session with me includes:
- Short questionnaire & Mini shoot guide with tips to make the most of the session (followed by a personalised email with a few tips specific to you)
- A pre-planned, styled location
- A 20 minute shoot
- Gentle guidance throughout
- 5 professionally edited images (with an option to purchase more if wanted)
It’s all designed to be simple, supportive, and actually enjoyable.
I had one of Fran’s mini brand photoshoots. She was lovely and immediately put me at ease. It was definitely something out of my comfort zone but the whole experience was fun and easy. She was prepared with a whole host of potential poses and ideas and guided me through each shot effortlessly. I received a large range of photos to choose from and am very happy with my final photos. Thank you Fran!
How do I book?
As Mini sessions are not available at all times, I announce them on my social media channels and through my mailing list, along with the booking link that is active at that time.
You can see at any upcoming dates or be added to the waitlist here.

Frequently asked questions
Are brand shoot mini sessions suitable for camera shy business owners?
Although I recommend Personal Brand shoots for nervous professionals (as we work together before the actual shoot, so you know what to expect – and you also get to know me which also helps you to relax). I have also done Mini sessions for people who aren’t comfortable in front of the camera.
Short sessions, like the Mini’s can feel much more manageable and can sometimes help build your confidence too – especially when working with a friendly photographer (like me 😉) and I’ll guide you the whole time so you’re not wondering what to do!
How many photos do I get from a Mini Brand Shoot?
This can vary depending on the photographer, location, etc, sometimes it may be 2 or 3, some may offer 8-10!
With my current Mini Sessions (May 2026) I offer 5 images.
Why invest in Professional Photography for your business?
If you’re showing up online (which most of us are), your images are often the first impression people get of your business.
Professional images help build know, like & trust and build a connection with your audience – and can also give you much more confidence too!
A single photo can say so much about who you are and what you stand for, often before you’ve even said a word.
Where are your Brand Mini sessions held?
I tend to change around locations to help give a bit of variety and feel to people’s images. However I try to find venues where we can capture a couple of different looks – relaxed/lounge type settings and desk/office type settings.
They are usually around the Swindon area.
