A brand isn’t just a name, a logo and the product range. A brand is a personality, with its deepest levels of complexity, its dreams, its values, the dressing style, the tone of voice. To be easily identifiable and stand out among the concurrence, it has to have a unique idea: both visually and conceptually. This is why the process always starts with a strategy development and only then we start thinking about the aesthetics.

The strategic branding pack ensures that you will have a confident brand ready to provide the clients with high-end experience.

01. FOR WHO

Your business has been working for some time now and is outgrowing the visual identity you put together with a minimum effort in the beginning. Which is alright, I always suggest to test out a business idea first, and when all the theories are tested—invest in a custom strategy and refined visual identity.

This package is for you, if you are ready to grow, to raise the price tag, to appear more put together and professional. To become the one of a kind brand on your market.

01. FOR WHO

Regardless of the stage of your business, it is quite normal to have questions and to need information. And I'm here for you.

I have a lot of knowledge on topics like :

• Instagram: how to make your stories interesting? How to create a real relationship with your audience? Simplification of content creation.

• Brand strategy and identity

• Photography: camera settings, creation of a photo zone, photo and video editing.

And much more.

Any problems or questions you may have with your online presence and your visual communication on a daily basis, I am here to share everything I have learned over the years.

01. BRAND PHOTOSHOOT

The secret path to your customers’ heart is not through a pack shot (plein picture of your product), but through an elaborative visual universe you envelope them with. As an art director I have a 360 vision of brands personalities which makes it easier for me to understand what exactly a photoshoot has to evoke.

/ Photography realisation

02. PERSONAL PHOTOSHOOT

Through an honest conversation I propose you to share with me where you are right now: your thoughts, fears, feelings or the sides of yourself that you’d like to uncover?

Basing on your answers we’ll create a conceptual story—just like they do in magazines. I’ll guide you to feel confident in front of the camera and get campaign worthy photos to forever remember this moment of your life.

There are cheaper designers…

On a capitalist market, there’s always someone cheaper or more expensive. I do not compete by price. I offer a custom tailored service, dedicate fully to get my clients a high level experience both professionally and personally. Make individual researches and analyses for each case and propose only the concepts that I wholeheartedly believe in.

I do not create to create, but first of all help your business to tell stories. I believe that the value and attention that I bring to your project makes it worth every cent.

Is there a payement plan?

I understand that branding is an investment that requires some savings, so I do propose a payment plan: instead of 50% advance payment, we’ll divide it in 3: 30% to begin the project, 30% in a month and 40% by the end.

There’s no predefined pack for what I want.

These packs were put together to bring an idea of my service and price range. There’s definitely no one-size-fits-all solution, so feel free to contact me to create a custom commercial proposition.
