Dear Heart Led
Just wanted to let you know that I see you
I see the heart and soul behind the scenes, that goes into your heart led offerings
The self doubt and burn out (at times) as you juggle the 100 balls that is running your own small business. Getting your message and face out to the world consistently. Keeping your message and presence fresh and aligned can feel overwhelming at times.
You are inspired by others but sometimes the comparisonitis takes over in this space.
You lead and live from you heart as you weave your values and allow them to authentically guide your own life and your business.
You love what you do so much that you couldn't imagine life without your work and business.. it's part of you.
When we work together, I imagine we will connect heart to heart, as we speak the same language and are on the same page
I hope to support you so your imagery and brand speak abundantly about you, your business, your offerings... and encapsulate your SOUL ESSENCE
I do not take our crossing of paths for granted, however completely in awe of the serendipitous connections that continue to arise in life.
The idea is for your images to be a beautiful reminder to yourself that you are leading and living from your heart
The light in me, sees the light in YOU!
Soul to Soul - Eye to Eye
Love, Mel.O xo

FAQ for Heart Led Entrepreneurs
What is branding photography?
Brand photography is the art of capturing a business in an engaging and unique way. These images are used to represent your brand and offerings online, in print materials, social media, posts and more. The goal of brand photography is to build awareness and connection to your business or product that you share. Brand photography is a curated collection of professional images that visually represent your business – including photos of you, your team, your space, your products, you story and you’re the heart of your business
Hearts want to connect with other hearts, relate to others stories and feel the soul of your brand. Brand photography is more than just beautiful imagery. Its more than capturing how you work or where you work. To reveal the soul of your brand and the magic you offer, you need consistency in your look and message to gain trust, well crafted and planned photos that reveal the core of your story and offerings. Having all your visual elements working together including your colours, cohesively to maintain a strong brand identity.
what are the benefits of branding photography?
Really there are so many. You can read my BLOG - BENEFITS OF BRANDING PHOTOGRAPHY via my blog link. But really it's simple.
By capturing intentional, artful imagery of what you and your business are all about (your soul essence), you can confidently share your brand vision, value and offerings with clarity, passion and purpose so you can attract and connect with your dream clients.
So much heart has gone into your business vision and offerings - don’t get shy now, its time to share the goodness you have created and shine your light with confidence”
.
How could a brand refresh benefit me and my business?
Hearts want to connect with other hearts, relate to others stories and feel the soul of your brand. Brand photography is more than just beautiful imagery. Its more than capturing how you work or where you work. To reveal the soul of your brand and the magic you offer, you need consistency in your look and message to gain trust, well crafted and planned photos that reveal the core of your story and offerings. Having all your visual elements working together including your colours, cohesively to maintain a strong brand identity.
What is your turn around time?
After each photo shoot I aim to have your completed digital gallery delivered to you within a 3 week time frame. More often than not, I get so excited about working on clients photos that I start work on them in all my small pockets of time and get you your collection of images within a 2 week time frame. I will stay in communication with you throughout the process. This time frame refers viewable and instantly downloadable digital images delivered to you on your personal online user friendly gallery.
Please understand print products will add more time onto this for production and delivery.
What rights do I have to use the images?
Some photographers like to make this part complicated. I see it very simply. I am the eye and designer, supporting your business. I am one of your biggest cheer leaders. I want you to be able to use your images any way you wish, any way that helps you get seen, noticed so you can continue making a positive impact on others lives, just as you intended from your heart felt offering.
Once you receive your images, they will be fully downloadable. You can then use these in print products, marketing materials, website refresh, social media marketing etc.
My intention is for these images we captured together to elevate your brand and get noticed by those you wish to attract the most.
When you are ready for fresh images I will be here to support you through capturing your evolved vision and just to say THANK YOU, once you have one session you become a VIP and you will receive a discount for each session you book in the future.
FAQ about the Subscription
What if I need to end my subscription early?
Usually I can credit you in some other way eg: you are no longer running your business because you are having a baby - I can take your maternity or family photos instead
I wont be able to offer refunds but you will be able to use your credit within my services and offerings
what are the benefits of a subscription?
So many benefits. Here are a few. Package is great value as it includes lots of valuable BONUS inclusions. It ensures consistent fresh content, it will encourage you to do a year plan which always benefits a business. You will have momentum in your creative business ideas with a creative mentor in your pocket. The year support allows for your business to evolve as you do. Having a connection with me over the year, means I know you, know your brand and so that connection will assist with the flow of ideas and planning. The soul mapping session will allow you to get clear on your message, offerings, look, feel and direction.
What if I don't need all the inclusions?
I offer photo sessions on their own, and design packages on their own also, so might prefer one of those options over the subscription
The buddy in pocket and soul mapping session and canva designs are all BONUSES so you dont need to use them if you don't need that service to still get your moneys worth

At this stage this service is only avaialble to heart led entreprenuers that are based in Geelong, the Surfcoast or the Bellarine Peninsula
