When Bridget Fitzgerald, a talented NYC wedding and branding photographer, approached me for a branding session, her goal was clear: she wanted her brand to feel elevated, yet approachable. Bridget was looking to attract her dream clients—couples who desire timeless wedding photography, as well as businesses in need of high-quality branding photos in the heart of New York City. She wanted her branding to showcase her ability to capture elegant moments while maintaining a sense of warmth and relatability. Bridget’s dream clients needed to see both her high-end expertise and her ability to make them feel comfortable and seen in front of the camera.
As a CT branding photographer, I was excited to work with Bridget to bring this vision to life. From the very start, we focused on balancing sophistication with accessibility. The goal was to create a visual identity that reflected Bridget’s exceptional skills as a photographer while conveying the warmth and approachability that makes her clients feel at ease. I took great care in selecting locations that were both iconic and intimate, capturing the essence of NYC while keeping a personal touch. The wardrobe choices, styling, and overall aesthetic were all designed to ensure that Bridget’s brand felt polished and professional, yet warm and welcoming—a perfect reflection of her dual specialties in wedding photography and business branding.
The session itself was a mix of capturing both posed moments and spontaneous, natural interactions, perfectly showcasing Bridget’s ability to bring out her clients’ true personalities. For her wedding photography, we highlighted the elegance and timeless beauty that define her work, but also captured her down-to-earth nature, showing potential clients that she is someone they can trust to document one of the most important days of their lives with care and attention. The final images were crafted to speak to couples who are not only looking for stunning photos but also an effortless, comfortable experience throughout their wedding day.
We also made sure the branding side of Bridget’s business was front and center. The images from the session communicated Bridget’s expertise in working with businesses and entrepreneurs, showcasing her as a confident professional who understands the power of storytelling through photography. Whether for corporate headshots, product photography, or lifestyle shots, Bridget’s branding images now reflect her ability to elevate any brand while still keeping the process approachable and client-focused. Through our collaboration, Bridget’s branding is now in perfect alignment with her goal of attracting her ideal clients for both weddings and business branding, and I’m thrilled to have helped bring that vision into reality.
I can’t wait to work with you again Beautiful Bridget, Xx
