Owner, Financial Connections
In addition to working through the Idea Nugget Incubator Program, we worked together to capture candid, lifestyle portraits and other branded content for his social media feeds, speaker submissions and website overhaul.
“My initial goal in working with John was to get some good, professional photos to use in place of stock photos for my website, blogs and other posts.
The Idea Nugget Generator was extremely valuable in adding to what I realize the photos could do alone and how they would add to my content. Working with John on the ING also helped me learn what different ideas, thoughts and positions I could share with my audience and how they would be valuable - it was a great brainstorm where I took copious notes for content creation.
Now I understand how content doesn’t have to be a boring set of facts - it actually positions me as a thought leader in my market.
When setting up the portrait session, we reviewed some of the ING info and decided on the shots we wanted to get - clothes, location and with what items to use in different photos. John went back and pulled ideas and helped set up the goals of the session to minimize wasted time.
John has the ability to talk to me and talk with me in a way that almost made me forget the camera, which made me much more comfortable during the shoot.
I’m now very confident that with John’s photos and guidance with the ING that what I’m presenting about me and my ideas are my authentic self and will be a powerful representation of both me and my firm.
I’ve done other photo shoots in the past. With John, I can say that he went above and beyond what any other photographer has done for me. He doesn’t just do “shots”. John captures the essence of how you work, what you believe and how our clients will best see us. I would wholeheartedly recommend John to anyone who wants to take their marketing to the next level. But I would recommend both John’s input with the Idea Nuggets and also combine that with John’s skill behind the camera.”
