Build Your Brand Successfully with Professional Photography

Quality images are essential for drawing in customers and establishing an online presence, especially at a time when most people use their smartphones for the majority of their shopping and browsing needs. By hiring a professional photographer, you can ensure that your brand is represented accurately and consistently no matter what platform your website is viewed on. In this blog post courtesy of A Blended Vessel, we'll look at a few reasons why you should hire a professional photographer for creating unique images to represent your brand.

Professional Photographers Are Experienced Creatives

One of the main reasons to hire a professional photographer is because they possess the requisite artistic expertise necessary to capture photos that will accurately represent your brand. An experienced photographer knows how to use lighting, angles, and composition techniques to create eye-catching images that will draw people in and help them engage with your brand more effectively. Their experience also keeps them up-to-date on trends, so they understand what your competitors are doing and how to avoid replicating them.

Pros Use A Variety Of Quality Tools

Another benefit of hiring a professional photographer is that they boast an in-depth understanding of various tools such as cameras, lenses, lights, props, backdrops, and other expensive equipment. They also have access to the latest gear on the market, which helps them create high-quality images with ease. With all these tools at their disposal, an expert photographer can truly bring out your brand's essence in each image they take.

Hiring A Professional Ensures Consistency In Style, Tone, and Visual Elements

When it comes to marketing campaigns for any business or brand, consistency is key. Hiring a professional photographer ensures that all of the style, tone, and visual elements remain consistent throughout each marketing campaign or across all media platforms so that customers or potential customers recognize your brand easily every time. This consistency will go a long way toward helping them remember who you are and what you stand for as a company.

An Expert Photographer Will Keep Your Audience In Mind

When looking for someone to capture photos for your business or personal brand, it's important to find someone who takes the time to understand what makes up the core values of your story and target audience before taking any shots. An experienced photographer will ask questions about these topics so they know exactly how best to capture photos that speak directly to those values and interests while still staying true to the overall message behind your company or personal brand. This personalized approach ensures each photo speaks volumes about who you are as a business or person.

Weighting For Heaven ©

Photo by Wendell S.

Dying to feel a form of weightlessness

But gravity's reality and casually our dreams fall casualty to being wait-listed

And when that weight has been removed you feel the weight lifted

Gifted with another chance to strive I tend to find myself alive in Gods promise to provide

So

I often have to sit back and remind

My mind

to keep pushing forward

There's no rewind

So I

Love like I'm running out of time

Spend time like tomorrow you'll exist just in my mind

Find the time for restoration of sour relations

In the middle of it all find some room for patience

Ya never know behind what door your final hours waiting

So stay steady even love when ya heart is heavy

Have no regrets just let go of the things that pain you

You never know the definitions of the things that make you

Or shape you

Every new day your never the same you

Your just a mirror depicting an image of struggles you came through

You made it through you're alive ain't you

Sometimes we're put through test just to see how our faith grew

To see if we're faithful

To see if we'll rely on the Most High the only one who's able

In essence you will see the sunshine if you stay true

So stay you

Only change for the better but know what's better

Cuz when stormy weather comes you'll be forced to keep it together

However, your trials are the rain that make you grow

Help sustain you through the stains in life

And pain will make you know

Where to go how to flow

And know that this is not the end

It's just a bend and joy is waiting round the corner

Life has so much that is in store

Never give up

Until you know that you have tried more or

Took that extra step

Took a leap and bound for

Then live for

The very things that you would die for

Ahead of you awaits a slice of heaven there to take

So don't let it go to waste

Your dreams are never a mistake

Waves crash on shores like

Burdens laden on shoulders

The sand takes the weight

written by: Wendell S.

 

This photograph was taken at my second home in Barbados, while I’m there I spend a ton of time on the beach and it is often a place of peace and reflection for me. Every now and then I’ll take a mind trip there and imagine myself on the beach, absorbing the air and the sounds of the waves which led to the inspiration for this haiku. Waves are so good at grabbing attention, they have this boisterous sound that can dominate ears all while bringing a sense of calm and relaxation, but as I sat there I thought “would waves make their sound if they didn’t have the sand to crash on?” Whenever the water meets the shore, the sand has to carry its sound to our ears, there’s a relationship between them and without the sand, we’d have a different less intimate sound, but the crazy thing is that the sand doesn’t take or look for any of the credit. It sits there and waits for the weight of the water to produce a sound for it to carry. Some of us can relate to sand in big ways, some of us are sand to our friends, lovers, coworkers etc. We wait for those who have something for us to carry (in this case a burden) and we hold it for them, or disperse of it. Some of us carry the burdens of our friends, family members whoever it may be, and we aren’t looking for credit or pats on the back, we just do it because we’re built for it, just like the sand.

Buried feat. Gabe Katz

Easter Epiphany Brooklyn's Good Friday Spoken Word Series Vol.1

series shot by: edifymediaworks

directed by: Imani

“Buried” is spoken word piece written and performed by myself and my boy Gabe Katz. This poem in part, is a lament to God about struggles in life that we try to bury but find themselves resurrecting all ares of our life, the other part is that this piece also shines light on how we are flawed and imperfect but presented perfectly to God through Christ. This was part of a poetry video series I lead at Epiphany Fellowship Brooklyn

This piece is interesting because it kind of broke the rust off of myself and Gabe. It’s been a while since either of us had written or performed any poetry (a whole lot longer for Gabe) but there was something special about how it all came about. Gabe, who hadn’t written poetry in years, came to me and wanted to do a joint piece with me, so I agreed, Gabe wrote his parts I wrote mine, and beauty was formed. This was one the hardest poems I’ve had to write because it comes from such a personal place.
