Let’s talk about that Pinterest folder of saved brand photos, shall we? You know the one. It’s bursting with dreamy workspace shots, perfectly styled desk flatlays, jaw dropping scenes, and those casual-but-somehow-still-professional headshots that make you think, “Yes, THAT. That’s exactly what I want.”
First things first: your taste is impeccable. Those photos you’ve been saving at 11pm while lying in bed? They show you have a clear vision for your brand. You know exactly what you want your business to look like. The only problem? None of those photos are actually of you.
We’ve all been there
You’re scrolling through Pinterest or Instagram, and suddenly you spot it – that perfect photo that captures everything you want your brand to be. Save. Another one that would be perfect for your website? Save. Oh, and that pose would be amazing for showing off your creative process! Save, save, save.
Before you know it, you’ve got enough saved inspiration to fill three different brand photoshoots… but still no photos of your own to post.
Here’s the thing about perfect: it’s the enemy of done
While you’re waiting for the perfect time to book that full brand photoshoot (you know, when you lose those 10 pounds, or when your office is completely renovated, or when you’re having a perfect hair day), your dream clients are missing out on connecting with the amazing human behind your business – you.
Let’s turn your pinterest board inspiration into real content
What if I told you we could take ONE of those saved photos – just one! – and turn it into reality in less than an hour? No need to recreate your entire Pinterest board. No pressure to nail every single shot you’ve ever saved. Just one concept, brought to life in a way that’s authentically you.
Think about it:
- That coffee shop working shot could become your own morning routine series
- The styled desk could showcase your actual creative process
- That casual headshot could be the friendly face that welcomes clients to your website
Even a short session can make a big impact
Here’s the secret nobody talks about: You don’t need 100 different photos to show up online. You need a few really good ones that tell your story. In a fast 30-40 minute session, you could have the perfect handful of 15-20 photos you need to fill your biggest content gaps and give you a month’s worth of posts.
Consider this your official permission slip
- Start before you’re “ready”
- Choose done over perfect
- Share the real human behind your business
- Turn those saved folders into your own content
So, what’s the next step?
Look through your saved folder right now. Pick ONE photo that makes you think “Yes, that’s so me!” That’s your starting point. That’s your first step from pinning to posting.
Ready to turn that inspiration into reality? Your dream clients are waiting to see the real you – not another saved folder of someone else’s brand photos.
Remember: The best time to start showing up authentically online was yesterday. The second best time? That would be now.
P.S. Ready to move from saved folder to social feed? Let’s make it happen in a short and sweet mini session. Less than an hour. No overwhelm, no pressure – just you, showing up as yourself.
