A strong brand identity is essential for your business’s success. When you’re ready to take your brand visuals to the next level, the right location can make a huge impact. This is where Home Studio List comes in (seriously one of my faaaavorite resources to use with my clients). They offer a curated collection of beautiful homes available specifically for commercial rentals. Whether you’re looking for a modern loft, a cozy farmhouse, or an elegant mansion, I guarantee Home Studio List has what you need!

As you plan for your next personal branding session, keep these tips handy!

1. Consistency is key when it comes to branding. Your location should have the same vibe as your brand. If you’re on the edgy side, consider something industrial or modern. If you’re relaxed, go for a cozy cabin. Trust your gut as you peruse through the listings! Home Studio List has done a wonderful job partnering with high-end spaces and ensuring there are an array of styles to choose from.

2. Pre-plan the images you need. When you know what the end result should look like, you can easily see what spaces fit the vision. Need horizontal images with negative space? Find a location with a large wall. Are you a realtor? Think about what the front porch and door look like to capture some “welcome home” images. Or maybe you really want some content in an office (psssst..you can even filter searches by room type!).

3. Maximize your rental with variety. Home Studio List allows you to rent the whole dang house. THERE’S SO MUCH ROOM FOR ACTIVITIES! (Within reason, of course 😉 ). If you vibe with at least 70% of the spaces in the home, put it on your list. Utilize multiple angles and different outfits to add a little spice to your content.

4. Don’t be afraid to travel. Home Studio List offers rentals all across the US. If nothing stands out right away, filter through other states. Having the *best* location for your brand is totally worth it – plus it’s a tax write-off!

5. Budget accordingly. A personal branding session is an investment and with the right location, outfits, props, and photographer, you’ll be slingin’ social media posts and attracting your ideal audience in no time. In Indiana, you can expect rentals for $125-$250/hour. Make sure you include time for set-up and packing. 

Your brand’s visual identity holds the power to captivate, inspire, and drive customer engagement. By carefully selecting the right location for your brand photography and videography sessions, you can elevate your brand to new heights and instill trust with your audience.

As soon as I onboard my clients, I help them choose a location and Home Studio List makes it sooo easy! Each rental has been above and beyond what we saw in the listing. Want to see more? Head over to this post and see my client’s session at the Elegant Refinement.
