How I Use My Brand Values To Enhance Your Destination Session | Elle Studios Brand Values
Recently I talked about my experience shooting Jaqueline and Ronnie’s destination engagement session at Yosemite National Park. As you’ve previously read in their blog, the impact I was left with after their engagement session has forever changed my perspective on not only destination engagement sessions but elopements as well. More than anything, being able to combine my brand values along with the client journey my couples get to experience makes the destination session so memorable. So how about I break down my values and processes behind these destination sessions; the same exact ones that craft unforgettable moments, for engagement sessions and elopements, for anyone and everyone.
Comfort is highly important to me. I pride myself on an experience that revolves around the connection. I’m always aiming to create a super laidback and easy vibe for you and your partner as well as for myself in order to best document your story. Intuitively working to tell your story is my goal. Not only connecting within our emotional environment is important but the connection over a love of a beautiful place or desire to see the world is the cherry on top that makes the feeling during your session one to call your own. Being in a place you truly feel called to enhances your destination session experience. If you feel called to make your session adventurous and explore nature, your comfort level will radiate through your images. That’s exactly what I captured and felt at Jaqueline and Ronnie’s session. Although none of us had been to Yosemite National Park before, we instantly felt at home in a place that brought connection and love so seamlessly together.
When planning Jaqueline and Ronnie’s destination engagement session, they early on realized they needed guidance to best prepare for their session. They had a vision but no execution. At that point, providing help from my end was a no-brainer. And it’s a no-brainer for your session as well. I’ll be there every step of the way to help with choosing and planning locations based on lighting, securing permits, and so on. I’ll create a simple but important timeline, help with outfits, etc. making it as stress-free as possible. Being able to provide the necessary professional guidance and recommendations to my couples makes them feel at ease right away. When the day came for Jaqueline and Ronnie’s engagement session, they were ready to go, feeling comfortable and well prepared without the overwhelm.
Not only did Jaqueline and Ronnie feel comfortable and prepared for their destination engagement session, but they felt free to do whatever felt aligned. To be quite honest, that’s what it’s all about. It’s all about freedom. The destination engagement session, the elopement you’re wanting is about you and your partner. You both are free to be yourselves and choose a location that truly speaks to you and who you both are. This experience is 100% about you two. Feel free to create according to what feels right to you.
No doubt that Jaqueline and Ronnie’s destination engagement session was a true success. They have no regrets about planning, traveling, and making a trip out of their engagement session. Being able to see how every detail was brought to life by my values coming into play along with their wants and desires was an emotional and memorable experience for all. I still cry thinking about it; my passion and love for places like this are overwhelming. I’d love to be able to tell your beautiful story through my brand values.
