We did brand shoots for two hair salons back to back recently, Trilogy Hair Salon and One Zero Six and it really showed how important hair salon branding photos are when it comes to creating a cohesive and professional look. In this blog post, we’re giving you a look into what a hair salon branding photo session with us looks like and how it can help grow your business.

If you’re at all curious about another shoot we did with One Zero Six when they first opened their salon, here is our blog post that gives a look inside that shoot!

Hair Salon Branding Photos: Trilogy Hair Salon

Our shoot with Trilogy was our first time working together and they were looking for a mix of team headshots, group shots, and more casual photos throughout the salon for their social media and website. We also captured product photos and video so they could easily market the products they sell to their clients.

Through their individual shots, we wanted each person to have something a little different. This helped show off their services while keeping the photos fun, but still professional. A branding shoot like this is all about creating images that feel cohesive while reflecting the personality of the team, and as you can see, Trilogy’s team was full of energy and personality, which came through in some really great individual shots.

We set up a flat lay using some of their most recommended hair products, which gives them content they can post whenever they want to highlight specific brands or products. Along with individual and team photos, Trilogy shared inspiration images that helped guide the shoot and show us their style. Some of our personal favourite shots were the ones that showed off their individual personalities and some of the creative shots like the products balancing on the chunky heels.

Because we’ve photographed a variety of hair stylists and salons, we were able to suggest props and photo ideas throughout the session. Trilogy also came prepared with Pinterest inspiration, which always helps us understand exactly what you’re looking for. They now use the headshots we took on both their “About” page and homepage, giving their website a cohesive look. Their hair salon branding photos also keep everything consistent across Instagram and other social platforms.

Hair Salon Branding Photos: One Zero Six

We worked with One Zero Six the previous year, and this second shoot was to update their hair salon branding photos and keep their feed fresh. We focused on shots of their salon, staff, new services, and barber shop area. They wanted new content, including photos with models to showcase their skills, products, and services.

Since we already knew their space and brand, the session moved smoothly. They were super accommodating with moving things around to get the best angles. This time they brought in models to highlight their work and show what clients can expect after a cut and style.

We wrapped up the session with group shots, and of course their cool, effortless style is the aesthetic we all aspire to. Knowing their brand ahead of time helped us create photos that fit perfectly with how they market their salon.

We also include video in our packages, and you can see some of that content on One Zero Six’s Instagram from this shoot here. Since they offer multiple services and post consistently, having a wide variety of branding photos makes it easier for them to share content regularly.
