Work with me Heading Vig Gleeson Personal Brand Photographer, Ireland

My aim is to inspire and empower small business owners and career professionals – like you and me – to explore personal branding as a direction for our professional life. I share ideas on how we can get clear on our personal brand story and build it into the foundation of how we communicate –with people we want to work with. Communication, in my view, is the engine and energy centre of our work and brand.

I am a photographer, writer and visual communicator, and I’m nuts about creating joy and ease in my own and my client’s careers and business. I believe – as small business owners and career professionals – we have a unique opportunity to merge our personal life with our work life in a way that feels easy, empowering and joyful. Personal Branding, as a philosophy & strategy, is the foundation for how I choose to live and work for the next 10 years.

In addition to Personal Brand Photography, my clients enjoy a range of services from headshots and profile photos to private and business event photography. I often work with groups and event organisers who want to offer headshots, profile, group and still  photos, to their members as part of an event or launch.

While I work one-to-one with Personal Brand Clients from across the English speaking world –  predominately online – most of my photography clients are based in Ireland. When I launched WonderWorks Photography in 2010 I quickly became the ‘go to’ local children & family photographer. Since then I have practised and developed my people photography skills through decades of working with hundreds of models of all ages.

After eight years of writing a memoir while living in Bangkok, Cairo and Athens – for Shane’s diplomatic postings – I’m delighted to be home in Limerick and return to my Passion for Photography.

With 50+ years life experience I’m returning to paid work, knowing my work must both inspire and challenge me as well as sustain and support my financial and emotional investments and objectives. Knowing who I want to work with and how, as well as being clear on my worth & value, comes from hard won life lessons I’m keen to share as I believe it will benefit us all and prevent burnout in business.

Your Brand Brief set out to answer the fundamental questions about you and your business. To get started on your own, read the Brand Ready Checklist and download the Brand Ready Guide to Stunning Images.

My personal brand brief [strategy] focuses on the emotional and financial support my client wants their work to bring into their life.

Whether you work with me or another photographer, your brand brief is the foundation of your IMAGE brief.

Your IMAGE Brief is a detailed storyboard for each set of IMAGES we want to create during your photoshoot. This level of detail and clarity means you are in control during your photoshoot and can relax and enjoy yourself, while trusting the creative process and our work together will produce the desired result. 

The result is a unique to you IMAGES Library of beautifully edited photographs —  ready for you to put to work and earn a healthy return on your investment.

We finally get to meet in person, which makes shoot days my favourite days ever! 

A day of great energy where we work together with ease to meet the objectives of your IMAGE Brief. Because of our detailed planning, Magic happens on shoot days!

I have decades of experience capturing the essence of people while  guiding them through a photoshoot, and making sure you’re comfortable and having a good time.

It is so much fun!

Click here to book your photoshoot today.

After your photoshoot I’m as excited as you are to see the IMAGES we captured together. Still, the process of selecting and editing your photographs is a labour of love that takes about 10 working days – depending on how many IMAGES you ask for. 

Your First Look Folio, is a beautifully designed PDF [similar to The Brand Ready Guide] filled with YOUR unique IMAGES laid out to tell YOUR brand story in a way that attracts the people you want to work with. 

Building on your Brand Brief, the First Look Folio, gives you image size guidelines 

This is for you to share and draw inspiration from. 

Your private online IMAGE Library is designed to make your everyday communication and marketing easy. Some photographs are cropped to suit the various platforms of your choice. Create a ‘love it’ combination of profile and cover photos. Unify your on and offline presence with instantly recognisable Personal Brand IMAGES only you have access to. 

I want your communication to be as easy as ‘add a quote & post!’

How you use our images, together with your messaging, will impact your return on investment. I want you to be clear on how soon you will make a full financial and energetic return on what you invested in your photoshoot and brand journey. 

Many small business owners cite tech as a barrier to success. I believe, tech & platforms are tools for empowerment – like driving a car – it takes practice and patience to master.

As your photographer and a copilot on your brand journey I am invested in your success.
This is why I help my clients be visible and available while staying sane in a tech & platforms crazy world!

I help bridge a knowledge gap by developing communication strategies and elements – like graphic design, social media posts and email newsletters – with them. Using easy to learn – and free – platforms like Canva, MailChimp, Meta, WordPress, Yoast SEO and ChatGPT, my aim is to enable you to use your IMAGES and spread your message with ease and greatest impact.

Hearing from my clients about the impact personal branding is having in their work life is MAGIC!

I am passionate about sharing YOUR story and IMAGES with my clients, subscribers and followers, that’s why I invite all my clients to make use of my channels, including being a guest at my Podcast.
