Anne, the owner of I Am Candles, reached out to me to update her product photos. She started her hand-poured candle business a few years ago, initially selling at local markets and through social media messages. Ready to elevate her brand, she launched an e-commerce website on Shopify to simplify the buying process and expand her reach on Instagram.

Anne understood the power of strong imagery in helping her business stand out online. She wanted to showcase her bespoke products professionally, build trust with her audience, and refine her brand’s visual identity.

To bring her vision to life, I created a detailed project brief, a comprehensive mood board, and a well-structured shoot list. This project required art direction, advanced planning, video editing, and prop sourcing.

Before the photoshoot, we finalized the colour palette, branding elements, and key details to ensure that the props and styling perfectly aligned with her brand’s aesthetic. I structured the shoot list in advance, outlining every shot to streamline the process on the shoot day.

The theme of this candle photoshoot blended woodland with a touch of magic.

For the video content, I captured behind-the-scenes moments, timelapse footage, user-generated content, and hand model clips. I shot everything in portrait format to optimize it for Instagram and Facebook Reels.

The final reel consisted of six video clips combined into a single Instagram reel, along with a collection of resized portrait photos. Resizing the images externally before uploading ensured they maintained high quality on Instagram.

Why Include Video in Your Package?

When you book a video package, you don’t just receive one finished reel—you get multiple individual video clips, allowing you to create at least six different reels or videos. This flexibility gives you fresh content to repurpose across different platforms.

The Power of Short-Form Video

Short-form video offers endless possibilities. You can clip, reuse, and repurpose the content in different ways across various social media platforms.

This reel incorporates trending audio and on-screen text, but you can also use each clip with its original sound or overlay your own voiceover.

Just like high-quality photos, engaging video content stops the scroll and attracts your ideal clients directly to your social media, website, or email list.

Adding video clips to a photoshoot enhances your brand storytelling, giving your audience a dynamic and immersive experience.
