How is it to work with me?

“

You don’t just turn up to a brand photography shoot with Kerstin. She puts in an immense amount of time and effort into getting to know you and your brand (whether personal or business), before she takes a single picture… Kerstin is great at making you feel relaxed and getting the best out of you. Her energy and enthusiasm make the photoshoot a hugely enjoyable day… I recommend everyone should do a brand photography photoshoot with Kerstin.”

“Investing in a brand shoot is one of the best decisions I made for my business.

Kerstin was so thorough, knowledgeable and skilled in what she does. She helped me think through my brand shoot through discussion and her lovely workbook that has so many helpful questions that helped me think deeper about my brand which is me ☺️.

She guided me all the way through and the process was unhurried. Kerstin really listened to what I was saying to her and truly understood what my brand is and could be. She’s really amazing. She took so many amazing photos. I love them all.

I had a lot of fun throughout the process and my two dogs love it too 🥳🥳

Now I am using my brand photos on my website and social media. 

It gives me an additional voice to tell my ideal clients about me and my business. I love it and would highly recommend Kerstin. 

She’s da best ☺️ brand photographer!!”

“Kerstin is a very talented photographer, but that’s only the beginning.

The value you’ll get from working with Kerstin isn’t just in the photos you’ll end up with (and yes, they will be fabulous – you will love them because yes, she will capture you just how you want to be seen) – it’s a business growth experience.

Her insight, intuition and refusal to let you and your business settle for anything short of your true potential, make Kerstin’s service truly transformational.

If you’re still wondering whether it’s worth it – it absolutely is. You’ll walk away with wonderful images, but even more than that, with a depth of confidence and clarity that will transform the way you see yourself in your business – for good.”

I never thought I would hear myself say it, but I can honestly say that I’ve loved the whole experience. I did feel a little nervous on the morning of the shoot, but the nerves soon disappeared as Kerstin put me at ease and made the process fun!

And I’m so in love with my final images. They aren’t just a set of typical desk/office shots – which I knew I didn’t want. The creativity really reflects the nature of my work and I love the detail in them. I don’t usually like to share photos of myself but I’m so confident in sharing my brand photos! I’ve had some amazing feedback and compliments on them.

I would totally recommend working with Kerstin for your brand shoot. The attention to detail, ideas, creativity, editing is amazing and she goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect!

You really knew how to get me glowing and shining-and were so supportive, on structure and focus. What energy you have! Awesome!

You’ve captured me, the ambiance of the boat and and everything about who I am. Proud to step into the me that is.
You are amazing❤️🤗 so gifted and professional❤️❤️

They are absolutely brilliant! Stunning and I’m exstatic! You are just the very best❤️

It’s a whole story of transformation in itself!
They’re not just ‘pictures’ it’s move from imposter syndrome to being truly in one’s power and that’s what you’ve achieved Kerstin Gruenling.”

“Kerstin put a huge amount of effort into capturing my brand with her photos.

She really helped me to focus on exactly what my company stands for, and ways of getting that across in the images.

The preparation for the shoot alone was a really helpful process, and the shoot itself was great fun!

Kerstin is a pleasure to work with and her pictures are truly beautiful.

I’d recommend her to anyone keen to get their message across with the help of brand photography.“

“Kerstin is a fantastic photographer but she is so much more than that. Don’t go to Kerstin if you just want a couple of boring routine headshots. I mean, she could do that for you and she’d do an amazing job but you’d be missing out on taking your personal branding to a whole new level. 

The Kerstin Experience starts long before any pictures are taken. Her workbook makes you think deeply about who you are and what your brand really means to your clients, her planning sessions go into intricate detail about styling, props, locations, even the weather is part of the planning process. The result is a unique set of images that you can be proud to use in practically any situation. I can totally recommend the Kerstin Experience!“

“The questions you use in your workbook are so insightful, the layers you take your client through in the workbook generate many “lightbulb” moments and provide real clarity as you move from step to step and page to page… Thank you, this has been soooo much more than a brand photography exercise. You have added so much value to me and my business, that goes far beyond what I know will be a set of awesome images.”

Kelly Houston

The photos are completely on brand and I now have beautiful stock images I have used across my website, training presentations and marketing collateral.

Working with Kerstin was great fun, I highly recommend her to others that are looking to build their personal brand or refresh their professional look. “

Laura Bosworth

“Working with Kerstin was a true delight. I am delighted with the photos that Kerstin produced for us on our Brand shoot. Kerstin not only takes great photos but digs deep into your business to understand your story and what you want to portray in your images. It is that detail and tougher planning which ensures that you have a successful shoot.
Kerstin is great at putting you at your ease and getting the best out of her models even the four-legged ones- Perhaps especially the for legged ones. With Kerstin, you will get great results and have fun along the way- Thanks again Kerstin“

“I’ve been camera shy for as long as I can remember. I was always the one behind the camera at family gatherings and would hide at the back of my group of friends whenever photos were being taken on a day/night out.
But as a realist, I knew that I needed to get some photos for my up and coming business so it was with some trepidation I contacted Kerstin. I had met her several times online and she seemed like my sort of girl.
I can wholeheartedly say that I shouldn’t have been so hesitant and nervous. Kerstin immediately set me at ease, acknowledged my fears and making me feel listened to. Through our discussion it became evident that what I needed was a “my brand isn’t quite ready” photo shoot….she really does need to get a catchier title! There was no hard sell, and she didn’t try to push a bigger package.
We agreed a date and place and met for the shoot. Again I was initially hesitant, having a large zoomed camera in front of me was a very alien concept. But again, Kerstin soon made me feel at ease. By the time she had taken a few photos I was loving being in front of the camera. I didn’t even mind that people were stopping to stare, I imagined I was some famous celebrity visiting Broughty Ferry for the day, hounded by the paparazzi.
My photo shoot with Kerstin was a wonderful experience, she is the most amazing professional photographer. I don’t know how she managed it but she captured some beautiful images. Photos which I am proud to share with the world.
So, if you’re on the lookout for a brand photographer your search is over, you’ve found Kerstin.”

I’m so happy that there was someone who could not only make me look good but also made it a heap of fun. Kerstin went above and beyond to make it a green day.

If you’re not a fan of the camera, then she’s the photographer for you!“
