When an unexpected leak sprung up in The Kwendy Home’s charming cottage style guest bathroom, the timeline for the remodel was moved up immediately.

Wendy goes into detail so take a look at the process in her cost breakdown blog post.

I’ve worked with Wendy of The Kwendy Home on many projects and each one is special. What makes them extra special is when her work and vision are showcased.

Recently, House and Home shared Wendy’s renovation tips and tricks along with the photos we took. See her feature in the April issue of House and Home.

Business branding: Sansa Interiors

March 03, 2022 in Lifestyle, Business

The Sansa Interiors team needed business branding photos so we worked through my shoot planning process to make sure we get the most of our session.

Where do we start?

This is a common question and I recommend starting a mood board. Gather inspiration for style, colour, location, outfits, etc. and put it into one place, whether it’s a Pinterest board, in Google Drive, or a Notion page.

Remember that this is for visual inspiration and the goal is NOT to replicate them. We want to create images that represent you and your unique brand and personality.

Where do you recommend we do the photoshoot?

The location depends on the style you’re looking for. There are many studios you can book in the Greater Toronto Area now and some of them will often refresh the theme of their rooms based on the season.

For this branding session, we went to Mint Room Studios.

Results

Here are some of the photos from our photoshoot:
