YOUR BRAND OF MAGIC
This isn’t just BTS for Instagram stories. This is the real deal: creative that celebrates your work, empowers your brand, and tells your story.
Branding
why we do what we do
Have you been dreaming of…
photos that are so true to you and your brand that they’re never confused for trendy or cookie cutter?
an About Us video that sells your work and your brand for you, bringing your ideal clients right into your inbox?
working with a team of talented creatives who truly see you and bring out the soul of your brand?
GOOD. YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.
Full Day Brand Shoots
Includes pre-production and analysis on your brand journey, goals, competitors, and ideal clients. We’ll shoot:
The heart & soul of it: your brand’s story & all the magic that goes into the work you do.
The artist in residence: elevated headshots of you and your team that ground you in your brand.
The work you create: in its best light, thoughtfully photographed in alignment with your brand goals.
PHOTO projects BEGIN AT $5K
VIDEO projects BEGIN AT $5K
PHOTO AND VIDEO projects BEGIN AT $9K
What We Offer
“Do you do half day shoots? I only need a few hours.”
Through years of experience, we have learned that full day shoots open up the well of creativity and let us into the true heart of your business. We could charge you for 2, 3, or 4 hours, but that does two things:
It puts everyone on a much tighter schedule, leading to feelings of frustration and stress on the day of the shoot, and overall negatively affecting the work we can create together.
You have to pare down what to shoot. What parts of your business do you feel comfortable excluding from your brand? What part of your story are you sacrificing for a shorter day?
No sacrifices. No trimming. No rushing. Just our team and your team, diving into what makes your brand so great.
Power Hour Headshots
Just looking for headshots?
This is a one hour shoot in studio to capture elevated Who Are We photos of you and your team. Includes minimal pre-production and a studio rental in Denver or Colorado Springs.
TEAMS OF 4 OR FEWER: $1.5K
ADDITIONAL persons: $250 EACH
SoloPreneurs: $500
Step One: Discover
We’ll take a deep dive into your brand identity to build your shoot pre-production, a.k.a a creative roadmap handcrafted to your story. In layman’s terms: consumer analysis, marketing goals, visuals, and shot lists.
The experience
Step two: develop
Your shoot day is here! Pre-production comes to production: where strategy meets artistry and, more importantly, where that creative direction we worked so carefully on comes to life.
Step three: deliver
One week after our shoot, the first round of photos and videos arrive. After a week or two of collaborative wiggling so it fits your brand just right, your bespoke brand photos and videos land in your inbox. Cheers to that!
“We have a designer and/or copywriter working on our brand as well. How do they fit in?”
So glad you asked! A breakdown of your brand identity, consumer analysis, brand voice, etc, is a vital part to any design and copywriting work. To avoid doing this twice (with potentially conflicting messages!), we work instead with what your brand designer and/or copywriter has drawn up for you already and align our imagery with their work. Typically, the most intuitive, efficient flow for a rebrand is as follows:
Brand design → Copywriting → Web Design → Brand photo and video.
Weren’t planning on hiring a copywriter until after the shoot? No worries! We can bundle our copywriting services with your package.

Kind Words
Sparrowgrain Creative was the clear choice from our first meeting. Ayla took the time to really understand my vision... Not only did she research [my message & imagery], but she intuitively grasped the core of what I do and care about.
While I so appreciated her communication and support leading up, what really stood out to me about working with Ayla was the space she created the day of our shoot. I had only just met Ayla that morning, but felt like I'd known her for ages — her energy, enthusiasm, humor, and encouragement helped me feel so at ease! Throughout our time, she reflected back to me the essence of our shoot and my business — reminding me of the intention, of what we were creating.
