Door County Branding Session

Colorful and creative content creator and actress Rachel Brooks and I spent the day together. We photographed a variety of settings throughout beautiful Door County. This Door County Branding Session was a strategic content batching session for social media. We drove up to the peninsula and spent the whole day hopping from one gorgeous location to another. Of course, we stopped for lunch, enjoyed our girl talk, and got caught up.

Rachel is a master of content batching for social media. This involves planning and capturing numerous outfits in various locations within a short timeframe. This maximizes your collection of photos for social media sharing. We love doing this with business professionals, entrepreneurs, bloggers, and content creators. To say we had fun would be an understatement! Rachel flew in from Colorado to surprise a friend who got the lead in a local show here in Wisconsin. We’ve wanted to photograph together for years, so we took advantage of her time here. 

We had the most incredible day driving up to Door County and stopping at seven locations. Cave Point was our fourth stop on our loop around the peninsula. This place is stunning but challenging due to heavy tourist traffic most of the year, but it’s definitely worth it. Rachel selected this simple white dress paired with spirarillos for this sophisticated summer on Lake Michigan look. Other featured locations include Portage Park and Deer Path, a public-access beach in Door County, WI, perfect for branding photography.

Take a look at our first few locations featured in our Sturgeon Bay Branding Session blog post.
