Personal Branding trends worth knowing about in 2026

A handful of shifts are shaping how branding sessions are shot and delivered in London right now, worth knowing whether you’re booking one or shooting one.

Clients are asking for more natural, less obviously posed results, even for formal bookings. Faster turnaround has become an expectation rather than a bonus, particularly where images feed straight into marketing or social. And there’s a growing preference for a smaller number of genuinely strong images over a large gallery of similar ones.

None of this is a passing trend so much as a shift in what people actually want from a branding session: fewer, better, faster.

FAQs

Two common questions, answered.

Do you shoot product or workspace detail shots too?
Yes. Alongside people, product, workspace and detail shots give a marketing team a broader library to pull from.

What exactly is a branding session?
A longer shoot built around a business rather than a single portrait, covering multiple setups and locations. It delivers a full image library for a site and social channels in one go.
