Use It or Lose It
Mary Kondo but for your business…
Use It or Lose It
USE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA SMARTER
The internet gurus say you need to be everywhere. If you’re anything like me, a father with 3 kids and a full time job; being EVERYWHERE consistently is hard. Facebook, Instagram, TicTok, Twitter, Snapchat, Tumblr, Youtube, Pinterest…. did I list them all?
Can you see my point before I make it? If you have the time and you can post quality posts, more power to you. If you don’t, choose wisely. I know I can consistently post to Tiktok and Instagram which copies my post to Facebook. I pick one day and make my content in bulk and post it during the week. Apps that are under your business name must have business content dealing with your business or what potential clients want to see. Anything else can turn your next potential client away. You’re posting memes and they want a serious headshot to boost their business. They don’t have faith in you. NEXT! I am also guilty of this. My Twitter no longer serves my business soooo… byebye! Here are the receipts.
bye bye twitter
What is Branding?
What is Branding?
Branding is the process of creating a distinct identity for a business in the mind of your target audience and consumers. At the the most basic level, branding is made up of a company's logo, visual design, mission, and tone of voice. The end of the year is a perfect time to rebrand your busniess. Luckly with GR Design & Photography all the things I listed for rebranding can be done with me.
The Madelyn is a restaurant in NYC I worked with. They needed an identity. A logo fit for a high end fusion restaurant. This went on their website, menus, marketing, and vinyl lettering for their glass storefront. Photography for the website was also needed and they appreciated that they were able to get all these services from one vendor. How did I do?
J’adore Fashion is a clothing brand. I was asked to make the logo fun and classy. We used 3 models to photograph their inventory which also was fun and classy. What does this brand, as a whole, say to you?

Christmas sessions were a success once again. I had such a great time photographing all these families.
I tried something new this year. I had the honor of being picked to take school pictures for The Ivy Academy in Teaneck. It taught me a lot.

2018's The Year of the Professionals
2018 has been a great year. I showed you the Maternity success for this year in my last blog last week. This blog is for the grown ups.
The professionals came out of the woodwork this year for headshots. I was honored to photograph these amazing people to show the best version of theirselves. Another venture I dipped into was Decor Photography. Many party planners and bakers set up BEAUTIFUL dessert tables. A cell phone picture just doesn't do it justice.
