What is branded photography?

Branded photography connects your clients emotionally to your business. It shows them what your business is, what your brand stands for, and it gets them invested in your business.

Most importantly, professional photography sells your product for you. Use your photos in:

  • Social media
  • Advertising
  • Digital menus
  • Physical menus
  • Digital marketing
  • Ecommerce stores
  • Website
  • Newspaper advertisements
  • Mailers/postcards
  • Business cards
  • Banners
  • ... and more!

Meet the photographer.

I work with small businesses locally and nationally, so if you're looking for a Fort Collins photographer or a freelance photographer to come to you, book a free consult today!

What people have to say about working with Chelsea:

Many thanks to Chelsea Mae and Mae's Menu for the incredible photographs showcasing Bistro Nautile's new menu. Chelsea Mae was professional and easy to work with during the shoot. She had a great ideas for positioning the food, and took many frames of each dish. The resulting images are beyond my expectations.  Some are closeups, some are full frame, and some capture a part or portion of the dish. The artistry is evident, and striking. At Bistro Nautile we try to make our food into fine art for the plate. Chelsea Mae has captured our plate art, added her own flair and angle, and reimagined it as art for the walls. I can't wait to use these images in upcoming promotions, and for years to come. 

Kat Reeves, Bistro Nautile

Chelsea was extremely easy to work with and kept the shoot light hearted and laid back. I'm excited how the pictures turned out and have pride when I see them in the public. Thanks Chelsea!
