Mysterious Brand Photography in Fairport, NY for Musician Haley Kait
Typically, when we’re scheduling an outdoor branding session, we’re hoping for a nice, clear day. But for musician, Haley Kait we actually hoped for a moodier scene.
Haley is an up and coming musician / actor with an indie sound. She came to us for personal brand photography that would show off her vibe when it came to auditioning for theatre roles, an album cover, and images that would to be used to promote her live shows. So rather than bright and polished, Haley wanted branding pictures that felt more mysterious, darker, and even a little bit haunting.

At her consultation, we talked with Haley about how she wanted her brand to feel. And those words - mysterious, darker, haunting became the goal that we based our decisions on. Everything from the lighting to the location was determined keeping that feeling in mind. That’s what makes brand photography for artists so interesting. It’s not so much about what’s on trend as it is about showcasing the artist’s personality.
Branding Photography in Fairport, NY: Creating a Moody Vibe
We photographed this branding portrait session in Fairport, NY, using its parking garage and canal as our nighttime backdrop. The industrial edges of the garage, and the quiet calm of the evening all worked together to mirror Haley’s indie acoustic style.
Haley’s guitar was, of course, a must-have. It’s more than an instrument; it’s part of how she connects with her audience. She also brought a black umbrella, which added more of that darker mood to the images.
