Meet Iris

A smarter way to plan & document your brand shoots, without starting from scratch every time.

You’ve had the client call. Now what?

Planning a brand shoot can be exciting but also overwhelming. Outfits, props, brand vibes, shot lists, locations, lighting… there’s a lot to think about.

The Iris Kit gives you a streamlined system to plan every shoot with clarity and confidence. No guesswork, no chaos, and no awkward “wait, did I write that down?” moments.

Whether you're new to brand photography or just ready to level up your client experience, Iris has you covered.

Does this sound like you?

You’re never quite sure if you’re asking the right questions before a shoot

You don’t always know how to translate a client’s ideas into strong, scroll-stopping visuals

You’re never quite sure if you’re asking the right questions before a shoot

You feel lost when clients can’t articulate what they want and you’re left guessing

You see other photographers charging premium rates and think, “What am I missing?”

You end up defaulting to the same safe setups, instead of planning something bold, thoughtful or tailored

Transcript
Guide

Not a note-taker? No problem.
This short guide shows you exactly how to record and transcribe your client call using free tools, so you can focus on the conversation, not your notebook.

You can then paste the transcript straight into Iris for instant shoot planning. The added bonus is that you'll be able to use this transcript with my AI Blogging assistant (coming soon).
