LOS ANGELES PHOTOGRAPHY + VIDEOGRAPHY

Custom brand photography, headshots, & video
for local businesses, products and enterprises

Based in Los Angeles, available nationwide

Your business needs professional, custom visuals to get seen & thrive.

Brand photography & videography is an instant connection between you and your potential clients.

It’s a powerful way to stand out from the stock photos, and show the human side of your business.

Brand photos & video give an authentic view into exactly what new customers can expect.

And most importantly, when executed with a marketing strategy, your business gets more inquiries and bookings than it ever did before.

That’s what we’re about here — getting your business visible, elevated, and more profitable.

Hi, I’m Bernadette.

Founder and Principal Videographer & Photographer at Solhaus Media.

Here’s the bottom line: I work with people who make the world a better place for others.

The stylists who guide their clients on how to enhance their already existing beauty.

The estheticians who peel away a client’s lack of confidence and doubts.

The realtors who find dream homes and interior designers who turn even more dreams into realities.

The lawyers who protect and fight for the people they work with.

The doctors who transform our health and well-being.

The masseuse who can knead away weeks or even years of pain.

Your work is not only needed, but desperately sought out.

The problem is, your people can’t find you…yet.

But that’s all about to change.

HOW WE DO WHAT WE DO

  • PLANNING & STRATEGY

    From a website refresh, to ongoing marketing, and seasonal specials, we go over everything your business needs at this moment and beyond.

    Then, you will receive a custom creative brief that outlines exactly how we are going to communicate those elements using imagery.

  • QUALITY & QUANTITY

    We’ll create a lot of images together quickly and efficiently. Expect to create everything you need for a website refresh in as little as 2 hours, or create a vault of social media content for 6-12 months within just 4 hours!

  • COMFORT GUIDANCE & HYPE

    We know getting in front of the camera can feel super awkward and unnerving, especially if you’re someone who’s never done it before! Rest assured, we guide you through posing in a way that feels authentic to you and makes you & your team look like rockstars in front of the camera. Playlists and dance parties encouraged 💃🏼

  • COLLABORATION

    We’ll always make sure we’re on the same page and get you feeling excited about the experience.

    During our shoot, you will be able to see what the images are looking like, so we can fix things on the spot!

BINGE THE PORTFOLIO

 TAKE A BREAK FROM NETFLIX,

DON’T FORGET ABOUT VIDEO!

Video is the ultimate way of connecting with an audience. It invites the viewer to see, hear, and feel you and your business.

Video increases your visibility to Google by 53%, solidifying your chances of showing up higher in search results.

Most importantly, videography is a way to bring your business into a continuously evolving digital market in a way that makes you stand out from competitiors.

THE PROCESS

  • INTRO CALL

    Let’s get to know each other. During this call, we’ll talk about who you are and when + why you started your business, and do an audit of your website and marketing efforts to see where photo and/or video is needed most. This is a no-pressure meet-and-greet, and you can ask me any questions before booking a session. We’ll figure out which package is best for your needs and get you on the calendar for a shoot!

  • PLANNING SESSION

    During this call, we’ll dive even deeper to your business goals & brand. Don’t have a “brand” yet? No worries! Our approach is a great starting point for anyone who hasn’t done this foundation building yet, or a great refresher if you have, to make sure your goals are still on track.

    After your planning session, you’ll receive a custom creative brief with a storyboard for our shoot, as well as prop list and confirm any add-ons you need.

  • PHOTO SHOOT DAY

    The big day is here! We’ve done all the work, so all you have to do is show up and smile!

    Our team will make sure everything goes seamlessly and efficiently.

    We will capture a wide variety of photos, from portraits, to full scenes & review them in real time to make sure everything is in place.

    Afterwards, make sure to take yourself out for a cocktail — you did it!

  • DELIVERY

    Within one week, you will receive a proofing gallery from which you will select your favorite photos.

    Need help? No problem. We offer complimentary selection calls to go over your photos.

    After you’ve made your selections, we’ll edit them and deliver them back to you within 14 days.

    You will receive both hi-res and web-res versions, so you’re set for online & print!

  • APRIL

    As the Founder of Semi-Conventional, I'm the face of my business, so I needed quality photos for my website and social media. Bernadette was the perfect choice to shoot my brand photos. Her process was seamless from start to finish, and she thought of absolutely everything! On the day of the shoot, she had everything prepped and ready, which made the entire experience fun and relaxing. She really has a great eye and gave me beautiful shots that I've used for almost 2 years now.

  • KATE

    Working with Bernadette and Solhaus Media wasn't work at all, it was an enjoyable, stress-free experience that was such an easy way for me to uplevel content for my candle company. She guided me on poses & actions throughout the whole shoot and I never felt uncomfortable even though it was my first experience with video. She also gave me lots of actionable tips on how to best incorporate some of these videos and photos into my content strategy, including on my website and on social media. After hearing some of her education on the power of video for SEO in particular, I was immediately motivated to start using the videos she had shot for me. I would 100% recommend Bernadette to friends and colleagues looking for a talented photographer/videographer with the creative know-how to shoot beautiful visuals for your personal/professional brand.

  • ANNE

    Bernadette is a class act and go-to for anyone seeking professional brand photography. Thoughtful, talented, creative, and compassionate, she's a real pro. You're in trusted, capable hands from the moment you meet her.

  • DIANA

    Without brand photography, I could not have the presence I do, nor the confidence to have the presence to do what I do.

    I have used my brand photos on my website, in my back-end CRM, in emails to my community, in social media posts, in marketing literature and magazine articles, bios for podcasts and profiles, literally everywhere.

    Bernadette is friendly and approachable, and can direct for optimum poses and expressions. I came in with a solid shot list and images I wanted to recreate, and she brought them to life. Some were quite artsy, for example, using prisms to create rainbow spectra in the images, and she handled it with aplomb.

    I would absolutely recommend Bernadette to a colleague or friend, and have, actually.
