Why Your Brand Deserves Photography and Video That Feel Real

When you run a small business, every photo and video you share tells a story.
The question is—does it tell the right one?

I’m Brian Pilgrim, founder of Starting Frame, and I believe the best visuals don’t just look good—they feel like you. Whether it’s a confident headshot for your LinkedIn profile, a set of brand photos for your website, or a short video that introduces your business to new clients, the goal is the same: show people who you really are.


Why “Real” Beats Perfect

In a world of filters, stock photos, and overly staged marketing, authenticity stands out.
A genuine smile, a moment of focus, a team working together in their own space—these are the things that make your audience stop scrolling.

At Starting Frame, I specialize in:

  • Headshots & Team Portraits — Clean, consistent, and approachable.
  • Brand Photography — Lifestyle, product-in-use, and space details that tell your story.
  • Business Video — Short, engaging clips that connect with your audience and feel natural.

Serving Small Businesses in NJ & NYC

I work with solo entrepreneurs, growing teams, and established brands across the New Jersey and New York City metro area. No complicated process, no endless revisions—just visuals you’ll be proud to share.

Why This Matters for Your Business

Professional photography and video aren’t just “nice to have” anymore—they’re your first impression online. They build trust, improve engagement, and help you connect with the people you want to work with.

If your current visuals don’t feel like you, it’s time to change that.
