Welcome to the blog, sort of like a digital garden where dreams are planted and grow wild! My name is Quianna and my family calls me “Qui” like key! I’m a traveling photographer based in Scottsdale and the Bay Area.
I love adventures and creating memories even more than I love photographing them—and I LOVE taking photos! In addition to capturing weddings, family milestones, and the best memories I also offer business tools, motivation and inspiration to help creatives turn their passions into their profession. We only get this one life, why not live our days doing what we love?
Wish your dream clients would just trust you? Wish you could prove your value before even sending over your pricing? It’s time to stop chasing trends to create content that attracts your dream clients, simply being yourself.
Why Capturing Behind-the-Scenes Content is Essential for Your Business
As a small business owner, you’re always looking for ways to stand out, connect with your audience, and prove your value. One of the most powerful, yet often overlooked, tools in the palm of your hands is behind-the-scenes (BTS) content. Whether you’re a photographer, a coach, or stylist, course creator or any service provider, sharing what happens beyond the polished final product can transform your brand and have clients begging to work with you.
1. Showcase the Client Experience
Clients want more than just a service or product—they want an experience! Sharing behind-the-scenes footage of your process offers them a sneak peek into what it’s like to work with you. From the planning phase to the delivery of the final result, BTS content gives your audience a transparent view of your operations.
Why it works:
Builds Trust: People are more likely to trust a brand they feel they know. Showing your workflow, client meetings, or preparation helps potential clients visualize their own experience with you.
Adds a Personal Touch: It’s not just about the end result—clients want to see how you care for them, how detail-oriented you are, and how invested you are in their success. Capturing moments like setting up a photoshoot, packaging a product, or preparing for a consultation demonstrates that you go the extra mile for every project.
2. Prove Your Value
Behind-the-scenes content is an excellent way to demonstrate the skills, expertise, and dedication that go into your services. Clients often don’t realize the amount of work and passion involved in what you do—BTS footage can change that.
Why it works:
Show Your Expertise: By sharing your process, you’re not just telling potential clients about your experience and knowledge—you’re showing it. BTS content proves that you’re an expert in your field, reinforcing why your services are worth the investment. Showcase why you’re a BIG deal!
Highlight Your Hard Work: From the careful attention to detail to the thought process behind each step, BTS content lets clients see the depth of effort you put into every project. This transparency helps justify your pricing, as clients understand the value they’re receiving. People need to see it to believe it!
3. Share Your Personality
People connect with people, not just businesses. Sharing BTS content is the perfect way to inject your personality into your brand. It helps humanize your business, making it more relatable and approachable. Whether you’re a perfectionist, a creative thinker, or someone with a laid-back approach, clients want to see the real you.
Why it works:
Build Authentic Connections: Authenticity matters. When clients get to see the person behind the brand, they feel a personal connection, which is often a deciding factor in who they choose to work with.
Attract Your Ideal Client: Sharing your personality allows you to attract clients who resonate with your values, style, and approach. When people feel aligned with you on a personal level, they’re more likely to want to work with you, creating deeper, more meaningful business relationships.
How to Get Started with BTS Content
Capture Prep Work: Show snippets of you preparing for a project, setting up your workspace, or packing materials.
Highlight Key Moments: Record moments that showcase your expertise—like problem-solving during a session or adjusting details to make a product perfect.
Celebrate Wins: Share the joy and satisfaction of delivering the final product or completing a service. Clients love to see the transformation from start to finish.
