Founder Story

Rajen's process allowed me to take a step back and understand what my own story is.He is able to build the founder story and identify what makes me tick. He has produced photos and other media which follow that story, and I'm proud to use the media in my business.Being a founder, you throw everything you have into the business. You can lose sight of who you are. Rajen unpicks this and gives you something which is valuable to your current and future ventures.

Rajen's personal branding service for founders is an absolute game-changer in the way entrepreneurs position themselves in the market. His approach is deeply personal; Rajen takes the time to understand the passions and values that drive founders, ensuring the personal branding developed is not only authentic but also resonates with the core of their entrepreneurial spirit. The sessions with him are enlightening, as he expertly draws out the essence of a founder's story and crafts a brand image that's both engaging and genuinely reflective of their personal journey.During the photoshoot, Rajen's talent really shines. As someone who's always been a bit uneasy in front of a lens, I was amazed at how Rajen's guidance made me feel completely at ease, transforming a typically nerve-wracking experience into one that built my confidence. The resulting images were more than just photographs; they captured my newfound self-assurance and the sheer enthusiasm I have for my work. The impact of Rajen's work on my professional image has been profound. His ability to infuse my brand with confidence and clarity has not only enhanced my visibility but has also opened doors to new opportunities and connections. Rajen's service is not just about creating a strong brand presence; it's about emboldening founders to embody and project their true selves, setting them apart in the entrepreneurial world.

A positive and professional experience. Rajen really took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve and more importantly, provided his expert guidance when I was going slightly off my own brief!

Prior to contacting Rajen, I was scraping together random headshots and using them in the professional sphere. The few pictures I had were not fit for purpose.Rajen fixed this for me. We started by chatting about my personal brand and the branding of my marketing agency. We used that information to plan aesthetics and the story that my portraits would tell.He scouted the locations, offered me support on posing" and feeling comfortable during the shoot

It was great working with Rajen to define and articulate my personal brand. I was using a seriously outdated headshot and hadn't ever got around to taking a step back and looking at how I was actually presenting myself 'out there'. It was refreshing to talk with Rajen to home in on what messages I wanted to convey and then let him do the magic of turning that into a personal brand. I was able to start using the assets straight away...and wow...immediately got a great response! Turns out if you're in the people business, and the service you offer is all about you, writing posts that show you doing your thing has much more impact than I could have anticipated. I've been approached by people I haven't worked with for years...just because they can now SEE what I do. I highly recommend Rajen and Founder Story.

Working with Rajen was fantastic, he made the whole process as easy and comfortable as possible, and the resulting pictures were top quality. Highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of working with Rajen Mistry recently, and the experience was nothing short of transformative. Rajen not only assisted me in effectively articulating my Founder Story, but what truly stood out was his remarkable ability to translate that narrative into an effective art direction for our photo shoot. The result? A photo shoot that was not only enjoyable but also managed to capture the essence of my brand in ways I hadn't thought possible. Rajen's skill in understanding the core of my story and infusing it into the creative direction of the shoot makes him the ideal person to work with if you want to elevate your brand through your story!

As a successful agency owner at Big Bear Creative, I had lost a little bit of my 'why' I do what I do, and I was having difficulty articulating my story as an agency founder.Rajen is someone I know and trust, and I knew that with his creative agency experience, he'd be able to help me untangle what I was trying to express.Rajen put me at ease from start to finish, and in addition to capturing my story and assisting me in telling it, he also took some authentic story-led portraits that really captured where I was at that moment.I appreciate how he took all of the material, rants, and backstory and turned it into a story that was uniquely mine. He did something for me that I could never do for myself.I was surprised by how relaxed the entire process was, and I'd recommend Rajen to anyone trying to get their purpose, values and direction into a personal story.From beginning to end, everything was done professionally. Thank you, Rajen.

What a joy it's been to work with Rajen and the Founder story team.It's so vital to invest in your own personal brand, not just the company you're building.Founder Story made the experience enjoyable and energising. For a very reasonably investment (money and time) I now have a great foundation to build on with a strong personal brand, high quality photography and microsite.Highly recommend.
