Braydy Olson

For the past decade I have had my hand in launching Iconic and successful brands using my imagery and creative direction. I moved to New York from Seattle in 2008 and immediately started assisting fashion, editorial and beauty photographers, picking up skills from each experience and profession. As I have grown into a Photographer and Director in my own right I have developed the skills and reputation of closely working with emerging and established brands. From a start up such as Glossier, who needed help finding their voice visually in a crowded beauty field to a well established brand such as CVS who wanted a fresh and authentic beauty re-brand. I have time and again provided brands big and small the opportunity to be a leader in their respective category, and to set and exceed the standard among their peers.

My work as a photographer and creative has provided me the experience to become very proficient in leading client meetings, putting together budgets, crafting pitches, creative decks, and presentations as well as the ability to cast talent that fits detailed criteria and provide clients with a seamless start to finish experience throughout.

From helping launch brands such as Hims, Glossier, Live Tinted etc. as well as breathing new life into established brands such as CVS, Macy's, Clinique and many more I have proven myself with a stellar track record and client list.

While I did not have the traditional school path to my career, I would not change a thing. Learning this industry from the inside out in New York City has been a schooling like no other. The transition into the Creative side has felt natural and has given me incredible insight to all positions within high level projects, campaigns and productions. I am an efficient, quick learning, motivated, and outgoing team member who strives to give brands what they are looking for and deliver on all levels.
