Preferred Photographer Brand Partnerships
Preferred Photographer Brand Partnerships
Creative Alignment & Artistic Integrity
Partner with a brand that values intention, craftsmanship, and storytelling as much as you do. Bentley + Lace collaborates with photographers who care about quality, emotion, and refined detail. Our gowns are designed to photograph beautifully, allowing you to create imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and true to your creative voice — not forced, trendy, or overly branded.
Portfolio Growth with Couture Impact
Our couture and rental gowns are statement pieces that immediately elevate your work. Partnering with Bentley + Lace gives you access to distinctive designs that help you build a stronger, more recognizable portfolio. These images attract clients seeking premium experiences, support higher-end bookings, and position your work within a luxury market that values thoughtful styling and fine-art execution.
Respectful, Flexible Collaboration
We understand that photography is a business and a craft. Our partnerships are designed to be flexible, clear, and respectful of your time and workflow. There are no rigid posting schedules or ongoing obligations. Whether you collaborate on a single project or return for future opportunities, we focus on clear expectations, fair value exchange, and partnerships that feel mutually beneficial — not demanding or one-sided.
A Balanced Creative Partnership
What We Request
Intentional Image Use
We request a small, curated set of edited images that clearly showcase the gown in use. This may include styled shoots, client sessions, or creative concepts that align naturally with your work and aesthetic.
Timely Delivery
Images are requested within an agreed-upon window (typically 10–14 days) so they remain relevant for features, launches, and marketing.
Brand Credit & Tagging
When imagery featuring Bentley + Lace gowns is shared publicly, we ask that our brand is properly tagged and credited across all platforms. This includes social media, websites, blogs, and publications.
If Bentley + Lace gowns are used alongside other partnered elements—such as backdrops, or props,—our brand must still be clearly credited and tagged. This ensures our work is represented accurately and acknowledged whenever our gowns are part of the final imagery.
We are equally committed to crediting you.
Creative Alignment
We value photographers whose style aligns with our brand — clean, elevated, emotive imagery. We are not looking for perfection, trends, or forced content, just authentic work that reflects your artistic standards.
