How it all comes together

One client. The whole picture.

No service works alone. Here’s one client where this work joined everything else, and what it added up to.

Gnarly Nutrition brand work by Ballard Branding

Client story · Gnarly Nutrition

A protein brand that broke out. With no ad budget.

The challenge

All-natural whey on a shelf full of muscle-bro tubs, and no money for ads.

What we did

  • Built a GN mark that breaks out of its circle, plus the “Full-On Nutrition” line.
  • Chose real grassroots athletes as endorsers. Never paid posts.
  • Shot every photo outside, never in a gym, and grew one whey into a full line.

What's included

What you get

We don't send a photo crew. We direct realistic imagery and video with modern tools, guided by a written image canon for your brand. Strategy decides what each image needs to do. Then we make it.

  • An image canon: the look, light, color and rules for your brand
  • Realistic product and lifestyle scenes
  • Hero images for your website
  • Social and ad imagery that all matches
  • Your real photos cleaned up and fit into the same look

Who it's for

This fits if...

  • Stock photos make you look like everyone else.
  • A full photo shoot isn't in the budget or the timeline.
  • Your images don't match from one channel to the next.
