LONDON WORKSHOP: BRAND COHESION
LEADERS ACROSS BRAND STRATEGY, DESIGN, PRODUCT & PHOTOGRAPHY CONVENED IN LONDON FOR A TWO-DAY SESSION ON SCALING VISUAL IDENTITY ACROSS EXPEDIA, HOTELS & VRBO.
(And blimey—we had fun.)
This workshop launched a company-wide alignment sprint to power brand photography across product, search, email, and marketing channels—solving for inconsistent imagery, sourcing gaps, and destination-level cohesion.
I co-led the effort alongside teams in media, SEO, product, engineering and localization to define the full photo ecosystem: sourcing, coverage, content systems, and cross-functional dependencies.
