What IS a Personal Brand?

Your personal brand isn't about perfection. It’s about allowing potential clients to get to know you, and in doing so building trust before you meet face to face. It's capturing the way you make a new client feel comfortable in your presence or the laugh that takes over your face before you can stop it. It's how you tell your story and your "why" through images as well as words. It's all the things that never make it into a headshot. Which is why a brading photoshoot is different.

These days, trust usually starts before the first conversation. People look you up and scroll past your face, maybe a few times, and somewhere in there they decide whether you feel safe to call. A stiff photo makes them guess. A real one lets them recognize you, so when you finally meet, it feels less like an introduction and more like “oh, there you are.” They become confident in their decision to work with you because your branding and who you are align.

Beyond that, a branding session gives you a whole gallery: the portraits, the in-between moments, the details like your hands, your notebook, your favorite mug. Using these photos to update your profile picture, send out blog posts, and get rid of all the stock images on your website together build a picture of who you are that one headshot never could.

The Process

Each session I do includes a questionnaire where I ask things like,

How did you get to where you are now?
What message do you want to communicate to your client?
What do you love most about your work?
What are a few words that describe how you want to feel when you see your images.

and the answers can be quick! They just help me get an idea of how to connect with you and what you're looking for.

Then, after you submit that, we will set up a 30 min zoom strategy session to talk through your answers, and plan your looks as well as preferences for hair and makeup.

Then we set the date and make it happen!

What People are Saying

What If I'm Not Photogenic?

Just leave that to me! My job is to make you look amazing!

I Don't Know What to do in Front of the Camera

Don't worry! I will pose and guide you the entire time so that you never feel uncomfortable or awkward with your posing.

I Need to Loose Weight First

Good knews - Learning how to pose for your body type is a skill! We often don't feel comfortable in front of the camera because we try to pose the same way we see other people posing, and, similar to diets, hair color, style and many other things, we are all unique and what works for some doesn't work for all.

My professional posing and lighting skills will help you feel good about the way you look in your photos just the way you are right now. Because you already look great. :)

I Haven't Done This Before

Most people haven't! That's where my expertise comes in. I'm here to guide you every step of that way so that you look comfortable and confident in your final images.

I Need My Images Soon!

Let's talk! I'm usually pretty good about getting clients in quick when there is a deadline approaching. Just let me know what you need and I'll always see what I can do.

I Can't Afford It

This is always a welcome conversation in our intro meeting. I want you to feel confident that you are getting what you need with the budget you have. If you are clear with me about what your budget is, I will help you understand what is available to you within that price point. Let's make it work!

Credit card payments and payment plans are also available options.
