Headshot sessions are a great start and the very minimum you need to get your image out there for Linkedin, social media avatar photos, your email signature in the business world. For actors and realtors, a headshot is truly your calling card!

Branding sessions feature a mix of a headshots, lifestyle/posed/candid photos, as well as detail shots. Headshots capture your headshot and branding sessions truly tell and communicate the different sides of your persona and business. If you need photos for a new website, social media, marketing materials, or maybe even to just have fun, a branding session is right for you.
Now, more than ever, your online presence matters and is the first impression people will get about your business. Within seconds, a prospect will form an opinion and decide if you and your business is trustworthy. Branding photos can help establish this person's trust and help you earn business by letting them glimpse your world. The more client sees you in your "natural habitat" or "behind the scenes," the more connected they will feel to you and your business. At the end of the day, these images "sell" you to the potential client and can be one of your most powerful marketing tools.
 
On a lighter note, (and something nobody tells you about branding), branding sessions are empowering and fun when done right. You spend a day feeling and looking your best, being directed, and captured in most flattering light and angles. You gain confidence and guarantee to feel great by the end of the shoot.

My packages include digital images. The amount of digitals you receive varies based on the package you select. Additional images can always be purchased separately.

Yes, I work with the most loyal, talented, and fun hair and make-up pros in the business. I'm happy to arrange their services at any shoot. Most clients benefit from having one present at the shoot to change looks, hair, touch-up as needed and make you feel your most beautiful self which, in turn, helps your confidence during the shoot.

Yes! I have you bring lots of choices (but not the whole closet) with you and we will choose,  style, and try items on before we start the shoot.

I recommend creating a "moodboard" with images that inspire you. Think about the looks/outfits you want to try out. Do your shopping in advance. Try your clothes on before coming in and make sure everything is ironed and folded neatly. Pack everything the day before so you don’t feel rushed on the day of the shoot. Make sure your nails and toes are neat and ready too! 

Practice posing and expressions in front of the mirror - just not the duck face please! 🤣
Get a good night's sleep and drink plenty of water. Stay away from alcohol the night before. Have a healthy breakfast as your energy will be needed at the shoot. Bring a good attitude, mood, and smiles with you!

Don’t try new haircuts or colors right before the shoot - as this is not the time to experiment. Be careful with tanning and spray tanning. You don’t want to look orange or have weird tan lines. 
Lots of (ironed) clothing choices, shoes, undergarments, jewelry, belts. I recommend bringing some healthy snacks to keep your energy up, your water bottle, a charger for your phone, and your favorite playlist. 

If you’re using any props/products for your business, bring those along with a laptop. 

If you’re doing your own makeup, have your makeup bag and/or hair products with your to touch up. If you’re working with our make-up/hair team – all you need is clean hair and face 😊

Yes! That’s one of my specialties! I will teach you posing tricks to look slimmer or fuller, bring attention to your favorite features and help hide imperfections.

Both. I have a studio with various backdrops available where you can get clean/crisp and beautifully lit branding and business portraits. I also travel to location often to tell a more in-depth story of my clients and their business. Depending on your business, I can recommend which option would fit you best.

No, no, and no. Life is short, shit happens – make a shoot happen instead and we'll make sure you feel your best!
