Let's Elevate Your Brand Together

Do you take headshots?

Branding sessions go in-depth to showcase the work you do behind the scenes in your business and your unique way of providing your signature services. These are a mix of BTS, lifestyle & a few traditional headshots sprinkled in intentionally styled & designed to connect with your ideal clients. 

Frequently Asked Questions

What's your photography style?

I am highly interactive with posing & laying out details during the Branding Experience! I'll work through our shoot plan that I'll share with you beforehand to make sure we're maximizing our time together so you have an incredible variety & depth in your final gallery!

How does the booking process work?

After we chat during our consult, we'll choose a date & collection that works best for your brand! After your proposal is signed & your retainer is paid, we start with the fun part of the process of planning for your session!

How do I know which collection will best fit the needs of my business?

This is why we'll hop on a consultation call! We'll chat through what your brands' needs are, what content and big projects you have rolling out over the next few quarters to figure out which collection would best serve you! 

How many images will I receive?

You'll receive an online gallery 3 weeks after our session with web-sized & full resolution JPG images. I usually average about 75 images per hour of shooting but it is dependent on how many outfit changes & location changes we have!

Will I be allowed to use my images to promote my brand, services & products?

Of course! You'll also receive your print release to print and share your images for your personal & commercial use. You'll have the ability to lightly retouch your images to cohesively fit in with your brand if you so desire. 

How do I decide locations for my brand shoot? Can I choose multiple?

I have a cohesive Locations List in my Branding Session Playbook. After chatting with you & familiarizing myself with your brand, I'd be more than happy to suggest a few for you to look into & book for our session together!

Do you help choose outfits and props for my session?

Yes, absolutely! My clients send me photos of outfits all the time when they need help narrowing down their options. I'll come up with a complete props & packing list for you to use 1 week before your session arrives so you can prep before!
