Let's start with this…
The work of a small business owner is two-fold.
A constant balance of working IN your business with your clients and working ON your business to attract clients.
Oh, and working to build a life of freedom and adventure outside of your business (make that three-fold).
Putting a face to your brand is a must, but true brand photography goes beyond a crisp and styled headshot. True brand photography starts with research!
It looks at your ideal audience and their needs. It looks at you, your values, your work, and your personal style.
When we combine all of that, we get brand photos that tell your whole story.
- Zig Ziglar
Stand out from your competitors by using completely custom photos.
Highlight the aspects of your personality that make you human, that make you relatable.
Send a stronger message to your audience with photos that work WITH your content- not just compliment it.
Share your story and your values to connect with your audience on a deeper level.
Build brand recognition with consistent imagery.
Create a professional and trusted image in the eyes of your clients.
Working for yourself means there’s always that question in the back of your mind: "Where will my next paycheck come from?” That lingering thought makes us look extra carefully at ALL the investments we make for our business (as it should!) How would brand photography benefit your business (and your bottom line?)
Now, let's talk about the elephant in the room…
The day we’ve been waiting for is finally here! With a plan in place already we’ll dive into working & detail shots to craft a cohesive look. Our time together will be fun and relaxed. You’ll have your photos in hand within 2-3 weeks to start adding into your content.
You’ll complete a questionnaire to help me learn more about you and your brand. From there we’ll curate a plan for shots that need to be included, the message we want to convey, and of course the location and personal style elements. You’ll receive expert guidance on how to prepare for a confident, fun, and empowering session.
Let’s chat about your brand and session needs! I’ll send over an experience guide that includes even more details on options available to you. Once you’re ready to book we’ll make it official with a contract and payment.
Expert guidance on styling and session planning.
The perspective of a fellow business owner and the knowledge of a photographer with 15 over years of experience.
A collaborative and stress free process!!
Comfort in front of the camera, confidence in your look, and pride in your brand.
The possibilities here are truly endless! But the bottomline? We’ll shoot what your brand needs to convey. This could be anything from a behind the scenes look at you working on a project. It could be samples of your work or products. It might be your office space or shop where clients come to visit!

Let’s Make Sure All Of Your Questions Are Answered!
Do I Get More Than Just A Headshot?
Yes! The purpose behind branding photography sessions is to ensure that you have a variety of images to use for your social media & web presence as well as your print materials. I want you to be able to show a behind the scenes look at what you do!
How Do We Plan My Shoot?
The first thing I do after your contract is signed and the session fee is paid is send you an in-depth questionnaire about your business. After that I evaluate your social media & brand to see how you are using images at the present time. From there I send a guide out to help you plan for outfits, props and posing.
Where Can We Do The Shoot?
My studio in Bloomer is always a great choice if you don’t have somewhere in mind. But truly, it’s best to photograph you in your element. Your storefront, your office or an AirBNB location all work well as options, too! Want some downtown Eau Claire shots? Let’s do it. Have a favorite coffee shop that you spend a lot of time working at? Alright, I’m game!
Can We Add Filters Or Increase The Softness Of My Photos?
I strive to bring out your natural glowing radiance in each of your photos. Instagram has truly skewed our perception of reality and has driven us to want to feel perfectly polished. My hand-edited technique I can assure you will have you feeling absolutely stunning just as you already are. I steer clear of heavy filters and added softness in my photography.
How Can I Use My Images From The Session?
Your session fee includes a commercial license which allows you to have permission to use the photos on your website, print materials and social media. Magazines, publications or brands should contact me to purchase a license agreement.
How Will You Deliver My Images?
I will deliver your images digitally using an online gallery & link with a PIN where you can download either high resolution or web-size images.
Can I Buy More Images?
Want more than what’s included in the collections? Sure! Not a problem. There is an additional fee you can choose to purchase if you wish.
How Long Will It Take To Receive My Gallery Of Images?
I typically deliver galleries within 2-3 weeks of your session date. I also post a few sneak peek previews on social media that you can share & tag yourself in shortly after the session.
When Should I Book My Session?
I generally recommend booking your session 1-2 months in advance. This gives you time to really dig into the questionnaire to make sure you’re getting exactly what you need – and have time to pull together your wardrobe & props.
