Branding Images for Authors

Many authors need photography for websites, promotional materials, and social media in anticipation of a book launch.  Imagery can be a powerful tool for telling the story before you “tell the story”.  It helps to draw the audience in and get them excited about what is to come in the book.  First, consider your audience and the nature of the story.  Use those things to select location, wardrobe, and props to help.  Make a plan for images with your photographer.  Then, relax and have fun during your photography session – this will show your authentic, true self to your audience.  Finally, enjoy the success of the imagery, marketing, and book launch with a cohesive message.

Session with Jenny

Jenny had her hair and makeup done and then we had a fantastic time with headshots and branding images.  She’s launching a new book and needed some photography for promotion purposes.  I love that she incorporated her book into some of the images.  It’s so personal and authentic!

You don’t just get a few photos…

You get a full set of images you can actually use—
for your website, your content, your launches, and everything in between.

Because as a coach, you are your brand.
And the way you show up visually matters more than most people realize.

My goal isn’t just to take good photos—
it’s to help you feel confident, natural, and aligned in how you present yourself.

📩 If you’ve been putting off branding photos, this is your sign—link in bio to start planning.
Mid-session. Camera in hand. Client in front of me…
and suddenly my camera starts throwing error codes.

I turn it off. Pull the battery. Take the card out.
Put everything back in and hope it works again.

And then it happens again.

Three memory cards failed on me during that shoot.

After that, I switched to Sony Tough cards—and haven’t had an issue since.

It’s one of those things you don’t think about… until you’re in a high-pressure moment and your gear has to perform.

📥 If you’re a photographer and want a breakdown of the gear I actually use and trust, I’ve put together a guide—link in bio.

👇🏼 But I'm curious, what cards have been working for you?
It’s never just pressing a button.

It’s reading the room.
Adjusting in real time.
Knowing how to bring out confidence—even when someone feels uncomfortable in front of the camera.

The technical side matters.
But the connection, the instinct, and the ability to see what others don’t… that’s what turns it into something more.

📩 If you’re ready for photos that feel like you, you can book through the link in my bio.
