Recent Headshot Sessions

Meghan works for King Ranch and wanted a headshot that reflected not only her personality but her job as well. During her Executive Headshot Session, we photographed her in several jacket options and her hat! I absolutely love this combination of her hat and green jacket!

In Part 3 of our mic’d-up series... 👇🏼

— we’re taking you even deeper behind the scenes. 📸

The posing cues, lighting tweaks, and real-time direction aren’t just “nice touches” — they’re what turn great shots into professional branding assets you’ll actually use.

Branding sessions aren’t just about photos. They’re about creating a library of content that elevates your website, social media, and marketing materials — all while staying true to your personality and brand energy.

My clients are always surprised by how effortless it feels when guidance, strategy, and personality come together on camera. 

You don’t need to be a model — you just need to show up. I’ll handle the rest.

Here's why a branding session should be on your 2026 business to-do list:👇🏼

Fresh professional photos aren't just about looking polished (though that's nice too). 

Think about it: Your website needs updated imagery. Your social media needs consistent visuals. Your email signature needs a current headshot. Your speaking proposals need professional photos. Your media kit needs variety.

Without a strategic branding session, you're either:

❌ Using the same 3 photos on repeat (hello, stale feed)

❌ Scrambling with last-minute iPhone selfies that don't match your brand

❌ Wasting time every month trying to create new content

A solid branding session gives you dozens of professional images you can pull from all year long. Different backgrounds, different outfits, different vibes—all ready to go when you need them.

Stop recreating the wheel every time you need a visual. Get it done once, use it everywhere.

Ready to stock your content vault? Let's talk strategy.

Behind every great brand photo is a whole lot of collaboration, laughter, and intention.

You don’t need to be a model—you need a photographer who knows how to guide, coach, and bring out the energy that aligns with your brand.

In Part 2 of Danielle’s mic’d-up session, we’re showing more behind-the-scenes of what it really looks like when strategy and personality come together on camera.

✨ This is branding photography done with purpose.

Marketing managers, be honest 👇🏻

How consistent are your team's LinkedIn profiles right now?

Take a quick scroll through your company's employee profiles.

Are you seeing:
→ Different backgrounds and lighting styles?
→ Photos that look like they're from different decades?
→ Some professional shots mixed with casual selfies?
→ A few people still using their college graduation photo?

Here's what happens when your team headshots are all over the place: Your company looks disorganized. Less credible. Less professional than your competitors.

Your team's visual consistency directly impacts how clients perceive your business.

The solution? Event-based headshot sessions that give your entire team cohesive, professional imagery in one efficient appointment.

✨ Same lighting, same style, same professional quality
✨ Everyone photographed at your office during a corporate event
✨ Private galleries so each team member controls their image
✨ Done in hours, not months of scheduling chaos

Is your team due for updated headshots? Let's make it happen.

Doesn't this look fun? 🤩 📸

The posing cues. The lighting adjustments. The real-time direction that turns good shots into professional brand assets.

Here's what most business owners don't realize: branding sessions aren't just about getting photos - they're about creating strategic content you'll actually use across your website, social media, and marketing materials.

One efficient session = months of professional imagery that elevates your entire business presence.

This one is for the corporate admins 👇🏻

Is coordinating individual headshot appointments your nightmare?

Here's what usually happens:

❌ Chasing down 15+ team members for availability
❌ Booking separate sessions across multiple weeks
❌ Dealing with cancellations and rescheduling chaos
❌ Inconsistent photos because everyone went at different times
❌ The whole process takes MONTHS

Here's the solution I built specifically for this problem:

✅ Event-based headshot station at YOUR office
✅ Everyone photographed in one efficient session
✅ Consistent lighting and style across your entire team
✅ Private proof galleries so each person controls their image
✅ The whole thing is done in hours, not months

You handle the calendar invite. I handle everything else.

Is your team due for updated headshots? Let's make it happen without the scheduling chaos.

DM me or use the link in bio to schedule a consultation. Let me walk you through exactly how this works.
