Family Photo

Photographs are an integral part of the history and story of our families. This paper holds the beauty of our connections and the love that we share among the family. It is a treasure to document the way that we look and laugh and interact with each other. For many years and generations, the story of that day can be told and explained and relived. Our children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren will understand who they are and where they came from. Make sure your family is captured in a family photo this year! You’ll have a treasure to hold onto for a very long time.

Family Portraits for the Selinidis Family

Dee and her daughter-in-law inquired about an extended family photo session. We discussed the details and had an in-person consultation. They told me the story – all of the children and grandchildren and the pieces of their lives. I was able to see the joy and love in this family long before I ever met them in person. The family gathered together for this very special session and we had lots of fun with posed family portraits, silly string, the kitchen, and the garden. We all had a great time and there was lots of laughter! I’m so thrilled that Dee and her family will have these memories to look back on for years to come.

One outfit isn’t enough. Here’s why…

In branding sessions, we plan intentionally—from your wardrobe to your messaging—so your photos work everywhere your brand shows up.

I always recommend bringing multiple outfits: start with your most formal look and end with something more relaxed. This gives you a versatile set of images—perfect for everything from LinkedIn to your About page to your social media.

✨ Pro tip: Think layers, textures, and pieces that feel like you.

Let’s talk about it 👇🏻

When people land on your website or socials, they want to know who you are.

But when you rely on stock photos, you risk looking generic, disconnected, or even untrustworthy — and that could be costing you real opportunities.

Here are 5 reasons to book a professional branding session and invest in photos that are genuine and authentically you:

1️⃣ Build connection. Real faces build real trust.

2️⃣ Show your personality. Let your brand voice shine visually.

3️⃣ Stand out. Your competition is using the same stock photos. You deserve better.

4️⃣ Get consistency. Custom photos align with your colors, vibe, and messaging.

5️⃣ Boost confidence. When you love your photos, you show up more.

📩 Ready to ditch the stock and show up as the real you?

Contact me to book your branding consultation today! I’d love to help you elevate your presence.

Your face might be the reason someone hires you—or scrolls past.

The truth is, people make split-second decisions based on what they see. And if your photos don’t reflect who you are and what your business stands for, you might be missing the chance to really connect.

Branding photography isn’t about being flashy. It’s about showing up as YOU—clearly, confidently, and consistently. That’s what builds trust.

If you’re ready to create images that feel aligned with your brand and actually work across your website, social media, and marketing—I’d love to help.

If I had a dollar for every time a client said, “I’m not photogenic”… I could retire.

But here’s the truth:

That phrase? It’s not a fact.
It’s a story you’ve been telling yourself — one of those “little t” truths that feels real, but isn’t.

The real truth?
✨ You are photogenic.
📸 You just haven’t had someone help you see it yet.

Most of us aren’t perfectly symmetrical. Most of us feel awkward in front of the camera. That’s NORMAL.

But with the right lighting, posing, angles — and someone who knows how to bring out your best — that all changes.

You don’t need to look like anyone else.
You just need to feel like you.

And that’s where I come in. 💛

Ready to finally love the way you show up in photos? Contact me — I got you.

Want people to remember you? Start with this 👇🏻

Your face is your most powerful branding tool — and science backs it up. 🧠

We’re wired to recognize and remember faces, especially when we see them consistently. So if your headshot is outdated, inconsistent, or missing altogether… you could be missing out on real connections.

Here are 5 reasons to invest in a professional headshot that aligns with your brand:

1. First impressions happen online. Make yours count.

2. Visual consistency builds trust. People recognize what they see often.

3. A polished photo = instant credibility.

4. It helps people feel like they know you. Before you’ve even met.

5. Recognition = recall. Repetition helps people remember you.

We all recognize faces differently.

Some people never forget one. Others (me included!) might need a few reminders.

That’s exactly why consistency matters in branding—especially when it comes to your headshot.

Your face is part of your brand. When people see it often (and in the right context), it becomes familiar. Trusted. Memorable.

A great headshot isn’t just a pretty picture—it’s a tool that helps people connect with you before they’ve even met you.
