Why Hire an Event Photographer?

All events require planning and attention to many, many details.  Depending on the type and size of the event, those details can quickly overwhelm the event planner.  Hiring an event photographer is a great idea!  Here are a few reasons why:

  1. The event photographer will capture all of those details that you’ve meticulously planned!  She will also capture the decisive moments that make the event special.
  2. If you hire an event photographer, you can take care of the other details for the event or actually just enjoy the event yourself!
  3. After the event is over, you’ll have an entire gallery of images from the smallest detail to the biggest moments of the event.  You and your guests can relive those moments and enjoy them again and again.

Grand Opening for Spring Cypress Assisted Living

Calvin contacted me about photographing the grand opening for Spring Cypress Assisted Living.  First, I arrived to find that there were a number of people already flooding in the doors.  The valets were already running around!  People mingled inside as they munched on appetizers and socialized.  The chef was busy preparing dinner but a full bar and snacks were already prepared.  Then, Calvin introduced himself and the key management team.  Next, they honored the family who sold the land to be used for the facility.  A ribbon cutting with the Chamber of Commerce followed.  After dinner, families were able to tour the facility and model rooms that were beautifully decorated.  It was a beautifully successful grand opening and an event that will be remembered by families who were able to visit that night.

We live in a visual world.

Whether you're a realtor, doctor, lawyer, therapist, or personal trainer—your headshot is often someone’s first impression of you.

And in industries where trust is everything… a blurry selfie or outdated photo just won’t cut it.

📸 Here’s why a professional headshot matters:
✅ It instantly communicates professionalism and credibility
✅ It builds connection and approachability
✅ It makes you stand out in a sea of competition
✅ It reflects the quality of service you provide

And the truth is—clients, employers, and collaborators are checking your profile before they ever reach out. What they see should reflect the real you… polished, confident, and ready to show up.

Your headshot isn’t just a photo—it’s part of your brand.

Let’s make it work for you.

📩 Contact me to book your headshot session or ask about upcoming availability!

Here's your answer 👇🏻

Sometimes it’s the smallest edits that make the biggest impact.

In this before-and-after, I removed the glare from my client’s glasses—not to change who they are, but to make sure their eyes (and confidence) shine through without distraction.

This is a perfect example of what thoughtful editing is all about:
💻 Not heavy filters.
🚫 Not reshaping your features.
✔️ Just refining the details so you feel like the best version of yourself.

From lens glare to flyaway hairs, subtle skin retouching to wardrobe clean-up—I handle the behind-the-scenes so you can focus on showing up relaxed and confident.

Because when you feel good in front of the camera, it shows.

📸 Want a headshot or branding photo that feels like YOU—just a little more polished? Let’s talk. I’d love to work with you.

Here’s the truth…

People decide if they want to work with you in seconds - and your visuals do the talking.

If you’re not attracting the right clients, take a look at your branding:

✔️ If your photos don’t reflect your brand, then potential clients won’t see your value.

✔️ If your online imagery is inconsistent, then it can be hard to build trust.

✔️ If you’re not showing yourself in your content, then clients miss the chance to connect with you.

✨ The good news? I can fix all of that.

With a personalized branding session, we’ll create a collection of images that reflect your personality, your professionalism, and your purpose—so the right clients see you and say yes.

👉 Contact me if you’re ready to elevate your brand and start booking the clients who truly get you.
