Questions to Ask Your Branding Photographer

Choosing the right branding photographer is pivotal for professionals looking to make a mark in their industry. With the essence of personal branding evolving, ensuring you collaborate with a branding photographer who aligns with your vision is crucial. Here are six vital questions to ask your branding photographer to guarantee your session not only meets but exceeds your expectations.

1. How Do I Know What Looks Flattering? Understanding what attire complements you best can be baffling. My premium package alleviates this stress by including a wardrobe consultation with a professional wardrobe consultant. This expert will guide you through selecting outfits that not only flatter but also align with your brand’s message and values.

2. Can I Bring More Than One Outfit? Variety is the spice of life—and your branding session. Multiple outfits allow for a dynamic range of photos, offering versatility for various platforms and purposes. I encourage bringing several options to ensure we capture the essence of your brand in multiple contexts.

3. Is It Normal to Be Nervous? Absolutely! It’s common to feel jittery about being in front of the camera. Remember, it’s my job to make you feel comfortable and confident. I strive to create a relaxed environment where you can truly shine, capturing your authentic self.

4. Where Is the Branding Session Located? The location of your branding session plays a significant role in conveying your brand’s narrative. Whether it’s your office, outdoors, or a studio space, I utilize platforms like PeerSpace and network with realtors to find ideal locations, such as model homes, that resonate with your brand’s aesthetic and ethos.

5. Is Hair and Makeup Included? Yes, to ensure you look and feel your best, I partner with professional hair and makeup artists. This service is included in my branding sessions, taking the guesswork out of preparing for your shoot and ensuring you look polished and professional.

6. What Should I Bring to My Branding Session? Props can significantly enhance the authenticity of your branding images. Items such as laptops, cell phones, tablets, pens, glasses, and any tools you use in your daily work activities help create a realistic and relatable image of your professional life.

Here's the truth 👇🏻

Your professional image is often the first impression potential clients and partners have of your expertise.

Starting 2026 with updated, polished headshots isn't just about looking good—it's about showing up with the credibility your experience deserves.

Whether it's for your website, LinkedIn, or your entire team's branding, professional imagery sends a clear message: you're serious about your business.

Ready to make 2026 your most credible year yet? 

Let's create headshots that match your expertise. Link in bio to schedule your consultation. 📸

You know what's quietly costing you clients? 👇🏼

 Inconsistent branding.

When your team's headshots are all over the place—different backgrounds, different lighting, some from 2019—it's doing more damage than you think:

❌ Confuses your audience 
❌ Makes your business feel less established 
❌ Creates hesitation before booking 
❌ Forces you to "reintroduce" yourself every time you post

But here's what happens when your visual branding is cohesive and professional:

✔️ Builds recognition over time 
✔️ Makes showing up online easier 
✔️ Reinforces professionalism 
✔️ Creates momentum and trust

This is why I bring headshot stations directly to your corporate events—your entire team gets updated, consistent imagery without anyone having to schedule 47 individual appointments.

One session. Cohesive branding. Done.

You don't need to BE confident to show up for a headshot session. The session creates the confidence.

Most professionals avoid updating their headshots because they think they need to feel confident first. But that's backwards. 

My clients are always surprised by how great their photos look—and that instant confidence boost changes how they show up in their business.

Here's what happens when you work with me: 👇🏼

→ I guide your posing so you look natural and professional
→ I direct your expression so your personality shines through
→ I handle the lighting so you look polished and approachable
→ You walk away with imagery that makes you feel like the expert you already are

You don't need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. That's my job. Your job is just to show up.

Ready to stop waiting until you "feel confident enough"? Let's create the confidence together.

Here's the truth 👇🏻

Most professionals avoid headshots because they're scared it'll feel awkward, forced, or fake.

But here's what happens when you skip it ⬇️

❌ Outdated LinkedIn profiles
❌ Inconsistent team branding
❌ Missed opportunities to build instant credibility.

Your headshot isn't just a photo. It's your first impression working 24/7 across every platform where your business shows up.

Ready to get this handled without the stress? Let's create headshots that actually represent the confident professional you are.
