Portraits for CURE

CURE is a publication about cancer survivors. The typical publication honors the care-givers during cancer treatment and the massive impact that they make on their patients. It highlights nurses providing extraordinary care during one of scariest times in a person’s life. A simple glance, a double-check on a patient’s status, and a caring word go a long way towards helping a patient cope and giving hope for a quick recovery. So many people have been affected by cancer. The stories highlighted in this publication and a testiment to the good of human beings.

Portraits for Constance

The story surrounding Constance is a little different. Her story is all about her. She is a cancer survivor and was so moved by the volunteers at her hospital that she immediately began volunteering when her treatment was complete. Volunteers provided that warmth and care that she needed at the exact moment when she needed it. They knew that a simple word or gesture was all that it took to give someone hope. A volunteer shared her own experience with cancer as she sat with Constance. Her words brought comfort in a time of high stress and anxiety. It meant everything to her. Only months after the end of her treatment, Constance was volunteering. After meeting her and witnessing her energy and enthusiasm for life, I know she will provide others with the comfort and hope that they need! I’m so touched and honored to know these extraordinary humans. I walk with you as you walk with others.

You’re not supposed to know what to do in front of the camera—that’s my job. 🙌🏼

I’ll tell you where to put your hands, how to angle your body, when to shift your weight, where to look, and yes… I’ll probably demonstrate it myself first. 😂

Good posing isn’t about memorizing a bunch of complicated positions. It’s about making small adjustments that help you look confident, approachable, and like yourself.

And if you want a little head start before your next headshot or branding session, I put together a free guide with 5 Power Poses Every Professional Should Know.

These are simple poses you can use for professional photos, speaking engagements, events, or anytime a camera gets pointed your way.

📸 Grab the free guide through the link in my bio—and save this reel as proof that you will never be left standing in front of my camera wondering what to do with your hands. 😂

I’ve been a photographer for a long time, and somewhere along the way I realized the photos are only part of what I get to create. 🤍

I get to help someone who hates being photographed finally feel comfortable in front of the camera.

I get to help business owners show up confidently for the brands they’ve worked so hard to build.

Yes, I make photographs.

But I also get to create confidence, connection, and something worth holding onto.

And I think that’s a pretty great way to make a living. 📸

Ready to create something of your own? Whether you need updated headshots, fresh branding photos, senior portraits, or family photos, I’d love to have you in front of my camera.

If your team is constantly changing… this is worth knowing. 👇🏼

Group photos can be one of the hardest things to keep updated—especially for businesses with high turnover, growing teams, or people who aren’t always in the same place at the same time.

That’s where a group composite comes in.

Instead of trying to coordinate everyone for one big photo, I photograph each person individually—so you get cohesive, professional headshots—and then build the group image from there.

The biggest benefit?

When someone joins or leaves your team, you don’t have to start over. We simply update the composite—no need to reschedule a full team session.

It’s a much more flexible (and realistic) way to keep your team looking consistent and up to date.

If your team photos have been on your to-do list, this might be the solution you’ve been looking for.

🤝🏼 Meet Danielle Woods

Danielle is a powerhouse in the world of HR technology—helping companies around the globe turn HR into a high-impact, value-driving part of their business. As a Global Director of People Technology and Workday strategist, she’s led digital transformations across 40+ countries and supported companies through major milestones like M&As and IPOs. 🚀

This is Danielle’s third branding session with me—and that’s something I always love to see.

Because your brand isn’t static. As your business grows and evolves, your visuals should reflect that.

For Danielle’s last two sessions, we worked in a professional studio setting. This time, she wanted something more relaxed and personal—so we turned her home into the backdrop.

And that shift matters. Your photos should match not just what you do, but how you show up now.

Updating your branding isn’t about starting over—it’s about staying aligned with where your business is today.

Danielle, thank you for trusting me (again) to capture your brand. 🤍

2027 graduates… this is your moment. ✨👇🏻

Senior year comes up faster than you think—and before you know it, calendars are full and you’re trying to squeeze something in last minute.

The best sessions happen when there’s time to plan.
Time to choose the right location, the right outfits, and create photos that actually feel like you.

Every senior you see here had a session that was intentional, relaxed, and built around who they are.

That’s what makes the difference.

If you’re part of the Class of 2027 (or the parent of), now is the time to start thinking about your session.

If you’re just starting a photography business… you need to watch this.

I recently showed up to a headshot session at an office building with all my gear—ready to go—and security wouldn’t let me in.

Not because anything was wrong… but because there was a miscommunication, and I didn’t have a certificate of insurance on file with the building.

It’s one of those things you don’t think about when you’re first starting out—but it matters.

As you grow and start booking more corporate or on-location sessions, these small admin details become part of the job.

Clear communication with your client (or their admin team) ahead of time can save you a lot of stress on shoot day.

👉🏻 If you’re in that stage of figuring everything out, I’ve put together a few resources to help you avoid mistakes like this—grab them in my bio.

What’s something you’ve learned the hard way on a shoot? 🤔⬇️
