Turning ONE!

Birthdays are special events and turning ONE is a very special birthday indeed! Toddlers and parents definitely enjoy this birthday party surrounded by family and friends. For the party you first secure a location, date, time, and theme for the party. You plan all of the tiny details from the cake to the cookies, food, decorations, party favors, and entertainment. Hiring a professional photographer will ensure that all of those details are beautifully captured to remember for generations. You can finally enjoy the first birthday party that you’ve planned for your baby. Enjoy and be in the moment!

Aliza is ONE!

I photographed Aliza’s baptism several months ago and now she has turned ONE! Grandma’s house was the perfect location for her first birthday party. Aliza’s ONE-derland was in full effect. First, as guests entered the home, they were invited to write a sweet note to Aliza on her first birthday. A photo booth for Mom and her friends was another popular spot. The bouncy house in the backyard was full of kids during the entire party. Parents and grandparents ate lunch and socialized. Then finally it was time for cake and then the pinata. I absolutely adore the look on Aliza’s face when she realized the sweet goodness of her cake!

A strong personal brand isn’t just about having professional photos—it’s about aligning your image with your expertise, your achievements, and your next chapter. And working with Danielle made it clear: she’s just getting started.

Here’s the thing—your brand is always evolving.

You might be offering new services, connecting with a different audience, or stepping more confidently into your role as a business owner. But if your photos still reflect where you were years ago, they’re not telling the right story anymore.

📸 Great branding photography isn’t just about looking polished—it’s about feeling aligned.

Because strong, consistent visuals:

✨ Build instant trust

✨ Make your business look cohesive and professional

✨ Help your dream clients see themselves working with you

Your photos should support the business you’ve grown into—not hold you back from where you’re going next.

If you’re ready to elevate your brand, attract the right clients, and finally feel like your photos match your message—I’d love to help you get there.

When’s the last time you updated your brand photos? 🤔👇🏼

If your visuals don’t reflect how far you’ve come, you might be missing out on opportunities to connect with your ideal clients.

When Kristina and Brett—owners of a growing bookkeeping business—came to me, they were in the middle of a full rebrand. New website, new messaging, and yes… new photos! 📸

Their session wasn’t just about headshots. It was about telling the real story of who they are, how they serve small business owners, and why they love what they do.

We captured clean professional portraits and behind-the-scenes moments that brought their entire brand to life.

✨ Your brand should evolve with you—and your visuals should make people feel something the moment they land on your website.

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.

🚨 Spoiler Alert: YES. But HOW depends entirely on what you do.

Whether you`re leading a boardroom, welcoming clients into a cozy therapy space, or closing deals in real estate, your headshot should reflect the story you want to tell - and the trust you want to build.

Swipe through to see how professionals across five very different industries can make powerful first impressions through strategic styling, posture, and background.

Because it`s not just about looking good - it`s about looking right for your audience.

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.
