I was practically obsessed with her headshots which means her VIP day is gonna be 🔥

I had the distinct pleasure of doing headshots for THEE Songstress Alesia Miller.
She was an absolute blast to work with and took all my queues perfectly. We made some magic together! 💜
Don’t miss the next Headshot Mini Session Weekend!

Why don’t I release unedited images??
I am particular about what I put my name on so sending out unedited images just isn’t my thing. There’s always a little something that needs to be done to every image before it leaves my hands.
Just a little sneak peek at what my editing looks like.

In my personal opinion…..
I don’t expect my clients to know how to pose during a photoshoot. I mean, if that’s one of the reasons they came to me in the first place right!?
Unfortunately, all photographers are not created equal so I always recommend that you do your due diligence before booking to ensure your session will be what you expect.
Do you expect your photographer to provide you with posing guidance during your photoshoot or do you come ready for the camera?

Successful Branding Sessions take proper planning! 📝
When planning for a branding session it’s important to ensure you assess everything! Deciding hair, makeup and what you’re going to wear are the surface level things. Take time to do a deep dive on what images you really need to grow your brand!

These 3 things changed the game of Entrepreneurship for me!
1️⃣ I spent too much time trying to do ALL the things instead of focusing on what made me happy.
2️⃣ Discovery Chats keep me from booking clients that aren’t a match for me and my services. It’s reduced the headaches and the coulda, woulda, shoulda’s!
3️⃣ I wanted my clients to have a great client experience and I realized that increasing my rates would allow me the space to give my clients more time, better service and ultimately not burn me out trying to manage too much.
I would truly love to assist you in building the business of your dreams!

🎥 NOW OFFERING LIMITED VIDEO SERVICES
Yes, I quietly added #video services to the arsenal this year.
Why?
Because my clients have been asking and I push hard to support them in a multitude of ways to help them really build their brand. While I don’t consider myself a full-blown #videographer, I definitely have some skills in video that can support my clients with their #brand growth.
So why not add video? 🤷🏾♀️
We’ve added:
🔸Video Shorts
🔸Digital Content Videos
🔸Promotional Videos
Are you ready to dive in on your brand in 2023? I’m patiently waiting…

May 2023 be filled with many blessings!
I’m always going to be an advocate for creating strong brand visuals which includes fresh new eye-catching, strategic branding images but I’m equally as passionate about making sure you have an actual brand strategy.
In the past, clients would book a branding session with me but have absolutely no idea what type of images they needed let alone how they planned to use their images.
It’s important to have a clear #brand #strategy and know who your ideal audience is to ensure what you’re creating is going to communicate the right message and capture their attention.
It’s the reason why I created my Brand Photoshoot Planning Workbook. My branding sessions range from 1 hour sessions to half days and we don’t #photograph that long just to have “cute” #branding #photos. We look at your current brand, your goals, what you want to communicate and from there craft a session to create the visuals you need.

The other side of my business is luxury maternity + motherhood portraits. I focus on providing my clients with luxury keepsake heirloom items that can be passed down from generation to generation. While digital files can be great they aren’t priceless until they’ve been printed.
I wanted to quickly share with you 2 of the primary luxury products I offer my clients in my collections.

Nothing about my #brand #photography process is “quick” so if that’s what you’re looking for I’m going to refer you.
My goal with brand photography is to ensure you have beautiful, strong and strategic branding photos to use that will help you elevate your brand, showcase yourself as the expert you are and gain the attention of your ideal client.
My brand photography process has a pre-work component to help me understand your brand better and ensure we both are clear on the goals of the session. We plan props, locations, outfits and what types of images are needed for your website, social media and other business collateral you may have.
My clients are pleasantly surprised when they find out everything that I offer. Interested in learning more? Click the link to schedule a Discovery Chat.

Meet Chloe Simelton, The Knotless Guru and owner of Royal Crowns n Kinks
Chloe came to me last year while she was working on building her business. Chloe dived in immediately for her brand knocking out her homework (yes homework) and anything else I added to make sure she had some clarity on her brand. We had her branding session (which was amazing by the way) and then moved on to the creation of some graphics for the brand to begin her transformation.
We are currently in website development now and I can’t wait to share with you what we have been working on. Launch date coming soon!
If you’re looking for long-lasting protective hairstyles to help support hair growth and save you time take a minute and slide on over to her IG @royalcrowns_nkinks
She currently services Wisconsin AND Arizona.
