Is Your Brand Telling the Right Story? 📖

For many business owners, the marketing to-do list is never-ending. In the rush, it's all too easy to lose sight of our brand’s core narrative.

We often see the world through a blurry lens, forgetting that every brand has a powerful story meant to inspire and connect.

Are you telling a new story or stuck in the old one? 🤔

Intentional branding goes far beyond aesthetics—it reshapes markets, sets trends, and transforms societies. When your personal brand aligns with your values and your true self, it can lead to greater personal satisfaction and a sense of wholeness.

🗣️“When we choose to view life's challenges as opportunities for growth and connectivity, we become beacons of positivity in a world that often seems blurry."

Ready to shift perspectives and shape the future with your brand? ✨

I'm not going to lie, but I was looking for jobs when the pandemic hit.

I thought I'd unsubscribed from most job posting sites. Whichever this one is, they certainly got it all wrong—very wrong! However, I've never been super confident with my math skills, but for a second there I thought 🤔 "maybe I could be a banker." I have the right experience after all. 😃

Should I explore it? 😂

Nothing quite captures the essence of a lifestyle like photography. 📸

It can include elements of other types of photography, such as portraiture, street, and editorial photography.

As brands increasingly strive ⬆️ to forge deeper connections with their audiences, leveraging lifestyle photography emerges as a powerful tool to narrate your brand's story visually.

I had a profound dream this morning about death and rebirth.

🫴 Step into my fine art gallery and my world…

I’ve been so stuck with an outdated perception of who I am, and it no longer serves me. Even though I’ve defined my persona quite thoroughly, this old outfit keeps covering my soul. I am ready to let it go.

✨I’m entering a stage of rebirth, rejuvenation, and creative expression. ✨

❤️❤️❤️❤️ Who wants to join me? ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I am looking for collaborators to go on a journey with me to raise and bring forth the divine feminine. This is a rebirth back home to the original source of our true essence, which gives us the internal power to believe in ourselves and share our love by helping others to revive and rebuild the life they were meant to live.

This has been the story of my life and possibly the primary lesson I’ve had to learn.

These images were an assignment from college. They are cyanotypes exposed to the sun. I photographed the images with 35mm film and then created large lithograph negatives. I spread an emulsion of cyanide on a sheet of paper, exposed it outside on a sunny day, and then fixed it in a darkroom. I was 22 when I created these.

This effect is nothing Photoshop or AI can ever accomplish. Not because of how the images look but because the true meaning behind what they stand for is 1000% unique and can never be duplicated.

I fully believe these images were meant to illustrate this precise moment of my life. Even though they were taken over 30 years ago, this is who I was.

🎞️ Slide 2 Title: Unseen But Safe
🎞️ Slide 3 Title: Death of a Loved One

💕✨ Embracing 2024 with confidence and a little Badassery!

✨ Have I got someone special to introduce you to today!

Meet Kelsey Barba of All In Perspective, the incredible paralegal and mobile notary extraordinaire who has stolen my photography-loving heart! 💕📸

One of my favorite places to photograph 📷 Downtown SLO . ❤️ The streets are filled with charming shops, cozy cafes, and vibrant local businesses that reflect the unique spirit of this city.

As Kelsey and I strolled through the streets, the energy of downtown San Luis Obispo became the perfect backdrop for our photoshoot.

However, without a plan, we could spend all day photographing. So our goal was to hit three spots: Kruezbergs, a city street with brick, and the SLO County Courthouse.

I had the absolute pleasure of capturing Kelsey’s vibrant and enchanting spirit through my lens! 😍✨ The camera loves her!

Have a safe New Year's Eve.

For 2024, I wish for everyone's dreams to come true. This may be a challenging year for some of us.

The key to transformation is believing it can happen and being clear about what it is you want out of life.

You may need to make a BIG decision about something this year. But, know that as long as you know what you want to experience out of life, you will ultimately choose the right path.

❤️ LOVE YOU ALL ❤️

📸 You won't believe the hilarity between ChatGpt and me! 😂 Brace yourselves for this epic story! 🙌

All right, I was editing photographs from a project, and one image caught my eye. A young man sitting in a golf cart holding a gin and tonic. I thought it was so cute, so I asked ChatGpt to come up with a 1970s gin ad set on a golf course, and OH BOY, did it deliver! 🏌️‍♂️🍸 Prepare yourselves! 📽️✨

I made one mistake. I asked for an Ad, and I should have asked for a slogan. But it gave me what I asked for: an entire commercial script for a very campy 1970s gin ad. 😂⛳️🍸⛳️

You have to read the entire script.

Go to my blog ginici.com/best-chatgpt-answer
it’s a quick read.

Now, I had a challenge. Because I still needed a slogan to put on the photograph. So, I had to find the slogan from the ad. Let me know if I chose the right one.

Share with me in the comments if ChatGpt has ever tickled your funny bone with its outrageous responses!

Let's embrace the silliness and keep those laughs rolling! 😆🎉

Women are constantly faced with a multitude of expectations and societal norms when it comes to their appearance and self-perception.
� 🙏 DON’T FALL VICTIM TO OVERGENERALIZED LABELING!

We all have a distorted view of ourselves in some way. The self-image we hold in our mind's eye is based primarily on the opinions of others. Our parents, social spheres, and culture have manipulated us into believing we must look and act a specific way to be attractive, likable, and accepted.

Even when a label is untrue, we consider it factual. 😔 Sometimes, we make additional assessments and create beliefs based on others' behavior.

The best version of YOU is accepting and integrating all the characteristics you deny and reject about yourself. ♥️

If you want to successfully present an authentic and dynamic personal brand to the world, you must start realizing you already are one.

My "Aha Moment" About What Personal Branding Is.

I've been specializing in brand photography since 2015, and it wasn't until 2020 that I realized I was doing it all wrong. I was good at branding others but completely off for myself. I was too close to my brand and had no idea how to share my value.

It doesn't matter what you do, your level of success, or even if you have a business; everyone has a personal brand. A brand starts when anyone declares their mission, vision, and expertise in any field or purpose.

Personal branding is how we present our value to the world. Whether you're a business owner or not, we step into the role as "the face of our brand.”

Please read our full Blog to learn more about the secrets to personal branding.

Personable, radiant, positive, spiritually connected,
passionate, knowledgeable, dedicated, growth, and
respect.

With every branding client I define the persons brand
blueprint and then create a mood board as a visual
representation of ideas, themes, and emotions that
captures a project's overall aesthetic and direction. Its
purpose is to communicate your vision and ensure
everyone involved, including designers and
stakeholders, is on the same page from the beginning.

Do you all think we nailed it on the blueprint?

Another important woman In The News.

If you’re getting noticed by the press, 📰 let me know, I can help.

Chairwoman Violet Sage Walker is the Tribal Chair of the Northern Chumash Tribal Council, and the nominator of the Proposed Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary.

“The Chumash’s effort to secure a federal marine sanctuary comes as many members are also attempting to reclaim other elements of their history.”Washington Post

It was a pleasure working with her. And I loved photographing at the stable in Arroyo Grande.

For more information about Violet and the preservation project go to chumashsanctuary.org
