What’s my go-to playlist for photoshoots, you ask? Oh, let me tell you!!!

Right now, it’s Noah Kahan radio on repeat. Those vibes? Chef’s kiss. Perfect for setting the mood in the studio—chill enough to keep things relaxed but just the right amount of hype to keep the energy flowing.

And for editing?

One of my clients recently put me onto Lane 8, and OMG, where has this been all my life?!
It’s like instant creativity fuel. Just me, my laptop, and the music doing its thing while I sprinkle magic on your photos.

Now it’s your turn—what’s your ultimate vibe playlist? What songs make you feel like the main character or help you get in the zone?

So you’ve sent the ‘I need branding photos!’ message… now what?!
I've got the tea, and it is PIPIN'

1️⃣ We Chat:
You slide into my inbox, we talk all the deets, and once your date is locked in—BOOM—it’s happening!!!

2️⃣ The Plan:
We hop on Zoom, and I ask ALL the questions. Your brand? Your goals? Your vibe? We’re mapping out a shot list, picking props, planning outfits, and locking in locations. Basically, this is where we make everything scream "YOU."

3️⃣ Shoot Day:
Lights. Camera. YOU. I’ll guide you through every pose, prompt, and angle to make sure you feel like a total boss. By the time we’re done, you’ll be thinking, “Wait, am I a model?!?” (Spoiler: YES, yes you are).

4️⃣ Editing Magic:
While you’re out living your best life, I’m sprinkling my editing fairy dust to make sure every image is on point.

5️⃣ Final Gallery:
Two weeks later—TA-DA! Your proof gallery arrives, and it’s like Christmas morning. You pick your faves, I polish them to perfection, and they’re YOURS. Website? Social? Billboard? The possibilities are endless.

Here’s the thing:
Branding photos aren’t just picture...

THEY ARE:
YOUR story
YOUR personality
YOUR energy

all bottled up into pure photo magic.

Common Photoshoot Myths… Let’s Debunk These Lies!

🚫 “Editing can fix everything.”
Listen, Photoshop is good, but it’s not a fairy godmother!! Unflattering outfits? Poor posture? Rushed prep? No amount of editing can magically erase those. The real magic? Getting it right in the moment! That’s where the magic happens, and trust me, we’ll make it amazing.

🚫 “I should wait for the perfect time or weight.”
Ugh, no. Just no! The “perfect time” is a myth. The right time? It’s right now!! Celebrate who you are in this moment—because this chapter of your story deserves to be captured just as it is. No more waiting, okay?!

🚫 “Natural poses mean no direction.”
Oh, even the most candid shots need a little guidance. And that’s where I come in! 👋 I’ll show you exactly how to pose so you look natural, relaxed, and like the star you are. Effortless vibes? Unlocked!!!

Now that we've got that nonsense out of the way... Let’s make some photo magic!

Branding photos? Oh, honey, they’re SO much more than just headshots.

This isn’t about stiff poses and awkward smiles—it’s about capturing the MAGIC that makes you, YOU!

Your energy.
Your vibe.
Your "I’m here to take over the world" personality.

Whether we’re soaking up that dreamy studio light or hanging out at your favorite coffee shop, the goal is simple: photos that scream, “Yes, this is ME!”

Because let’s be real—real connections happen when you show up as your authentic self.

The quirky, bold, unapologetically awesome version of you.
And THAT is what we’re capturing.

HEY, SENIOR!!

Let’s talk about the most important thing you need to know for your session…
I’VE. GOT. YOU.

I know being in front of the camera can feel weird...
Like, where do you put your hands?
What do you do with your feet?!
Is this even my face?!

Don’t worry, that’s TOTALLY NORMAL!
I’ll guide you through everything—no awkwardness, no stress.

Here’s how it’s gonna go: I shoot fast, we keep it moving, and pretty soon you’ll forget you’re even posing.

Those jitters? GONE. BYE. SEE YA! 👋

The goal? To capture YOUR style and personality, so your job is simple: Just. Be. YOU. If you want, bring your ride-or-die bestie—the one who makes you laugh so hard you snort—because let’s be real, they’re gonna bring the energy we need!!! 🎉

This is your time to shine, so let’s make it FUN. Ready to slay your senior session?! LET’S GO!!!

Alright, let’s talk WARDROBE!
Because what you wear can totally make or break your photos, and we’re not here to play it safe, okay?!

Structured clothing? YES. Always.
It gives those clean, polished lines that make you look like the BOSS you are.

Pops of color? Heck yes!
If you want to stand out (and who doesn’t?), a bold color is your best friend.

Got a signature color? BRING IT.
I mean it—show me your power color, and we’ll make sure it translates beautifully on camera.

Now, here’s the tea: Flat, clingy fabrics? HARD PASS.
They won’t do you any favors. And listen, if you’re like me and live in black 24/7 (guilty 🙋‍♀️), this is your chance to step out of the box! A little pop of color can take your headshots from ‘meh’ to WOW.

Your wardrobe is your personality’s hype team, and I’m here to make sure it SHINES. Bring options, and together we’ll create something FABULOUS.

Let’s do this!!!
