Who are branding photoshoots for?

• Do you want a website that converts?
• Do you want your social media to create connections?
• Do you want your headshots to create trust?
• Do you want your team photos to show the community within your business?
• Do you want to convey safe client processes?
• Do you want to provide welcoming interior spaces?
• Do you want to have branded stock photos like no one else has?

Branding photoshoots are for the businesses that want to be seen as real, approachable, and deeply human. You’re more than a headshot, more than a logo, and more than your treatment list or beautifully designed space. In the health and wellness industry, people choose care based on connection, they want to know who they’ll be trusting with their body, their wellbeing, and their healing. These sessions are about bringing you and your team forward, showing the warmth, professionalism, and energy clients feel the moment they walk in. We put real faces and real stories at the heart of your business so your clients feel that connection before they ever step through the door.

Do you ONLY work with health and wellness businesses?

While I specialize in health and wellness businesses, I love working with any brand that values connection, intention, and thoughtful storytelling. My background as a former 13 year massage therapist give me a deep understanding of the wellness space and care driven businesses, but my approach to strategic brand photography translates beautifully across industries.

If you're a business owner who wants authentic, professional photos that reflect who you are and support growth, we'll likely be a great fit.

Are you light & airy or dark & moody?

No, my editing style isn't fully either of those. While I can edit lighter or a little darker my normal editing is trying to match true to life, but I can sway a little either way. I do use a consistent light on shoots and I can move it around to achieve different lighting looks. My portfolio is what I deliver to my clients (and I am constant updating my photo samples), if you don't see exactly what you're envisioning, then I might not be your photographer.

How much help do I get through the shoot?

I guide you through the whole process both before, during and after. You're never alone or doing it yourself. We will talk about it all, locations, props, outfits, having a client in your shoot and posing through the whole shoot. You'll also be sent a Shoot Prep Guide at the beginning of our planning.

Do you have a studio to shoot in?

No. I'm an on location photographer, meaning I come to your Washington state location to shoot. *See next question

How do I pick a location?

We’ll figure this out together and choose spaces that match the look, feel, and experience you want your clients to connect with.

For health and wellness businesses with their own office or clinic, your space is often the heart of your brand, from the rooms, the décor, the lobby, and the energy you’ve created all tell a story. If you have a brick and mortar location, we’ll use it as one of our key locations so clients can visually step into your world before they even arrive.

For solo & service based business owners or those without a photographable office, we have plenty of options. We can rent a studio or home setting that fits your aesthetic, use a beautifully decorated space, or choose a location that feels aligned with the message you want to share.

Other location possibilities include styled homes (rented, yours, or a family member’s), cozy cafés, walking through town, parks, or nature. It really depends on what parts of your story you want to express.

Part of this comes down to your personal branding.

If being outdoors, surrounded by trees and fresh air, is part of who you are and the wellness you model… then we’ll choose a natural setting. If that doesn’t fit your brand at all, then wandering through the woods wouldn’t make sense. Together, we’ll make sure every location supports your story, your energy, and the clients you want to attract.

Do you travel?

I will travel to any city within Washington State. I'm in the Kent, WA area and I typically have shoots on the west side of the mountains. I have gone over to Walla Walla for a multiple day photoshoot and up to Bellingham for a day photoshoot. Traveling all over Washington is completely possible, some travel fees may apply depending on where in Washington.

What should I wear?

Wear the clothing that you normally wear, if you're not a dress person don't wear a dress. Each outfit is going to be specific to what you want to communicate in that set. From the boss outfits, to the business casual to cozy outfits, each outfit is going to be part of the storytelling within the scene. I have a few recommendations I give like wearing your branding colors or neutral colors that flow with your brand.

We will talk about your outfits on our video shoot call and you can show them to me. If you find you want more help then I can refer you do a stylist.

How can I use my images?

After the delivery of your photos I send a little guide with 11 ideas to use your new personal branding photos. Here are some ideas on where everyone tends to use their new photos.

• On your website
• On your social media outlets: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, reel covers... We are always needing updates, more and refreshed content and images to support what we are sharing about.
• Newsletters: make those newsletters personable with the images from your branding photoshoot. Add a photo in the header or the signature of your newsletter.
• Blog posts: add banner images or images that support the content of your blog post.
• Create a media kit: do you present and need to share a "good" headshot of yourself for them to advertise.

I've created a whole blog post that talks about about this. READ MORE

Will my photos be perfect?

The honest truth is I'm not a perfectionist, however I always try my best to see the hair flyaways, clothing doing odd things, random things in the background and so forth. Will photos be perfect? I can't guarantee they will be perfect, but I'll do the best to my ability to make them as great as they can be. I'm all about imperfect action and if you're here I hope you are too!

Do I need to loose weight before my photoshoot?

No! You are amazing just as you are today! Wearing the right fit of clothing (not loose and drapey clothing) and posing on photoshoot day will all help take away weight. I also want to remind you that we are our harshest critique and everyone who is viewing your images and seeing your smile isn't going to be seeing what you don't like about yourself. Be gentle and kind to yourself.

Do you do trades?

No, I don't offer trades for my photoshoots.

What does a branding photoshoot cost?

Branding photography is a custom experience and pricing reflects the scope and needs of your business. Every shoot is intentionally tailored, which is why investment can vary. During our discovery call, I gather details about your goals, space, team size and how the photos will be used so I can create a thoughtful and aligned proposal.

Elements like location rentals, hair and makeup, models, stylists or behind the scenes video may be included depending on your vision. Whether your shoot is simple or more expansive, my role is to guide you through the options and build an experience that supports your business and feels right for you.
