Brittney drove all the way from Michigan for her headshot session with me today! I asked her why she don’t book with a photographer in Michigan and she said, “I reached out to a lot, but what really stood out the most to me about you was the way you presented yourself and your team. Your photographs looked the way I wanted mine to look!”

I’m so thankful for the opportunity to partner with .fw to be able to provide my clients exceptional makeup services for their headshot and branding photoshoots.

If you’re ready to level up in 2026, send me a message.

I have so many amazing images I’m working through that I was able to take at the creative lighting workshop a few weeks ago in Chicago with a variety of beautiful and talented dancers! I love studying light and learning how to use it in a variety of ways to create creative portraits. If you’re a dancer or studio owner interested in working together for creative dance portraits, I’d love to chat with you! Please email me at [email protected]

Are you a small business owner or entrepreneur who is just done trying to DIY your branding photos?

Always digging through your camera roll, cropping screenshots, or reusing the same three headshots from 2021? 😅

This reel is a little behind-the-scenes from a branding shoot I did for Fort Wayne interior designer

Before we ever started shooting, we talked through:
    •    What she needed for her website
    •    The kind of posts she likes to share on social
    •    The parts of her process her clients never see but need to understand

So when she walks away, she isn’t just getting “pretty pictures.” She’s getting a whole library of photos and video clips she can use for:
    •    Social media
    •    Her website
    •    Email marketing
    •    Future launches and offers

That’s why hiring a professional team is worth it. You get intentional content that looks like you, speaks to your people, and saves you so much time and mental energy. You’re not reinventing the wheel every time you need a post or a graphic.

If you’re tired of doing this all on your own and want a library of content you actually feel excited to use, comment the word BRAND and I’ll share what a branding session could look like for you. 💛

When you invest time, energy, and budget into a corporate or fundraising event, you deserve more than a few iPhone snaps that get buried in a group text. Strategic photo + video turns one night into months of marketing: social media posts, website updates, sponsor thank-yous, recruitment content, and a highlight reel you can share again and again.

My team and I handle the coverage so you can be fully present with your guests, donors, and clients – and walk away with polished assets that actually work for your brand long after the last guest leaves.

“Here are 3 headshot posing cues I use at every shoot to help you look polished and natural on camera:

1. Soften your expression, breathe and drop the shoulders to elongate your neck.
2. Chin out, slightly down to define the jawline.
3. Turn 45°, shift weight to your back foot and slightly hinge forward at your waist. The furthest thing away from the camera looks the smallest.
