Happy Holidays ❤️
Excuse us while we spend the rest of this holiday season in our feels 🥹🥹🥹 Finished up our very last round of holiday minis as we bid our family photography services a final farewell (the @nspstudio and @emboldenyourbrand merge is finally complete 🥲). A bittersweet end to 2024, but we couldn’t have asked for a better turnout from some of our most loyal clients over the years - some that we’ve seen through engagements, weddings, newborns, businesses + all the little moments in between. It has been quite literally one of the biggest honor of our lives to capture your families over the past (almost) two decades. But of course, you haven’t totally gotten rid of us!! We’ll still be doing alllll the personal + professional branding *things* over at @emboldenyourbrand (including photos 📸), so make sure you’re keeping up with us over there!!We hope you have a very merry + bright holiday season, and a beautiful New Year ahead. ❤️ With love,Natalie + the team
No better feeling than getting that email that reads “your gallery is ready!!” 🙌 @100degreesconsulting team looking like a million bucks and ready to level up their digital presence with these new brand photos 💰👏 @stephanie.skry, founder of 100 Degrees Consulting, hosts a podcast (The Prosperous Nonprofit), speaks at events around the country, has been featured in various forms of press, has a beautiful website and social media presence - so up-to-date branding photos are a must! Even if you’re not doing any of the above, we always say - everyone has a personal brand. Whether you’re growing your side-hustle, going full time with your business, work in the influencing space, need a rebrand after 10 years.. whatever it may be - booking regular brand shoots (at least two per year, ideally once per quarter) is a great practice for your business. Let’s work together! Visit the link in our bio to learn more + book.
Self-obsession is what we aim for around here when it comes to our clients + how they view themselves. 🥰 It’s an honor to show you how your loved ones see you. We often hear “I’ve never looked like this in photos.” or “I’ve never LIKED a photo of myself.” Let us be the first to say - no hate towards selfies - but they’ll never be the same as a professional portrait from a photographer who knows their angles and how to bring out your most authentic self. THAT, my friends, is something to obsess over. Book your next session with us at the link in our bio! 📸
These women + the energy they brought to our studio are what it’s all about. ✨
We love working with YWCA of Rochester & Monroe County and doing whatever we can to aid them in their mission of eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all - it’s literally why NSP exists.
So much more to come on this amazing shoot // day with so many incredible women in our community!!

Thank you to @womenofthehall for having us back again this year, and happy Women’s History Month to all 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Stock photos, even if they match your brand aesthetic, are not going to close the sale for you. ❌ It’s no secret the photos you use across your website + social media platforms are key. But what’s actually going to hook your customers / clients are photos they IDENTIFY and CONNECT with. That means putting a face to your name, your staff members, the services you provide and *precisely* what it looks like to work with you. Can they see themselves sitting across the table from you collaborating together? Or on the other side of the cash register swiping their card?Your brand photos help create that experience BEFORE your audience ever even speaks with you! Let your photos do the talking.

You’ve just booked your photoshoot - YAY!!! And now you’re scrambling to find outfits, booking all your beauty appointments, wondering how you’ll come across in your photos… First, let us say - WE GOT YOU. You don’t need to overhaul your whole life before your photoshoot. But if you’re feeling a little stuck, here are some things to keep in mind:✨ Know that you deserve to exist in your own narrative. Whatever the purpose of the shoot is, taking up literal space and time is so so important - for you, your loved ones, your mission, your business.✨ Think of how you want to be perceived, then plan your outfits accordingly (whether it’s buttoned-up, casual / approachable or whatever fits well with your brand).✨ Bring clothing items that follow the shape of your body! The fit of your clothing is crucial - stay away from anything too flowy / baggy OR super tight / short.✨ This is not the time to try a new hairstyle. Set all your grooming appointments ahead of time and do what you usually do, just add a bit more polish if you want some extra ooomph!✨ Pick three adjectives for how you want to feel in your photos. Tell them to your photographer when you arrive for your shoot, and keep them in mind throughout your session. Save this post for inspo on your next photoshoot!! 💋

One of our favorite ways to take stock at the start of a new year is this: Think of your future self – one year from now – at the beginning of 2025. If you find yourself in the exact same place as you are now, how will that feel? If it’s good, then keep on keepin’ on, friend! If not, what changes can you start putting into place to position yourself for the best year yet? Best year in business, best memories with your family, best ways to honor yourself?
