Introducing our first Seattle business spotlight business owner Brenda of Now Less Is More - Essential Balance Skin Care.

Personally, I am so excited for my first ayurvedic facial and shirodhara treatment!

Q - Why did you need a new headshot?

I needed a professional headshot for my website, a selfie was not going to capture me well, I tried.
I hate having my picture taken, a natural smile is hard to find when having my picture taken.
So, I walked in and Rachel not only got me , she captured a great photo. Check her out!

Q - Why did you start your business?

I started my business in 2006 and I was 50 and wanted to work for myself, have some fun and do something that I could be of service to others. I had been in sales for years and wanted a CHANGE. It was my daughter that asked me "Would you ever think of doing skin care?"

Q - Who are your customers?

Ayurveda is different, and so are my customers. They are curious, unique individuals and like to experience new things. They too are looking for a change in something and like things to make sense, be challenged and don't give up easily. They for the most part are looking for something in skin care that is natural, organic but simple.

I really enjoy shooting headshots and executive portraits, and have always loved good classic black and white imagery. Completely inspired with my most recent work - fitness portraits and the play of lighting and contouring. I can't wait to shoot more! The whole creative process was great!

Hi Everyone,

I am a headshot, executive portraits, and personal branding photographer in lower Queen Anne. I shoot in studio or on location. I shoot tethered, which allows us to look at the images as I am shooting them and make adjustments until we have the perfect image.

The goal of a headshot is to capture you looking your best. With the abundant use of social media today, having a visually, engaging and impactful headshot or portrait is key for your personal and or business needs. Are you using a selfie when asked for a bio and photo or a professional photographer?

The photos show a before and two after. One without and two with professional makeup. It still looks natural but professional.

If you are going to invest in having a professional headshot or portrait, then consider hiring a professional hmua to ensure you do look your best! Professional makeup application will also minimize any retouching that needs to be done in post-production.

A professional hair and makeup artist will come to the studio to make sure your skin looks flawless, your eyes look radiant and your hair perfect.

Whether you are going with a clean look or a full coverage look, the makeup is applied specifically for the lighting we use. Please note that in order to achieve a naturally flawless look in your photos it may require more makeup than you might normally wear on a daily basis. The lighting will change how your makeup translates on camera.

Be assured that the end result is flawless natural looking makeup.


I shoot tethered to a computer so that you can see exactly what you look like on the monitor before your session even starts. This way we can make hmu adjustments until everything is absolutely perfect.

So if you know of anyone needing a professional headshot, executive portrait, business team headshots or a portrait, please send them my way!

Thank you.
