Brand photography for business owners who want more than a photoshoot. Strategy. Styling. Direction. All year long... Brand Builder Membership now open!

That photo on your website? It’s been there since before half your current clients found you.

If it’s been over a year since you updated your business photos, we need to talk.

Because right now that same photo is doing double duty on your website, your LinkedIn, and your email signature... and it’s been there so long nobody even notices it anymore. That’s not brand consistency. That’s just background noise.

This is exactly where I come in. I build your content plan before I ever pick up my camera, so your entire shoot is on purpose. You walk away knowing exactly how to use your new photos, keeping your content fresh AND noticeable, not just pretty and forgotten.

You’ve got options here. One-off sessions if you need a quick reset. Or my most popular option, the Brand Builder Membership: a full year of content, wardrobe styling, **hair and makeup included!!**, and individualized support the whole way through.

As a St. Louis brand photographer, I built this because cool girls invest in their business. They don’t wait around hoping their 2022 headshot magically starts working harder.

Fall spots are filling quickly. Link in bio to learn more about Brand Builder.

I love seeing my branding photos on my client’s websites. It’s the culmination of a thorough planning meeting, multiple phone calls (and sometimes even late-night texts!) to get all the details just right. It’s not only magical to see my visions come to life, but to also watch my clients step into their confidence and power as a business owner because they are finally proud of their website. Knowing your brand and having a photographer that learns all about it before we even shoot is a game changer.

If you know it’s time for a refresh, I’m here. I’m so glad Aby Reitzel who owns Wildflower Counseling & Coaching chose me to elevate her online presence.

And if you know it’s time for a total redo of your entire site… call Mandy Alt | Marketing Consultant like Aby did. So many of my clients work with them. You won’t be disappointed!!! Make sure you tell them I sent you. 🪩👩‍💻

Would you let a stranger go through your closet? Lisa Jean’s clients do, and here’s why.

This is Lisa Jean with Lisa Jean✨Home Therapist , and she organizes homes for a living, which means her brand photos couldn’t just be pretty. They had to prove she’s good at her job.

So instead of staged “after” shots of an empty closet, we shot her in a real client’s closet, working side by side with them. You can actually see her process. You can see her working with someone, not just for them.

That’s the difference between a photo that looks nice and a photo that does its job. Anyone can show you a pretty closet. Not everyone can show you the person who made it happen, working elbow to elbow with a real client, and make you trust her enough to let her into your house.

As a St. Louis brand photographer, this is exactly the kind of shoot I love, because it’s not about pretty pictures. It’s about proof.

If you’re a St. Louis business owner whose work is genuinely good but your photos don’t prove it yet, this is your sign.

DM me. We’ll get a coffee date on the books (coffee on me!) and chat… zero pressure. 📷💗

My heart is broken… but this helps. 🥹 This is just a smidge of the messages I’ve gotten today. Thank you to everyone who has reached out or even thought of me today because of the magical Saint Dolly. To know that people think of me when they think of Dolly is the biggest compliment ever… and a small testament to how much I adore her. She will always be my hero. My inspiration. My fairy godmother.

More thoughts later… I’m off to light a candle for our girl and watch Steel Magnolias so Sally Field and I can cry it out together at the end. 💗

You have a folder with 200 photos in it, and you use maybe four of them. Let’s talk about why.

It’s not because you’re not photogenic. That’s not a real thing, and I need you to stop saying it about yourself.

It’s because somebody handed you a camera and said “just be natural,” which is the most useless direction a human being has ever received. Nobody’s natural on command. You froze. You didn’t know what to do with your hands. The photos came out stiff, and now they’re sitting in a folder doing nothing.

It’s also because nobody planned what those photos were actually for before you showed up. Pretty pictures with no strategy behind them are just... pretty pictures. They don’t sell anything. They don’t build trust. They just exist.

As a St. Louis brand photographer, this is the entire gap I built my business to close. I don’t just show up and shoot. I plan the posing, I plan the content, and I plan where every single image needs to live before we ever pick up a camera.

That’s the difference between a folder full of photos and a library that actually works for you.

DM me. Let’s grab coffee, my treat, and talk about whether I can help. Remember, cool girls invest in their business. 💗

We’ve all done it… you showed up to the networking event. You had the good conversation. You handed over the business card or followed each other on Instagram. Then three weeks later someone asks “does anyone know a good **your industry**”, and your name doesn’t come up.

That’s not a networking problem. That’s a visibility and branding problem.

People refer faces (and feelings) they remember, not names they vaguely recall meeting once at a coffee shop. If the only photo of you online is blurry, five years old, or doesn’t exist at all, you’re asking people to vouch for someone they can barely picture.

This is exactly why I tell every St. Louis business owner I work with: your brand photos aren’t decoration. They’re what makes you memorable enough to actually get referred.

Styling, planning, posing, delivering… all handled. Your only job is to be you. Let’s fix that visibility problem together. I’m here and ready when you are.

Seriously? Is this real life?

But seriously… is it??? I can’t lie… the last few years have been ROUGH. Like… omg amigonnahavetogetacorporatejob rough. 😳 (Don’t worry. Things are looking up… keep sending referrals… kidding, not kidding. 😘)…

But anyway, I digress. Here I am, sitting in my car, feeling happier then I’ve felt in a long time… and feeling so much gratitude for my life today. And then I get a text that just makes me well up. How is this real life??

Ya’ll know I say this a lot… but I am one lucky girl. 💗 St. Louis Branding Photographer
