A Creative Brand Session is Perfect For You If… 

Reason No.1

You’re revamping or creating a new website and you want quality, consistent imagery to populate your new site and your social accounts. It matters to you that you have a cache of imagery that reflects your brand’s values and aesthetics and helps advance you toward your goals.

Reason No.2

Your current website has a mix of stock images and a couple photos taken of you in 2015. Or worse, your website has zero images of you! It’s well-known that people buy products or services from other people and your face needs to be on your website, regardless of what you offer.

Reason No.3

You’ve put off having photos made because you hate being in front of the camera. The good news is I consider half my job is making you feel comfortable and relaxed. 90% of my brand clients have felt the same way you do and they all report the their session experience felt easy and even fun. 😉
