YOUR CUSTOM PHOTOGRAPHIC EXPERIENCE

branding portraiture

​

 my approach

I'm an energetic and fun-loving photographer who loves to tell the story of  our lives through my relaxed and meaningful approach

to photography.  It is my goal to capture who you are and what you want to convey to the world in your portrait session in an artistic manner through a lifestyle photography approach.  Be prepared to be taken off the beaten path for a one-of-kind adventure during our sessions - I will provide gentle guidance and truly direct our time together to bring out  your genuine  personality and tailor it to meet your branding and business needs. Take a look at my portrait collection here to get an idea of what the end result would look like.

 

Whether I'm capturing the authentic you or creating art from all the beautiful things that life has to offer, I shoot not just what I see but what I 'feel' - the heart behind life's beauty. In your  branding portrait session, we will work together to tell the story of your brand and you. I hope that together we will get to create a personalized photographic experience that meets your business needs.

​

 your experience 

I believe that choosing a photographer is a highly subjective and personal experience that when done right can capture the heart of your story as it unfold without effort in front of my camera. Get to know me a little better here and view my portrait work here. If you feel that we are a good fit, be sure to get in touch! Your photo session experience will be relaxed, fun and meaningful. Our goal is to capture the essence of you and your brand during the branding portrait session and I will provide the guidance needed to do just this during our time together. I provide stylistic guidance for your photo shoot and offer location suggestions to capture beautiful photographs that showcases your unique story. Sometimes this could just be your place of business- we will chat before our session to determine the ideal setting for your portrait needs.  Don't hesitate to get in touch with further questions! 

​

frequently asked questions

​

What is lifestyle photography?

This is a question that I get asked a lot by friends, family and clients. Lifestyle photography refers a spectrum of styles that focus on capturing connections over traditionally posed photographs.  While there is no one way to achieve the end result, my approach is as outlined above. I do provide some guidance to get the best results but the general feel of the session will be relaxed and I will provide gentle direction to capture the true essence of who you are. Business branding sessions also include formal headshots for business needs.  My goal in the sessions is not just capturing how you look but who you are and your unique story.

​

Do you provide guidance on location and clothing?

Yes, absolutely! Once we speak and determine what would best reflect your portrait and business needs, we will work on styling and

I will provide suggestions on locations - sometimes, this could just be at your place of business to convey the story of your venture.

​

How long does it take to get the images from our sessions?

Typically, three to four weeks to allow adequate time for post-processing and to ensure only the best quality of work is delivered to you. However, most of the time, images are ready earlier for you!

​

How early should we book and can we reschedule? 

Limited sessions are scheduled throughout the year by request. I recommend reaching out if you are interested in booking a session with me at your earliest convenience. This will allow us to find a mutually convenient date for your branding portrait session. You can reschedule once at no cost to you to a mutually agreed upon date depending on availability.

​

What is a branding portrait session and who are the ideal clients that would benefit? 

Branding portrait sessions are not business branding sessions - these are portrait sessions that capture your brand via imagery once you have an brand design in mind. Therefore, business owners and professionals who have designed their brand and are looking to bring an element of connection with visual representation of that brand are ideally suited for scheduling these sessions with me. Professionals, small business owners, social media influencers, bloggers, media professionals can all take advantage of these sessions to put their best foot forward to give them a competitive advantage in their industry.
