NOthing changes if you don't change
It had been well over a year that I had taken professional photos and was seeking an update for social media and my website. What I was most impressed with is Katie's communication and initial planning session where we spent an hour dreaming and brainstorming of ideas for photos. She even took the time to line up a beautiful kitchen which was super important to me since I'm a registered dietitian and food is a huge part of my career and teaching clients.
I understand feeling frustrated because your brand feels mismatched, it lacks cohesion, and most importantly, doesn't tell a story. But I'm here to tell you right now, it doesn't have to stay that way! This dream of yours that you have spent countless hours investing in deserves to be showcased! It is my passion to do that through a series of photos that help tell the story of your brand and of YOU.
One day I realized that people don't simply book you for your product or service, but because of the face behind the brand
A collection of images for your brand that make your ideal client instantly want to be a part of whatever you are offering. Photos that showcase your greatest strengths, your story, a peak into the behind the scenes of your business, and the WHY behind why you started your business.
introducing...
You share your heart behind your business, your vision, and goals you have for branding session. I'll send you an in-depth questionnaire, and it'll help us get down to your greatest wants and needs for your brand, which will help us begin to strategize for your session. From there, we'll move onto the next step!
Every session is different, because no person is the same! Just like you feel amazing in a pair of jeans that feel like they were made for you, that is how your branding session should feel! That's why each session is tailored to your specific needs. Together we'll discuss goals and dreams for your brand, upcoming launches or celebrations, and content you feel you're lacking for your business. We'll talk through many layers of your business to ensure the content we'll be capturing is purposeful and practical for your brand's needs.
I will then create a mood board, and we will begin discussing location, outfit selections, and other details to make sure that your session goes smoothly!
You did it! The planning, the work, and now you get to SHARE fresh photographs for your brand to attract your ideal client! Who doesn't want that? After every branding session, I suggest popping a bottle of champagne, because you've just made one of the most important investments in your business and it deserves to be celebrated! Congratulations, YOU DID IT!
Your session will include whatever we decide your brand needs. Whether you need updated head shots, candids of you in your work environment, or an entire brand refresh, your session will be completely customized to your needs. If you're in need of photos for social media, your website, email ads, marketing materials, or upcoming launches, we will plan how to execute those and maximize your content for your various needs. You'll receive a collection of custom images to your brand that you will be able to use across whatever platforms you choose.

I can't recommend Katie enough and can't wait to book my next session with her!
I had the best experience working with Katie for my branding session...What I was most impressed with is Katie's communication and initial planning session where we spent an hour dreaming and brainstorming of ideas for photos. I know I have enough content to last me several months and I'm excited for how many clients I'll be able to reach and help through my efforts with social media marketing with these beautiful photos.

What others are saying
I'm not sure I can fit all of my raving reviews for Katie into just a few sentences but I'll certainly try! In short, Katie is PHENOMENAL!!
Katie recently photographed a branding session for my small business and she made me feel so comfortable. Katie is kind, friendly, professional, organized, and incredibly detail-oriented. The entire process of working with Katie was a fun and memorable experience. I don't typically love being in front of the camera, but Katie made me look and feel so confident.
Anna
She made me feel VERY comfortable and COMPLETELY prepared for our session.
I did a branding session with Katie and I cannot recommend her enough. We meet before the actual shoot to brainstorm ideas and for her to get to know me a little better. It made a HUGE difference and her turnaround time to get the photos back was super quick. She was very professional, polite, and personable and I cannot recommend her enough!

Let's face it, the world is better with small businesses. Part of being an entrepreneur is feeling like you're filling every role yourself, and holding all the glass balls can get a little overwhelming. Sometimes you just have to focus on your greatest strengths, then call in reinforcements to help with the other parts just as strong. It would be an honor to be the reinforcements your business needs. Together, we can create beautiful things. Let's do this!
You have accomplished so much by simply starting your business. imagine if you had a little help creating meaningful images, and all of a sudden, your brand was finally clear, consistent, and concise.
You're in the right place.
"think of all the possibilities
if you would just say yes"
I'm all in!
Sure, you could put off investing in branding portraits, and just keep doing what you're doing. But something tells me if you've made it this far, your brand is in need of a refresh, your clients need clarity on who you are, your story, and what sets you apart from your competition.
So really, what is holding you back?
"Following that one-liner highlight from your client's testimonial you are going to want to add the entire thing hear to really drive home how awesome people think your course or product is."

When I'm not helping other small businesses up their branding game, you can find me at brunch, taking long walks with my husband and pups, or trying a new bread recipe in the kitchen.
hey there!
