More Than a Headshot
Here's the thing about headshots: you get one photo, maybe two, and then what? You put it on your website and your LinkedIn and you're done. That's not branding — that's a profile picture. Your business deserves more than that.
That's why I only offer branding collections. When we work together, I'm not just showing up to snap a few portraits. We start with a planning session where I get to know your business, your audience, and the content you actually need. I'll build a custom shot list, help you plan wardrobe and locations, and handle every creative detail so that session day feels effortless. Hair and makeup is always included.
I bring a fashion-editorial eye to personal branding — so whether you're a photographer, a realtor, a makeup artist, or a boutique fitness studio owner, you'll walk away with images that feel polished, intentional, and unmistakably you.
How It Works
The Branding Experience
Brand Deep-Dive
We start with a planning call where I learn everything about your business — your audience, your goals, and how you actually use images. I build a custom shot list and style guide from there.
Session Day
Professional hair and makeup, 2-3 outfit changes, and 1-3 hours of shooting across curated locations. I direct every pose and setup so you can just be present.
Your Visual Library
Within 3-4 weeks, you'll receive 30-60 fully edited images — lifestyle portraits, working shots, detail shots, and flat lays designed to fuel your website, social, and marketing for months.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in a branding collection?
Every collection includes a planning call where we map out your brand goals, target audience, and content needs. From there, I build a custom shot list and style guide. On session day, professional hair and makeup is included. You'll receive a full library of edited images — working shots, lifestyle portraits, detail shots, flat lays, and environmental images — designed to fuel your website, social media, and marketing for months. Collections start at $1,500, and most clients invest between $2,500 and $3,500.
How should I prepare for my branding session?
I handle most of the prep for you. After you book, I'll send a planning questionnaire about your brand, audience, and goals. We'll schedule a call to collaborate on locations, wardrobe, and a shot list tailored to how you actually use images in your business. I recommend bringing 2-3 outfit changes and any products, tools, or props that tell your story. By session day, you'll know exactly what to expect and can focus on showing up and being yourself.
How long is a branding session and how many photos do I get?
Most branding sessions run between one and three hours, depending on your collection. You'll receive a minimum of 30 fully edited images, and most clients walk away with 40 to 60 — enough to refresh your website, fill weeks of social content, and update your marketing materials. Add-ons like additional outfit changes and secondary locations are available if you want to expand your library.
What Clients Are Saying
“I've never loved photos of myself, so I was dreading this. But Emily made it easy. The planning process alone was worth it — she helped me think through outfits and locations I wouldn't have considered on my own. My Instagram finally matches the quality of my work, and I've had three new clients tell me they found me because of my photos.”
“I knew I needed to update my branding, but I dreaded the idea of stiff corporate headshots. Emily's approach was different. She planned every detail, styled the whole session, and the images feel polished but still like me. I use them everywhere — my website, listing materials, social media — and I still get compliments six months later.”
