Elevated, strategic imagery for founders who understand that how you show up visually shapes how your brand is perceived.

Lifestyle‑driven personal brand photography designed to support founders and thought leaders with a clear point of view.
This work blends editorial portraiture with context‑rich lifestyle imagery to create a cohesive visual language—one that reflects not just who you are, but how you work, what you stand for, and the caliber of clients and opportunities you want to attract.

WHY BRANDS CHOOSE ME
Photographer, creative director, product stylist
and analytics to produce imagery that resonates and converts. My roots run deep in photography, too—my mom is an award-winning family photographer, and I got my start assisting her. After studying art history and fashion, I moved to Paris, where I worked as a travel journalist (while chasing the perfect croissant). All of that influences how I see the world—and how I help brands tell their stories with style, strategy, and heart. I now live in San Diego with my husband, pup, and our twin babies.
Before launching my business, I worked behind the scenes at a leading wedding editorial brand, ran the photo and social department for an e-commerce boutique, and directed content for a Forbes-listed travel and family influencer. That experience gave me a unique perspective: I didn’t just create content—I got to see how it performed across platforms. It taught me how to blend art
THE BACKSTORY
INQUIRE HERE
Personal brand photography is a strategic photo shoot designed to visually communicate who you are, what you do, and how you want to be perceived. Unlike traditional headshots, personal brand photography focuses on storytelling — creating a cohesive library of editorial-style images that support your website, social media, press features, speaking engagements, and launches.
This is ideal for founders, entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals building visibility and authority through their personal brand.
What is personal brand photography?
Before your shoot, we collaborate on:
- Visual direction and brand tone
- Wardrobe and styling guidance
- Location selection
- Shot list planning aligned with your goals
You don’t need to show up knowing how to pose or what to do. My role is to guide the process so the imagery feels natural, confident, and aligned with your brand.
Do you help with creative direction and styling?
- Number of looks
- Locations
- Whether lifestyle, environmental, or detail shots are included
This allows us to create a robust content library rather than a handful of images.
How long does a personal brand photography shoot take?
- Founders and entrepreneurs
- Coaches, consultants, and creatives
- Authors, speakers, and thought leaders
- Professionals in a growth or repositioning phase of their business
Who is personal brand photography for?
- Website and sales pages
- Press features and media kits
- Speaking engagements and book launches
- Social media and content marketing
- Email newsletters and digital products
We plan your shoot around how and where the images will actually live, not just how they look.
