Built for Growing Teams
Businesses evolve, and your team portraits should evolve with them.
Using advanced compositing techniques, individual team members can be photographed separately and seamlessly added to or removed from your group image as your company grows. That means you won't need to coordinate an entirely new team photo every time someone joins, leaves, or changes roles.
The result is a polished, cohesive team portrait that can be updated over time, saving you both time and the cost of a full reshoot.
The Gleam Co. is our dedicated pageant headshot specialty.
If you’ve ever been told “this is just how it’s done” or rushed through poses without being asked what actually feels like you, you’re not alone. And honestly, that’s exactly why this exists.
They feel like you, on purpose. Strong, aligned, and impossible to overlook.
While you’ll experience the same fully guided process we’re known for, this offering is built for contestants who want more than a rushed, one-size-fits-all approach. Every session begins with a brand strategy consultation, giving you a voice in how you’re seen before you ever step in front of the camera.
From there, we create high-level pageant headshots with intention behind every detail. The result is a set of headshots that don’t feel generic or interchangeable.
Lifestyle branding sessions
A cinematic branding session inside the workshop of a skilled carpenter, captured in the middle of real work. Set against a dark, moody atmosphere, this session focuses on texture, craftsmanship, and the quiet intensity of creating by hand. Sawdust in the air, tools in motion, and intentional light shaping every detail. This is branding photography that feels honest, grounded, and deeply connected to the maker behind the work.
We capture you in action to showcase what it looks like working with you, either in your space or our studio.
More Than a Headshot
A great branding portrait doesn't just show what you look like. It shapes the way people perceive your business before you've ever had a conversation.
For more than 16 years, I've helped entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals create imagery that builds trust, attracts the right clients, and reflects the value of what they offer. Every branding session begins with strategy. Together, we'll identify your ideal client, define the message you want your brand to communicate, and create a library of modern, intentional imagery designed to work across your website, social media, publications, and marketing.
With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from SCAD and concentrations in Fashion Photography and Advertising Photography, my background extends far beyond creating beautiful portraits. I understand how visual storytelling influences consumer perception and purchasing decisions, allowing us to create images that do more than look professional. They position you as the authority your audience is already searching for.
Whether you're refreshing your online presence, launching a new business, or stepping into the next chapter of your career, your branding portraits should become one of your hardest-working marketing assets. When your visuals immediately communicate confidence, credibility, and authenticity, the right clients begin to trust you before they ever reach out.
Because in today's world, your first impression rarely happens in person. It happens online.

Frequently asked questions
Most photographers rely on repeatable setups, familiar poses, and a streamlined approach that looks consistent from client to client.
My work is built differently.
Every session begins with an in-depth consultation where we design your shoot around you. Your features, your personality, your story, and how you want to be seen all shape the final result. From there, I customize every detail. Lighting is built intentionally for your face and body, posing is directed with precision, and each set or environment is chosen to support the vision we’ve created together.
This level of customization is rare.
With a background in fine art and years of technical experience, I specialize in advanced lighting and highly tailored posing for all body types and comfort levels. You’re never left guessing what to do or how to show up. I guide you the entire way so you feel confident, natural, and fully taken care of.
The goal is always the same. To create images that feel like you on your best day, not like a template.
This isn’t about fitting you into a style.
It’s about building something around you that can’t be replicated.
A regular headshot captures what you look like.
A branding session captures how you show up.
We design each session around how you want to be perceived, by whom, and where your images will live. That means intention behind wardrobe, expression, posture, and pacing. You’re not just getting photos, you’re building visual credibility.
We create headshots for professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, creatives, and teams. Whether you need a classic, polished look or something more modern and expressive, the session is tailored to match your industry and goals.
Yes. Most clients feel this way when they arrive. You’ll be guided through posing, expression, and subtle adjustments so you never feel awkward or unsure. The experience is designed to help you relax and look like the best version of yourself, not someone else.
That’s the difference between a competent headshot and a strategic one.
We don’t copy and paste shoots. Every session is designed around who you want to attract, what you want to communicate, and how you want to be perceived before you ever say a word. We design your session with your audience in mind, not just your appearance. The goal isn’t a “good” photo, it’s an image that does some of the work for you.
When your ideal client sees it, they feel clarity, confidence, and trust. That’s what converts.
Professional hair and makeup is not required for every person in your session. That said, if members of your group regularly wear makeup or style their hair, we strongly recommend adding their services with our artists.
One of the reasons clients consistently love how they look in our work is because our hair and makeup artists are among the best in the industry. Their work is a key part of the overall look and ensures consistency across the final images. Without it, the results can feel visually uneven.
Hair and makeup for one person is included in your booking fee. Additional services can be added per person, per service, so you can customize the experience in a way that feels right for your group while maintaining the integrity of the final images.
