PERSONAL BRAND PHOTOGRAPHY
Helping small businesses + personal brands
stand out + look good.
In our visually driven world, photos are often the first impression potential clients and customers have with your brand. Which is why a personalized and compelling visual identity is key to standing out from the crowd.
I offer lifestyle headshots and personal brand photography in Des Moines for small businesses, creatives and entrepreneurs, resulting in a library of custom images for your website, social media and marketing needs.
I also have a background in digital marketing and I'm a small business owner myself, so I know what questions to ask to figure out exactly what images you need for your business or brand.

photography experience:
1 - Connect
Whether you’re just curious or ready to book, the most efficient way to get all of your questions answered, and to figure out which photography package best suits your needs, is to hop on a quick discovery call.
2 - Plan
Once you book, I will help you identify everything you need from outfits, accessories and props, to a shot list, timeline and locations. Then I’ll create a handy checklist for you so you are fully prepared for your session.
3 - Create
During your photo shoot, I will help you relax in front of my camera, showing you exactly what to do. I will capture your best angles and most desired shots, as well as the unplanned moments that naturally and beautifully occur.
4 - Enjoy
Three weeks after your session, you will receive an online gallery displaying a variety of fully edited images to choose from. You will be able to download your favorite images for immediate use.

FAQ
What do I wear?
I'll help you with this during the planning session so you are fully prepared head to toe!
What does the "plus sign" mean in your pricing?
The "plus sign" indicates that the prices listed are base prices only. Tax will be added to all sessions, plus any additional fees such as studio or location rentals, furniture rentals, custom set design, additional people, extra session time, models, stylists and/or travel fees outside of Des Moines. Any and all additional fees will be clearly communicated and discussed prior to booking.
How do I pose? I get nervous in front of the camera...
It's completely normal to feel nervous in front of the camera. And I don't expect you to know what to do. That's why I'll put on some music (if we're in a studio) and give you clear direction on what to do, balanced with giving you vague direction and watching what you do naturally. I like to capture a mix of intentional photos mixed with moments that organically unfold as we work together. We'll chat, we'll laugh, we'll keep it fun - I promise!
Do you have a photo studio?
I don't have my own personal studio. Instead, I shoot at multiple studios around Des Moines, each of which offer something different - from colors to seating to props. This way I'm able to help my client's find what's best for their brand.
We're also not limited to shooting only in studios. We will discuss all options during the planning phase or on a discovery call.
Do you offer a discount for recurring sessions?
Yes! Return clients receive a discount for sessions occuring within 6 months. Or tell me what you need and the frequency and I can create a series package for you.
Do you travel outside of Des Moines?
Yes! Travel fees may apply 60+ miles from Des Moines, Iowa.
Additionally, I make an annual trip to Los Angeles which does not require a travel fee if you book during a time I am already planning to be there.
