If you have a product-based business, you already know you need to have quality photos to stand out.

You also should have a photographer/videographer who:

- Can understand your vision and goals for the shoot

- Works with you in the planning process so everyone is on the same page

- You know you can overall trust to take care of your needs and provide you with quality images and videos that will make you stand out!

That's where I come in! Taking your product photos to the next level.

A 2024 recap of some of the industries I've photo and videographed this year and some of the places I've done shoots at this year!

This has been a great year and I'm thankful for all the clients, opportunities, personal and professional growth, and the people I've gotten to know this year. I could go on and on about everything I'm thankful for.

I can't wait for 2025!

A few photos from @healinghandsskintherapy session for @springfieldcitylifestyle magazine!

The main focus of the shoot was to get some headshots, a group photo, and some working shots 🤩

If you have a product-based business, having professional photos is a MUST.

I love creating fun and creative photos and videos for product-based brands to make them stand out!

Obsessed with this gallery 😍

Absolutely loved photographing Sarah!

@sarahnelsen is a clothing designer based in KC. She creates timeless, everyday luxury pieces.

We did her session in her studio and really focused on portraits of her, her working, and some detail/flatlay shots (AKA: custom stock photos)

Definitely check Sarah out!

Some photos from @sensiblywhimsical.alicia session!

Here is a little about Alicia:

"I’m a wife of 20 years, mom of 6 children, and double business owner. Let’s Grow Copy @letsgrowcopy (est. 2022) - I help with marketing, write blogs, sales pages, newsletters, ect… for women-owned businesses, and Alicia Kathleen Coaching @confidentwives (est. 2024) as a certified life coach for married women."

For Alicia's session, we focused on headshots/portraits, working shots, self-care shots, implementing books and other props that are relevant to her business.

She now has a beautiful and useful gallery of photos AND video clips to use for her website, social media pages, and marketing materials.

I've been wanting to do a shoot with a snake for YEARS and I finally got to!

I know photographers should have just one style of photography that they advertise, but I LOVE bright and colorful shoots, but I also LOVE dark, moody, and dramatic shoots 😍

Did you know I also photograph small teams?

Although my main focus is women in business, I also do shoots for teams. Do you have a team who needs their own headshots, working shots, and a few team photos? I can do that for you!

For @larochellehomedesign session, not only did we get some shots relating to her business, but Rochelle also wanted to get some portraits of herself. I absolutely love the photos we captured!

Rochelle is an interior designer. She not only offers interior design services, but also complete renovation/remodel services as well.

Absolutely loved getting to know her and being able to go to New York to photograph her session!

Tip #3 on how to look & feel your best on your photoshoot day:

Don't show up to your session with greasy hair! Even if you are modeling for someone else's photoshoot, don't come with greasy hair. It doesn't look good and doesn't photograph well.

Tip #2 on how to look and feel your best during your shoot:

Get enough sleep and don't overbook yourself the day before or the day of your shoot. You don't want to be totally burnt out and exhausted the day of your shoot.

You also want to leave some time for you to get your things ready the night before your shoot like sitting out your outfits and props and anything else you will be bringing to your shoot.

Over the next 3 days, i'm going to be sharing one tip per day on how to look and feel your best on your photoshoot day.

On the 3rd day, i'm going to be sharing a tip that is actually one of my pet peeves when clients don't do this, so stay tuned for that tip!

Tip #1: Wear clothes you feel confident and comfortable in - You’re not going to love your photos as much if you’re wearing something that you don't fully like how you look in it.

🤔 If you have done a photoshoot of any kind, did you make sure to wear clothes you felt confident and comfortable in or did you throw on something you liked and thought you should wear, but didn't really like how it looked on you and regretted it?
