What you offer is specific to you, and it is so good. By attentively focusing on your unique brand, we help tailor your photography session so that you can stand out in the scroll and be seen.
Our goal is to collaborate with you to elevate your brand and create profit-boosting photos. We will dive deep to determine visuals that drive you and brand forward.
Do you ever wish you had your own Mary Poppin's bag of digital images for your business? And then you could just reach in and pull out exactly what you need to say, and say it better than you could ever say it in your own words?
Remember, Mary had her bag, and song, unique for her and her business and audience.
You can have your own "bag," full of images unique to you and your business. (Songs are optional.)
You don't need Mary's bag.
Your branding photo session affords you a cohesive collection of photos customized for your brand, so you can stop your audience mid-scroll and drive profit.

A curated gallery of photos, dedicated to your business success, that are cohesive, and flexible for use.
curated & cohesive
One size does not fit all. Plus, you, your business, way to unique to treat it like stock images and presets are what you need. Like an expert tailor working on a couture piece for you, this is about designing something that highlights the best of you, that fits in a way you didn't even realize it could. This is about discovering what is working, and what is not working. Any holes in the seams? Let's stitch those up and take care of those too. Through discussion and in depth research and Krissy's exclusive Brand Development Process, we will collaborate to create profitable photos your business needs.
Showing up is always important, but we start that weeks before getting in front of the camera. The exclusive Brand Development Process Krissy will walk through with you includes conversations, questionnaires, and research. Before you're ever in front of the camera we will execute a strategic plan. The preparation means you'll be more relaxed and confident when me and my lens are in front of you. No need to do what works for somebody else's business, instead our collaborative preparation means this is crafted to be about you and good for your brand.

You've had your hair and makeup done, and you are showing up, big time. Your feeling all the good feels with your favorite playlist playing and Krissy giving you direction for relaxed posing-- because as it turns out, there are options besides your hand on your hip. Imagine a pace smooth like butter, all the while Krissy is continually creating, and what she is directing, well it feels like you just put your favorite hoody on. Unguarded laughter, genuine smiles. You're heard. You're seen. You know it isn't just the preparation that is paying off, it's all the work you've put into your business too.

I'm Krissy. I want to see you & your business thrive.
We aren't just going to have so much fun, which we will. But I'm also using 20+ years as a business owner, a degree in Rhetoric and Communication, a love for research and connecting the dots, and 15 years of photography experience, to create a visual representation of your brand through photographs. I want you to feel so good and confident in front of my camera. And I also want you to use these images to get in front of the audience that you envision...even if they aren't in their seats just yet.
Hey there!
so that what you do is translated through photographs that capture the attention of your audience. You need cohesive photographs that aren't the same as everybody else, and that showcase what you offer. With the expertise of a photographer, who is learning about you and your brand, tailoring your session to you, so that you succeed and stand out all the more. A brand photoshoot is a where you start or fill in the gaps you need, and love the results. Beyond social media, and your website, these can be used wherever you need them to be... Digitally in email campaigns, newsletters, and email signatures; and in traditional print from business cards and brochures to magazines and presentations.

brand Photos
To put it simply, you will be more successful with an authentic portrait that doesn't just represent you, but also is relatable to your potential client. These polished portraits will be handcrafted and finished with a Luxe edit, and still recognizably you. You'll be able to use this for both printing and screen usage.
Your first introduction should be a great one.
SWIPE: which do you need?
Headshots
You want to love your first "hello" to be so good, but you also are looking at your content and know it can be more. You are looking at your website and wanting your hard work to translate to your audience and ultimately increase your income. If photos are worth 1,000 words, then you need the ones that speak on-brand and effectively to your clientele. The good news is that you can work "both" headshots and branding content in with your photography session with Krissy.
You need both headshots and brand photos

You aren't needing all the things. You are needing your first impression to be one that makes people see you, want to meet you, and that looks great while still looking like the authentic you, all while showing you value your business. Tall order? Not really. You can choose an in studio headshot session here on John's Island or can have Krissy travel to your place of business in the Charleston, SC area or beyond. Also a favorite, on location-- because Charleston has incredible options. One more bonus, Krissy is using the same expertise as her 2022 Bronze Portrait Master Award to create and then edit your photo with her Luxe edit reserved for headshots and contemporary portraiture.
Maybe you're not needing a branding session. Maybe what you really need is to start with an authentic, fantastic, introduction-- AKA, headshots.

You aren't needy, you just are ready to get it all done. There are a few different ways to customize a branding and headshot session for you. During your complimentary consultation call, Krissy will let you know how.

also a favorite:
01. Let's Chat
It is important for you to connect with and feel comfortable with your photographer. First up, we chat on the phone and see if I'm a good fit for you and what you're wanting. (I hope I am!) We will also discuss which options best meet your needs and work within your budget, and talk scheduling.
02. Let’s Plan
After the initial consultation call, either on zoom or the phone, a digital contract is sent to you, and your initial payment is collected to secure your session date. Next up a questionnaire, and you're going to get style tips, plus relevant recommendations for your session. We will have another in depth planning Zoom call before your photography session.
03. Let’s Shoot
This is the most fun part. You're going to have the opportunity to not only see our collaboration come together, but you will be able to enjoy the not-painful photo session where you feel confident in front of the camera, and actually have a good time! After that, I cull your photographs so you get the best ones, edit them and put them in an online, downloadable gallery for you to use.
