Just accidentally found out I was nominated for the “Best Local Photographer” in “The Best” list of 2026!

Go to the first link in my bio, and let’s see how far we can get this thing! It’s under the Services section.

Thank you so much to whoever nominated me, I was just going in to vote for someone else and saw my name on there. It’s funny how they don’t even let you know. 🤣

Probably should’ve used one of my old antique cameras… they do look so much cooler, but nothing beats this technology! 🤩📷

Plus, this is the one I use to make sure you look perfect and beautiful and on brand! 😍

Meet Misha!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Home with Misha” is a Richmond-based real estate business focused on helping clients buy smart, sell strong, and feel right at home.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“The Baking Agent” is a home-based baking brand blending small-batch sweets with big life moments.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Misha wanted to get branding photos both for her real estate business and her baked good, so we decided using her actual home would be our best option.

It worked out super well, because she was able to use all of her real cooking gear, had goodies ready to go, and some homes were for sale in her neighborhood, so with a quick walk down the street we were able to stage that as well! And of course that’s where the puppies live, which we had to include in a few of her lifestyle shots!

Does your business really need Professional Branding Photography?

The short answer in an absolute "YES", but I helped break down what to consider if you are a business who does any marketing online, or in print, that you want to get in front of a potential audience.

Polished, on-brand, up to date content matters more than you may think, especially when people are shopping services online.

Some days I’m killing it at business… Some days I can’t even open my laptop 😂🥴

It’s fine, everything is content, right? Right.

If you need branding photography, I promise I’ll do much better at that than this ;)

I'm way better at setting blog post drafts than posting them - today I posted for the first time in a while! And I'm excited to share this lovely client with you all :)
