While scrambling to get ready for a portrait session this morning, I couldn't resist snapping a quick cell photo of my pile of equipment. It told such a simple, yet true story.

Thrown somewhat haphazardly next to the "Blessed" sign in the kitchen window, it reminded me to take a moment and be thankful.

Every photo session. Every client. Every smile shared. I'm blessed and thankful to do what I do.

Looking forward to being one of the speakers at tomorrow's National Association of Career Women - Port Huron meeting! I appreciate the opportunity to step from behind the camera and share a bit about my journey.

We are STOKED to have our very own Chamira of Chamira Studios come from behind the camera and share her story on Wednesday!🥳

Enjoy this sneak peak of her speech: "I'll readily admit it: I'm an art nerd and photographer with an obsession for creativity and productivity. My passions include professional photography, art, and podcasting. I am constantly inspired by God’s creation all around me in nature and am constantly learning and growing on my creative journey. From an early age, I knew that creativity would play a large role in my life. From studying at the University of Michigan School of Art & Design to getting thrown into the book publishing industry, to stumbling into the motorcycle magazine industry, to finally venturing out on my own, my creative journey has been nothing short of thrilling. And I'm still learning!"🎨

Great times at the 88th Annual Blue Water Chamber Golf Classic! I had a blast covering this fantastic event, put on by the Blue Water Area Chamber of Commerce at Marysville Golf Course on June 22nd. Presenting a handful of my fav photos from the day.

Shout out to the amazing Michelle Kinna for offering to snap a quick photo of me on the job at the 88th Annual Blue Water Chamber Classic this past Monday. I was SO grateful for her help during this fantastic event. Not only did she help me stay organized in getting photos of all of the scattered golf teams, but she also did an amazing job driving us around the course. Fun times on the golf cart! Finished photos from the event coming soon.

I do have a quick photo of her in action. In hindsight though, we totally should've gotten a photo together. 🥰

What a fantastic Applebees + IHOP Grand Opening this morning with the Blue Water Area Chamber of Commerce. There was even a check presentation with the Port Huron High School Track & Field. The community was definitely excited - What you can't see from my quick photos of the ribbon cutting ceremony is the long line wrapped around the building. The crowd was definitely pumped for the prize wheel, swag giveaway, face painter, dj and photo booth. It was a bit of spur of the moment decision to go, but I'm glad I did!

While my business started off focusing primarily on headshots for fellow professionals, I'm finding that often businesses need more than photos from the neck up.

Simply put, sometimes a simple headshot session is just not enough.

Businesses have various needs. Yes, headshots are a wonderful tool for increasing trust with your customers. They're useful assets to have for your business cards, website, and even billboards. However, there's so much more potential when it comes to using photo and video assets to show off your business's unique services and personality.

Enter full Branding Sessions.

A Branding Session lets all of your personality shine through. A single (or even series) of these sessions can be a powerful way to show your audience specifically WHAT your services and products are, as well as HOW you do it.

This was the case with Trista Stewart, owner of Mindful Intentions. After a successful headshot session together, she wanted more. How did it turn out? Read my case study about her Branding Photo Session here:
