Feel empowered in your brand with content that represents you!


Personal branding images are how you will portray yourself, your brand and it's values to your target audience. These will show your audience, why they should choose to book with you over others. They make you more personable, and enable your audience to get to know you more and determine whether they align with you.


I capture the essence of your brand with empowering, fun, and authentic images. Whether you're a bold entrepreneur, a creative spirit, or a small business owner, my personal branding photography packages are crafted to highlight your true self and help you connect with your dream clients.

How I'm different


My approach goes beyond the standard business headshots— I'm here to show the walking, talking, living woman behind the business. In this day and age, people want to feel connected to humans behind a business, personal branding photography can be the way that you tell your story— without having to say anything!

FAQ

How do I secure my shoot?

A deposit of $300 is required to secure your spot and the remainder is due 2 weeks before the shoot.

What do you mean by "all the best photos"?

In my experience, I've found it REALLY hard to choose a limited number of images to send to a client. I can tell you now I have always sent more images than promised to every client, so I thought, let's stop kidding myself, and just edit and send what I love. All of the best photos are the images that I think you'll love, removing any of the below-average shots or double-ups. As a guideline, you can expect to receive around 40 edits per hour of shooting, but this will vary between clients and sessions.

Where are you based and do you travel?

I'm based in Hamilton, New Zealand. I'm more than happy to travel anywhere within New Zealand, but there will be a travel fee charged at 80 cents for distances 25km outside of Hamilton.

When will I receive my images?

Delivered via an online gallery, you will receive some sneak peeks within 2-3 business days and the remainder of your images in 6 weeks following your session.

How do we book?

The best way to kick start your journey is to either book in for your free discovery call, or complete the enquiry form on my Contact page.

Client Love

Literally couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my first personal branding shoot. I felt so comfortable and confident in the studio with Shan and I felt like she just got it, you could say she understood the assignment. I would absolutely work with Shan again and I hope I don’t have to wait too long to do so because I had such a great time and am obsessed with my photos so far!
