Your dream clients are already looking for you

SACRAMENTO BRAND PHOTOGRAPHER FOR CREATIVE WOMEN

Let’s make it easy for them to say yes!

IT’S A YES FROM ME! →

You need Sacramento brand photos that bridge the trust gap between you and your clients

Luckily, I love to build trust

So tell me… how firm is your handshake? 

If your first impression doesn’t create confidence in your ideal client, they won’t stick around for a second one. 

As a former therapist, I know the importance of trust more than most. For years, it was my job to create lasting relationships with my clients. Now, it’s my job to help you create lasting relationships with yours.

I’d love to provide you with Sacramento brand photos that feel like a safe space — for you and your clients. 




Brand images are your first — and sometimes only — handshake with a potential client.

Design your dream session

01

We start with a discovery call to map out the ideal session for your brand personality, audience, and goals.

While our discussion is rooted in strategy, the vibes are less “business meeting” and more “coffeeshop chat.” (Oatmilk lattes welcome!)

Once your project is booked, we start solidifying the deets with a planning questionnaire, mood board, location scouting, and more. You even get a personalized prep guide answering all the FAQs you’re sure to ask.

Here’s how it works

YOUR SIGNATURE BRAND SESSION

Share your brand story

03

Within two weeks of your session – yes, I’m speedy! — you’ll receive a proofing gallery full of your gorgeous brand images.

Select the ones you want (or upgrade to the full gallery), and I make final edits. Your final gallery is delivered one week later. Go ahead and start sharing — the world can’t wait to see these images!

Want extra support? Opt for a personalized content guide to get specific tips on how to use your photos for the fastest, best results.


Show up and show off

02

Leading up to your session, you will feel truly LED by a pro who’s holding your hand (and fixing your hair) the whole way.

Armed with your prep guide, you’ll know exactly what to wear, where to go, and what to bring. No need to do your hair or makeup: my team’s got you covered!

The session itself is just plain FUN. I offer guidance if you need it, but you’ll be surprised by how natural it feels to be yourself — like you’re hanging with a friend (‘cause you are!).


Many of my clients are mompreneurs like me. But even if you’re not, I bet we have at least one thing in common: caring a heck of a lot about our businesses.

I know what it’s like to juggle real life while showing up online. It’s hard! But the right brand photos — and the right brand photographer — make it a whole lot easier.

Wife, mom, and creative entrepreneur (sound familiar?)

"If you’re on the fence about investing in branding photography, I can’t recommend Nicole enough!"

what they're saying

Madison of Kato Custom Homes

“I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Nicole has a warm, approachable energy, and by the end of the session, it felt more like hanging out with a longtime friend than a photo shoot.

She’s incredibly professional, punctual, and clearly passionate about her work. I’m thrilled with how the photos turned out, and can’t wait to use them to improve my brand identity!"

“She made me feel at ease in front of the camera—something that doesn’t come naturally to me.”

what they're saying

Gianna of La Loretta 

“Having Nicole update my branding photos for my floral business was nothing short of amazing! She put in so much behind-the-scenes prep work to make sure the session seamless. She truly cares about what she does. I cannot wait to start using my new branding photos to elevate my floral game."

“Nicole is a natural behind the camera and makes her clients feel at ease during shoots.”

I also include professional hair and makeup in Signature and VIP packages for no extra charge. My trusted pros will meet you at your home or on location to create a natural, camera-ready look that gives you that added jolt of confidence. It’s one of my clients’ favorite perks!

We’ll choose the best location(s) for your branding goals. If you already have an office or venue in mind, great! Otherwise, I’ll help you come up with the perfect spot: a custom home, studio, coffee shop, outdoor setting, etc. I also cover location fees up to $75 per hour for Signature and VIP sessions, so you have flexibility without added stress!
My calendar typically books 4–6 weeks in advance. Because each session is thoughtfully planned, I encourage you to book as early as possible (although I’ll never rush you into a decision). After your session, you’ll receive your proofing gallery within two weeks, with your final gallery delivered one week later.

Absolutely. While I typically require a 50% deposit to secure your spot, I’m happy to work with you on a flexible payment plan if needed. Investing in your brand should feel exciting, not overwhelming!
Well, perfect… because I have a Brand Refresh service just for you! This one-hour session is perfect for entrepreneurs who just need a little polish or pop of something new.

Typically chosen by my repeat clients, the Brand Refresh is an investment of $997 for your choice of 15 edited images. Inquire here if you’re interested!

My calendar typically books out 4–6 weeks in advance, especially for Signature and VIP sessions. Because each shoot is thoughtfully planned with strategy and intention, the earlier we start, the better.
The best way to secure your spot is by scheduling a complimentary Discovery Call—once we’re locked in, we’ll begin planning your dream session behind the scenes. You’ll feel taken care of every step of the way.

And once we shoot? You’ll have your full gallery in hand within two weeks.
