Hi, I'm Stefanie!

I've been a leading personal branding & lifestyle photographer in San Diego and Southern California for more than 12 years.

I get giddy seeing my clients' confidence grows as they start to see themselves as others do - a bright shining light serving their clients - with our photos in articles and magazine covers, book covers, and more. And I get to cheer from the sidelines!

When I started noticing the ones who were getting mucked up in the strategy, shying away in the sidelines, the second-guessing and the DIY overwhelm, I knew I needed to build a bridge, to help them achieve their brilliance that the world could see and would clamour for!

I'm Looking forward to connecting with you!

Does This Sound Like You?

You're a rockstar.

You're Brilliant and you know it. You're an expert thought leader or service provider - but also seem to be the Best Kept Secret!

You look at your To Do List, and realize you went another day without posting on Social Media. Actually, it’s been several weeks since you’ve posted, butyou’re feeling too overwhelmed.

You had the launch, wrote the book, did the workshop, and you did maybe a post or 2 for each, maybe an email, but it didn’t get much traction, and you’re feeling a bit defeated.

You know you should post more for your business, but you don’t want it to “be all about me”. It feels too vain, conceited, like you’re going to turn people off.

You DID have a special offer, and posted a LOT, but people stopped engaging, and you may have lost a few followers.

You’re afraid to share too much about your personal life, so you keep it strictly business, but your personality feels a bit stifled.

You post for the sake of posting, but you don’t really have a game plan, and you don’t seem to get any real traction, engagement, leads, or clients.

It's Time to Invest in YOU!

If not now, when?

How many times have you put something off - over and over.

Build a Bold Brand That Attracts, Converts, and Elevates

You're not just here to "look good".

You're here to lead!

Your brand is more than colors and logos. It’s the full expression of who you are, what you stand for, why you do what you do, who you help, what you offer, and why you’re the expert people should be paying attention to.

With intention, we craft your visuals, voice, and content to align, so your business grows with strategy and intention.

We pull out what lights you up, what attracts your clients to you, and package it in a way that's easy to talk about.

Is this part of photoshoot prep?: Not really, but perhaps . . .

Ideally, you have a great set of professional branding photos to work with.

But if your vibe/style, or brand messaging is getting an update, then you may want to book a new branding photoshoot.

As we discuss content strategy, we'll touch on some key images you'll want. And I can offer a creative shot list/art direction as a separate call.

--> Ask how you can save on a branding shoot with me if you've also done an intensive!
Maybe I'm not ready. Should I wait?: If you've got most of the elements for your brand (logo, colors, offerings and pricing, and you know what you do/offer) and you're willing to learn the rest - but your hesitation is around confidence or not understanding how it all comes together, then the answer is, NO!

Don't wait.

This is HOW you get ready.

The intensive lays out the strategy, the know-how, resources, tools, and the framework to help you work smarter, not harder to grow your business.
I've done some branding stuff before, do I need this?: That depends.

Does your brand look, sound, and feel like you?

Does it light you up?

If so - that's amazing, keep on shining your light!

If you feel your brand needs a little polishing, tweaking, or a more consistent, cohesive system to highlight your expertise and to connect with your audience - and attract new clients - then yes, this intensive will definitely help with that.

Fill out the form below, and we'll get you set up.
What's the time commitment?: Short version: A few hours pre-work (varies per individual), about 4 hours for the half-day intensive, and then ongoing implementation.

My goal is to help you streamline, and create a habit. It's not an overnight success. And as with most things in life, you get out of it what you put into it.

Consistency is key.

And when your brand grows big enough, you'll be able to hire out for someone to manage your brand, and you'll have a foundation to know what to ask for/look for when you bring on help.

It's Time to Unleash Your Brilliance!
