Your Brilliance, Branded!
The Brand Strategy Intensive
A VIP Done-With-You Experience
You’re the expert, but if your brand doesn't clearly show it, a lot of people won't know it!
Enter the Brand Strategy Intensive.
This half-day intensive is for entrepreneurs ready to ditch the DIY guesswork & confusion, and glow up their brand with clarity, confidence, cohesiveness . . . and a scroll-stopping presence.
Why a Brilliant Brand Changes Everything!
When your brand feels like you—
authentic and aligned, polished and powerful, cohesive and consistent—
people notice.
It’s how you stop blending in,and start booking out.
This day is designed to extract your expertise, bolster your brilliance, and connect the dots between your personality, your expertise, your images, and your marketing presence—so your brand becomes a client-attracting machine that’s as strategic as it is stunning.
Why I Created This
As a branding photographer for several years, I found that most of my clients landed in one of two groups:
1. Those who understand that social media and marketing help grow their audience, leads, clients. . . and their bottom line, and they have a marketing team that manages that for them.
OR
2. Those who know they need good photos, but don't know how to use them, or what to do with them, so the images sit in their Dropbox folder, with the occasional swap out of their profile pictures on social media and on their About/Bio page, because the thought of using social media for business is just 'too much'.
But what about those that fall in the middle? They see others utilizing social media, and know they should be using it, so they can show up as the expert they are.
But they lack a strategy in marketing themselves - often shying from the spotlight, not knowing what to post, how to create a call-to-action, or how to streamline things so it's not an all-consuming time suck.
They get that deer-in-the-headlights sense of overwhelm.
They set goals to step up and 'do it', realizing they've been saying that for months - maybe even years.
Sound familiar?
If so, that's actually good!
And if you're ready to make that change, then this intensive takes YOUR commitment and MY expertise and guidance. as we create in real time, and you walk away with tangible assets, content strategy, tools, tips, resources, confidence, and SO MUCH MORE!
No more shrinking from the spotlight.
You're Brilliant - and it's your turn to shine!
The Intensive - What to Expect
We're going to do some pre-work, a questionnaire, a phone call, and getting into the nitty gritty of your brand, getting crystal clear on your
Your Brand Identity Matters!
Your Brand Identity is so much more than your profile photo, a pretty logo, & a color palette.
It's the beautiful blending of alignment, strategy, and visuals - along with your personality and expertise. That's where the magic happens!
That's how we create a polished brand that feels nice and easy, a natural extension of you.
It's Brandtastic!
You're not merely showing up, you're confidently letting your light shine!
Your expertise, authenticity, and personality ARE the beacon.
Your Brilliance, Branded.

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 enjoy 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, the tech, and the second-guessing DIY overwhelm, I knew I need to build a bridge, to help them achieve their brilliance that the world could see.
Looking forward to connecting with you!
