Branding Portfolio
Here’s a small collection of the lovely humans I’ve photographed — and the stories behind their sessions.
From wellness coaches to tradies, beauty studios to creatives — these are real people using their branding photos across their websites, socials, and marketing in ways that feel true to them.
I’m a big believer that branding photos should feel like you — and that you should actually be able to use them.
So instead of putting every image I’ve ever taken on one page, here’s a handful of client highlights.
Simple, relaxed, real-life examples of how other small business owners are using their branding photos across their marketing.
And if you want to dive deeper, you’ll find full case studies (with lots of behind-the-scenes bits) over on the blog.
Zoe Hunt, Sage & Well
Clinical Nutritionist · Naturopath · Pharmacist
Zoe runs Sage & Well, a nutrition and natural medicine clinic supporting clients of all ages, with a particular focus on skin health, gut health, and preventative care.
She wanted her brand to feel professional, warm, and approachable — and needed a set of images she could confidently use across her website and marketing, without relying on stock photos.
Zoe joined one of my Social Shoots, which suited her work perfectly. Because her role is consultation-based, having other people around made the photos feel natural and realistic, rather than staged or awkward.
The day itself was relaxed and genuinely fun — more like a day out than a traditional photoshoot.
“It was like a fun day out with the girls — and I couldn’t believe how many good photos I walked away with.”

Sarah Davies, Sweet Spot Business Coaching
Business Strategist & Coach
Sarah is a strategist and coach who helps business owners turn their knowledge and expertise into a profitable, sustainable business — especially creatives, coaches, and consultants who know they have something valuable to offer but aren’t always sure what action to take next.
She booked her first Social Shoot when she already had an established business and was showing up consistently online, but felt like her small set of professional images was starting to feel repetitive. She wanted more variety, more flexibility, and images she could actually use day to day.
Sarah has since joined two Social Shoots, using them as a way to refresh her content, support new program launches, and keep her brand visuals feeling current and consistent.
What she loved most was the experience itself —
the variety of locations, the interactive shots,
and the fact that everything was taken care of.
“Getting photos done was one of the best
investments I’ve made in my business, I
use them every day.”

Team Murphy — Bayleys Real Estate
Residential Real Estate
Team Murphy is a growing real estate team led by Mike Murphy at Bayleys, working with residential sellers and buyers across the local area.
When we worked together, the focus was on creating a strong, polished brand presence that reflected Mike’s experience, while also showcasing the wider team in a way that felt cohesive and professional.
As the team has grown, it’s been important that their visuals feel consistent across everyone involved, rather than looking like a collection of mismatched headshots. The goal was to create images that worked both individually and as a group, so the brand felt unified no matter where people encountered it.
The shoot focused on clean, confident portraits alongside more natural interaction shots, giving the team flexibility to use the images across their website, marketing, and listing materials in a way that feels polished, professional, and consistent.
