Stop Diluting Your Expertise:
Build a Powerful Visual Storytelling Library That Attracts Your Ideal Clients
Every expert like you, whether you're a speaker, trainer, coach, consultant or author, understands that your audience connects with more than just your words – they're constantly evaluating your visual presence.
Your photos are critical assets that directly influence your credibility, instantly shape perceptions, and significantly impact your ability to attract the right clients. Long story short, you need to look like you’re worth more than you charge.
“I share videos all the time - that’s all I need.”
While video is undoubtedly a powerful tool, it's not an Either/Or situation - it’s Yes/And. A single photograph can tell a multitude of stories and be used in countless ways, offering versatility that a specific video narrative lacks. Your Visual Storytelling Library ensures you have impactful assets for diverse applications and compliments your video content to reach a wider audience more consistently.
“I use stock photos - that’s good enough.”
While stock photos check the box, they lack your unique magic and essence, and you simply blend into the crowd. If your goal is create distinction from other experts in your space and justify your premium rates, stock images is simply NOT good enough.
Are Your Photos Holding Your Brand Back From More Clients and Higher Fees?
If you’re on a 3-to-5 year growth path, you want more ideal clients, higher fees, and a thriving business.
But do your visuals reflect your true value—or even look like you today? Outdated and stock images can sabotage your goals by suggesting you’re less relevant, invested, or trustworthy than you claim through your words.
You solve that problem with a customized visual storytelling library filled with genuine images capturing your essence, expertise in action and the unique details that set you apart. Aligning with your strategic goals fuels the ROI you seek, keeping your brand current, compelling, and unmistakably you.
Introducing THE
Visual Storytelling Partnership:
More Than Just Photos — It's Your Brand's Visual Evolution
It’s time to retire the 10 year-old headshot and kill the stock photo library subscriptions forever.
The annual Visual Storytelling Partnership is a strategic, year-long collaboration designed to build a dynamic, ever-evolving and genuine visual representation of your brand that directly supports the growth of your business. These images showcase not just who you are and what you do, but how you do it and the unique flavor of magic you bring to the table.
The goal? To make you look like the CREDIBLE, RELEVANT, and OBVIOUS choice you are for those you serve.
Here’s a Glimpse Inside The Annual
Visual Storytelling Partnership:
*Note - The order of events can be adjusted and customized to your specific schedule.
THE FOUNDATION: Your Visual Storytelling Library
This is your central, continuously evolving archive of genuine visual assets. Organized for easy access, this library becomes an invaluable resource for all your marketing, content, and communication needs.
STRATEGIC CLARITY: Four Quarterly Deep-Dive Strategy Sessions
To me, these sessions are the most important part of the whole process. This is about focusing on YOU—just you and me partnering to proactively plan to tell your story visually in a way that your audience will never forget.
We kick off with an initial in-depth strategy call to understand your core business, short and long-term aspirations, and specific goals for attracting more clients, increasing revenue, and enhancing engagement.
Throughout the year, we'll have 3 additional quarterly strategy sessions to review your library, implement images into your current online presence, plan upcoming ‘magic moment’ sessions, identify the 'missing details,' and make sure everything remains aligned with your evolving business goals. This ensures you’re using every visual asset to strategically position you exactly as you want to be seen and making you look magical in the process.
BUILDING BLOCKS: Your Core Asset Collection
In this initial session, we’re creating a visual storytelling pantry that ensures you have a wealth of high-quality headshots and lifestyle images ready for your website, social media, speaker/media kits, social profiles podcast graphics, slides, and other marketing materials. These assets form the bedrock of your brand presence.
This first session is critical because when you want to raise your fees and attract more clients, every one of your core asset images must not just look good—they must be jaw-droppingly good. They must, in a brief moment, tell them exactly what makes you unique and why they need to hire you. And we won’t stop shooting until that objective is met.
CAPTURING YOUR UNIQUE IMPACT: Four "Capture The Magic" Shoots
It's not enough to share stellar core assets. Decision makers need to see is you in action. Spread strategically throughout the year, these targeted sessions are designed to document your unique expertise in action – keynotes, workshops, client interactions, behind-the-scenes moments, book signings, podcast interviews, or any other pivotal moments in your business that showcase your 'magic'.
These sessions, up to a full day to capture the before, during and after the event, are my favorite because I love hunting for the fleeting magic moments within the moments where you're nailing it, when you’re flow and crushing the whole process. These specific photos are the secret sauce to standing out and becoming the obvious choice for decision makers.
ADDRESSING THE UNFORSEEN: Capturing the Missing Details
This critical session is reserved to capture any unique or specific visual needs that arise throughout the year. Whether it's a book launch, a key podcast interview, an impromptu ‘magic moment’, merchandise, a special team dynamic you want to highlight, or any other intangible aspect of your brand and business, this session ensures we capture it before the moment is gone.
