Why Your Headshots & Branding Photos Need Professional Hair and Makeup And Why I Team Up With Jessica Strobel Photography
Let me ask you something. You've invested in a branding photo session. You've picked your outfits, scouted your location, maybe even color-coordinated your whole vibe. You show up to the shoot feeling pretty good and then you see the photos.
Your hair looks flat. Your skin looks washed out. That thing you thought was a minor flyaway situation? Front and center, baby.
Been there. Seen it happen. And I'm here to make sure it never happens to you.
Why I Partner With Jessica Strobel Photography
Great hair and makeup means nothing if the photographer doesn't know how to capture it. And great photography means nothing if the person in front of the lens doesn't feel like their best self.
That's why my partnership with Jessica Strobel Photography is genuinely one of my favorite things I do.
Jessie is an award-winning Minneapolis photographer who specializes in branding and headshot sessions and honestly, her energy is everything. She's laid back, she's talented, she's hilarious, and she has this incredible ability to make people feel at ease in front of the camera. Which, if you've ever felt awkward getting your photo taken (hi, same), is everything.
Between the two of us, you get the full package:
✨ Hair that photographs beautifully and holds all day ✨ Makeup that's fresh, camera-ready, and still feels like you ✨ A photographer who knows exactly how to capture the light, the angle, and the vibe ✨ A whole experience that feels way more like hanging out with two friends who are really good at their jobs
The result? Photos you'll actually want to use. On your website. Your LinkedIn. Your Instagram. Your email newsletter. Your pitch deck. Everywhere.
What to Expect When You Book Hair & Makeup With Your Branding Session
Before the shoot, we'll chat about your brand, your vibe, and what you're going for. Corporate and polished? Warm and approachable? Bold and editorial? There's no wrong answer we just need to make sure your look matches your message.
Day of, I'll get you camera-ready with a custom blowout or styled look that works with your hair texture and the shoot aesthetic, professional makeup that photographs beautifully without looking overdone think glowing skin, defined features, and zero flashback and touch-up prep so you know exactly how to keep your look fresh throughout the session.
During the shoot, Jessie works her magic. Her proofing galleries are up within 24 hours and the final turnaround is typically one week. You'll choose the digitals you want and walk away with images that actually represent the incredible human you are.
Who Is This For?
Honestly? Anyone who wants to show up and look incredible on camera. But especially small business owners and entrepreneurs who need updated headshots that reflect their brand, personal brands building their online presence, real estate agents, coaches, consultants, and creatives who need polished professional images, and anyone who hasn't updated their headshots in years and still has a LinkedIn photo from 2017 no judgment, but also... let's fix that.
