Let me say the quiet part out loud…
You don’t need to earn the right to be visible.

You don’t need to be more polished, more ready, more anything to start showing up.

True brand photography is about capturing your energy, your vision, your magic—so the people you’re meant to serve can actually find you and feel YOU. 

If you’ve been holding back, second-guessing, or waiting for a sign… this is it.  #personalbrandphotographer #creativeentreprenuer #brandphotographer #personalbrandphotography

Before I was a brand photographer… I was a paralegal.
So when I tell you I don’t mess around when it comes to contracts? I mean it.

Contracts protect your boundaries, your income, and your peace of mind.
You can’t afford to DIY this.
This is your sign to stop copy/pasting that dusty contract you found in a Facebook group/Google/ChatGPT…

These are the templates I use and trust in my own business. They’re lawyer-written, easy to implement, and don’t read like legal soup.
PLUS: TLP is a woman-owned business!

🌷Now through May 22, they’re 40% off sitewide 🌷Plus, use my code BLOOM10 for an extra $10 off.

You know I’m only shouting this from the rooftops because I want you protected. You deserve that peace of mind.

Comment “ LEGIT” for a link your future self will thank you for!

Will I still use the footage for something? Maybe. 😂 Also, does watching yourself ever get less weird? Man, that’s what I really look like or what I actually do on zoom? I know I’m fidgety but…
