New Headshot Option: Single Headshots Now Available in the East Lansing Studio for $150

August 28, 2025

I’ve had a “secret menu item” for a single headshot in my East Lansing photo studio for a while now, but I’ve had enough requests for this option that I’ve finally decided to take it off the secret menu and make it public for everyone. You can now book a single headshot session directly on my booking page. All headshots are by appointment only.

With that, I’ve made a few changes to simplify the process. Here’s a comparison chart to show you what you get with each session option:

Lansing Company Headshots + On-site Branding “Stock Photos”

March 17, 2022

RSI Logistics, based out of Okemos, Michigan, recently moved into a new office space and wanted to create a set of custom company “stock images” to pull from for their website and other marketing visuals. They brought me in to take commercial headshots and photograph team members on-site in their space.

Nurse Injector Studio Branding Headshots

March 13, 2022

Sarah already had a solid Instagram presence and general online presence as a nurse injector before she came to me for new branding photos, but she wanted a new set of personalized stock photos to draw from as she markets her business online.

After she filled out my Story Session Questionnaire, we designed the session to be bright and cheerful—and to pull in color elements from her own thoughtful space.

We used this mood board and her questionnaire as a jumping off point to choose props, colors, outfits, and general style. There’s a rack in the studio to bring in a slew of outfits, which makes it easy to quickly choose combinations as we move through looks.

Many thanks to Katelyn Bontrager for doing Sarah’s hair (Katelyn works out of Annie Kathryn’s Hair + Bridal Salon across the hall from the studio, which is such a nice convenience).

Nutritionist Branding Photography in The Lansing Studio

February 25, 2022

Summer came to me looking for branding photos for her business, Heal With Summer, a Virtual Wellness Clinic. The photos are for her website, social media, business cards, and any future printed marketing materials. When she filled out her Story Session Questionnaire, she told me that some of the words she wanted to associate with her business are:

Friendly
Approachable
Healthy
Holistic
Fun
Happy

Summer’s target audience is women ages 20 – 45 who are looking for answers to their frustrating health symptoms. They’re looking for someone young, intelligent, understanding, compassionate and open-minded to guide them back to better health through nutrition and functional lab testing.

Summer also told me that her brand fits with the following brand archetypes:

The Jester (fun loving, playful, optimistic)
The Everyman (friendly, humble, authentic)
The Caregiver (caring, warm, reassuring)

So we set out to design a photo session from there, starting with a mood board based on her brand colors and a few inspiration photos from my past sessions:

Once we had the mood board, we put together a list of props and outfits:

Outfits in brand colors and light/bright to portray the brand vibe (e.g. white tops)
Food/fruit to show in the kitchen
Laptop
Plants (already at the studio)
A favorite coffee mug (Summer mentioned that coffee is something she has in common with her target audience)
Summer dog, Zu (along with a helper to bring Zu along and take him home after he was done)

This was a quick session—we got a ton of great new branding images in less than an hour for Summer to elevate her brand to the next level
