As a Personal Branding photographer, I have been connected with some pretty amazing people. Everyone from Musicians to Artists, Coaches to executives, and many more. A coach to CEOs is a first and what a pleasure it was photographing Kathleen for some new publicity images and a new venture she is undertaking.
The more I work as a photographer the more I see a need to have professional images created. We live in an age where our visions, personalities, and values are becoming our brands. More and more people are striking out on their own to create their own work that they love centered around what they value. Whether it is teaching yoga or being a life coach, we all bring a unique spin and vantage point to those areas that many can relate to. Kathy has a unique perspective and is harnessing her strengths to build her own career as a coach.
Strength in the Boardroom and
Kathy has captivating energy when you are in her presence. From fun and witty to direct and commanding. This photoshoot was meant to capture the many sides of her personality and brand as it has evolved over the years. She is taking her background from working with top CEO’s across the country and branching out on her own and doing a podcast, online classes, and more. As we discussed her brand and how she wanted to be portrayed the ideas started flowing. From strength in the boardroom to the encouraging mentorship she provides. We wanted to cover it all.
We decided on several locations including the board room at the Cumberland Club, which she is a member of. The large windows created some dynamic lighting for some environmental portraits. Some modern studio portraits were also created to show her other side. We had a great time and special thanks to Carrie Montgomery for styling and Lesley of On-Set Salon for Hair and Makeup.
