show
I have photographed business owners and professionals for 20 years, women and men, more than 1,000 clients, and I have learned this: the ones who get remembered are not the loudest ones in the room. They are the clearest ones. They show up as themselves, on purpose, and people trust them faster because of it.
That is the pink starburst experience. Joyful. Bright. Unmistakably you. You bring you, and I will bring the joy. Deal?

A headshot is one polished photo of your face. Personal branding photos tell the full story of your business, with multiple looks, settings, and details. A headshot says, this is me. Branding photos say, this is me, this is what I do, and this is how it feels to work with me.
If you only need one current photo, UPDATE is your session. If you need photos that work everywhere, your website, your social media, your speaker bio, and your proposals, that is a branding session.
Horlando Cornejal — a branding session for his dating profile: LaJune photographed him so people could see him and his brand on his dating profile.
"I had an amazing experience Ms. Lajune, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is interested. She is animated, and I felt comfortable!"
Dr. Dorothy Mosby — branding photos for her new coaching and consulting business.
"Working with LaJune was amazing! I needed a branding photographer for my new coaching and consulting business and finding her was an answered prayer. She helped make me feel comfortable throughout the shoot and made it both fun and empowering. The photos are incredible, and it is clear that she brings both skill and joy to her work. LaJune also connected me with makeup artist, Nelly, who did an amazing job for the shoot. Great experience!"
LaToya Walker — a repeat client who has worked with LaJune three times.
"I've had the opportunity to work with LaJune 3x and she has done a phenomenal job every single time! She consistently offers professionalism and joy in her studio. Not only is it beautiful and clean, but she plays music tailored to the clients' taste. 10/10 recommend!"

Depends on your need. CT branding photo sessions will allow for up to 6 wardrobe changes based on which collection you choose.
Photoshop is available if specifically requested at a rate of $150 per image. Any additional editing beyond the norm, may incur additional fees and will be determined by the degree of the image alteration. We do encourage everyone to work with a makeup artist (please ask us for a trusted recommendation). By request, we will also provide you with a recommended stylist, to assist with wardrobe selections.
I prefer 2 weeks. Keep in mind that with more time, I can share helpful pre-session guidance and information so you can have the best session possible. Your balance must be paid in full 72 hours prior to your session date.
