Elevate Your Professional Image with Personal Branding Photos & Headshots
Meet Your Personal Branding Expert, Alison!
For me, branding photography is more than just visuals; it’s a bridge to build connections. With a keen understanding that branding is the first introduction to your ideal client, I revel in the art of building the plan that makes that initial connection.
In my lens, branding isn’t merely about products or services; it’s about the people building their dream. I immerse myself in the story of your business and extract it into visuals that resonate with your audience. Through my lens, I craft a narrative that goes beyond aesthetics — it’s a story that invites your ideal client into the heart of your brand.
Branding isn’t a static image; it’s a dynamic tool to establish relationships. It’s the visual handshake, the warm greeting that sets the tone for meaningful connections.
So, are you ready to introduce your business in a way that goes beyond the surface?
Let me be the storyteller of your brand — where every image speaks the language of connection.
It is time to curate a cohesive, strategic plan of brand messaging, smart social media, all with great professional portraits.

Allison Knaup2024-04-24Alison was a speaker today on branding and I learned 2 important next steps for my own business. Took several pages of notes to sit down with and reflect on for the tiny tweaks that will make big differences in how others find me. Not only have I used her in the past for outdoor headshots, will do so in the near future, and now as a strategic partner to co time to help my businesses grow!Britain Sterling Lenz2024-01-24Alison captured my daughters 10th birthday in the snow. It was planned and a big request, but it SNOWED! The photos are magical and that was almost 3 years ago now, but the photos are the most beautiful and it commemorated a really special day. Alison is always joyful and her eye is unmatched. I am so grateful for these photos and will definitely be scheduling with Alison again!Lori Sharpsteen2024-01-24Alison had marked so many of our milestones: wedding, high school graduation, moving, headshots and team photos! Amazing job on all! ❤️❤️❤️Alexis Bingham2024-01-24Alison did a wonderful job with our engagement and wedding pictures. Highly recommend!Todd Schumacher2023-09-15Alison is amazing! She's extremely creative and organized, and always delivers a top-notch product. I can't recommend her enough.Trisha Zalenski2023-09-14Alison does a great job capturing the small details of our family. She’s done our wedding and the newborn/family photos of our first child. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else for the important life events.Brad Starnes2023-07-13Alison has been photographing my family since I was a sophomore in High School. Since then she has capture moments like my senior pics and more recently headshots for my company. If you're looking for your next photographer, Alison's ability to capture your moment paired with her fun and quirky personality makes these memories even more memorable.Rachael Johnson2023-03-28Alison did my family's pics and they were absolutely beautiful! She was great with my 2 teens (in the middle of a Midwest summer heat wave, when one did whatever and the other teen hated sweat and bugs lol). Her patience and vision is incredible!!! I'm actually hiring her again for my daughter's Sr. Pics (yeah, the one that hates bugs and sweat)! Thanks Alison!!!Marcie Handler2022-09-20I had Alison do my headshots awhile back, but when she said she'd love to do our family photo shoot, she had no idea what she was getting into. We had 36 family members from 1-90 years old all getting together. It was the first time every single one had been able to make it. Obviously, we didn't want to just trust this to anyone. Not only did she take hundreds, yes hundreds, of gorgeous pictures that really captured the group, She cut her visit with her grandmother a little short to get to us before we started having melt downs among the younger (lol, and older) people. We don't know when the stars will all align so perfectly that we can all be together again, but we have beautiful pictures to commemorate a wonderful visit. By the time she left, she was like one of the family.Kirsten Brauch2022-08-19Alison is the BEST around! She not only took beautiful family photos for us, but also took photos of my workplace's Angels Among Us Dinner & Auction. She is easy to work with, cares about her clients, and takes amazing photos!
