Through Autumn’s Lens says it all! As someone loath to be photographed, my business required that I have a headshot and photographs with dogs. I wasn’t sure what would be harder to capture, the moving animals, or my reluctant, awkward self. What a treasure to find Autumn who was grounded, had a sound vision for how to capture the essence of my work and my authentic self, and who put me at ease in a way that is hard to describe, but I imagine is essential for amazing photography. Autumn immediately was able to capture me though a unique lens that allowed me to be myself. We had a good laugh as I approached the unveiling of the photos with trepidation, only to find that her lens captured the magic of my work with dogs, the genuineness of my heart, and the beautiful City of Petaluma! Wow - love Autumn’s lens!!

Your photos have been a beneficial part of my process. They have invigorated beauty and fire in me and that has to do with your very impressive presence photographing. I have never experienced somebody who could meet me the way you do. As I have been creating the slideshow for my master class having your photos to make the slides has been really beautiful. If I was not self disciplined, and I was hyper indulgent and impulsive I would like to do a photo shoot with you every month, but that would be just not needed because the photos you take really last.

Autumn shoots with love and captures beauty. "On set" she brings a warm, easy way; a palpable joy in her work; and a talent both for being an unobtrusive documentarian and the "perfect kid fluffer", as we jokingly dubbed her. I've worked with her twice thus far - to shoot PR pix for a kids yoga class and for our annual family portraits - and have loved the results each time.

When Autumn and I first came together to talk about my photography needs we were already acquainted through our kids. I was in need of lifestyle photos of my rental cabin for our website and social media pages. Autumn listened to our wish list of spaces to photograph and our request for not too many shots with mine or my kids faces in them. She gave us beautiful images, whole room and details. Warm cozy nooks indoors and out. Autumn captured many of my favorite spots in the cabin that I hadn't thought to ask for. We were so happy with the results!

When you book a business marketing photos session with me, we will set up an initial planning meeting where I will ask you questions about your small business and the goals you have for your marketing photos.
With this information as our guide, we will put together a plan for your photography. My ultimate goal is to capture the story of your business, where that intersects with your personal story and create photos which speak to your potential clients. With the photos we create you should be able to engage your ideal client in a compelling way.
Typically I start with my standard 90 minute photography session. Once we’ve created and edited the imagery from our initial session I’m always happy to attend an event such as the opening of a new store location or create new images about a new product offering or photograph new business team members - there’s always an evolving story to capture - I’ll typically work with my business marketing collaborators several times per year.
The photos we create together will be useful for your social marketing, your email lists and your website. Visual stories capture the imagination. I really hope we get to meet so that I can hear the story of your business and your marketing dreams. I’m also connected with a wonderful network of local photographers which I can refer you to if my photography style isn’t quite what you’re looking for. Have a peek for yourself at some of the other amazing photographers in our community!
