Northern Michigan Branding | a13 Creative

Northern Michigan branding sessions that help your business shine with images that actually feel like you.

Whether you need professional headshots that pop on LinkedIn and your website, full branding photoshoots that tell your entrepreneurial story, or authentic visuals for social media and marketing—I got you.

We create relaxed, fun sessions with gentle prompts so you can drop the stiff corporate poses and just be your badass self. The result? Fine-art images you’ll love using everywhere—ones that build trust, attract clients, and scream “this is my brand.” Based in East Jordan and shooting across Northern Michigan (Traverse City, Charlevoix, Petoskey, and beyond), let’s make your brand visuals pure magic.

What You’ll Get from Your Branding Session

  • Professional headshots that convert on your site & profiles
  • Authentic lifestyle/business images for social & marketing
  • Zero judgment, woman-owned, LGBTQ+ welcoming vibe

01

Contact Me.

Headshots or full branding—I got you! Let me create the most badass, authentic images for your business that you’ve ever had.

02

Consultation.

I love getting to know my clients and THIS is when we get to talk about all the details of your branding session. We’ll talk about your vision, your brand colors/outfits/vibe, the perfect setting, and lock in a session date (if you’re in).

03

Session.

Now let’s have the fun! I’ll give you prompts to capture candid, genuine moments you can actually use for your website, social media, and headshots. I’m the biggest dork I know—which I promise will put your nerves at bay, make you laugh authentically, or both (it’s actually both).

04

Reveal.

One of my favorite things for any of my sessions is the “big reveal.” This is when we get to obsess over your images together. I usually schedule these 7-10 days after your session so I can handpick my favorites first (trust me, it is NOT an easy job) and do some initial post-processing. After our reveal meeting (in person or virtual—though I always prefer to see my people again), I’ll add any requested final touches to your selected images. Then I’ll process any orders (albums, prints, digital packages, etc.) you might want.
