something about mary
I help women entrepreneurs transform their personal brands through exceptional imagery.
Branding serves as a powerful tool to tell your story.
Whether you are an entrepreneur creating your empire or with a company helping to build theirs, how you present your true self to the world is absolutely vital.
It’s more than a portrait session. It’s an intimate branding experience we create together. We peel away the layers, get real, get energized, work hard & have fun.
Together, we create a series of images that reveal your essence, defy standards & empower your brand.

“Mary has photographed my in-person retreats, my clients’ brand sessions, my team, and my own personal & family portraits.
Every image she takes is candid, raw, and honest.
She knows how to capture a real person in a real moment.
She makes me – and everyone she photographs – feel beautiful. Because she sees us.”
