Personal Branding for a Harpist: Emily's Chicago Photoshoot
Emily's personal branding session was all about showing the two sides of their harp business. We created elegant portraits in beautiful gowns for their wedding and event work, then shifted into a sophisticated trouser-and-blouse look to represent their teaching. Keeping everything stripped back, natural, and not overdone allowed the images to feel polished while still feeling like Emily. And this was my first time ever photographing a harp in person... I had no idea how big they were!
