"When I booked my personal branding session, I was looking for a photographer who would really understand my vision and help me execute it, not just take nice photos, but create images that clearly represent my brand. From the very start, Joelle got it.

The first point of call was wardrobe — what I was going to wear on the day, the style, and the overall image I wanted to project. I explained this loosely, and she came back with a vision board that captured not only the style, but also the imagery and poses perfectly. From that moment, I knew I had chosen the right person.

When I first saw my photos, I was blown away. Joelle has such a keen eye, and the final images felt intentional, elevated, and completely aligned with who I am. I now have a strong portfolio of images that I can use confidently for a long time to promote my brand.

And when I say I use them everywhere… I mean, everywhere 😅 They’re on my website, on my socials for content and marketing, even my Google search profile photo came from this shoot.

Since using the images, I’ve noticed a shift. I feel so much more confident putting myself out there, especially as I prepare to promote upcoming workshops. I’ve also received so many lovely comments about the photo. People really see me more clearly now.

I say all this to say: if you’re looking for a photographer who can capture you in a way that feels authentic, professional, and powerful, Joelle is 100% the one. ✨"
