Recently I invested in a branding photoshoot with Vanda Szabo. I knew I needed to update my profile picture and add a bit more pzazz to my online presence, but I had no idea how much more than that I would get from working with Vanda!

A trusted local business friend had commented on LinkedIn about her work, and I decided to check her out. Go here if you want to take a look.

We had a connection call to get to know each other a bit and learn more about what the session would include. She followed up with emailed resources to help me plan to get the most out of my day, suggestions on what props I might want to bring with me to tell my story. There was a group call with the other ladies who would be having their shoot, to connect in advance and start the ball rolling.

On the day everyone was welcomed to a beautiful venue, with lots of opportunities to choose different settings, indoors or outdoors (even with rain!) There was a hair and makeup expert to get us looking our best. Vanda even make cake

All of this was fabulous. Most of all though was the warmth I felt in community with other beautiful women, all of us guided by Vanda’s creativity and ideas for getting our best images, all of us vibing in the collective energy of fun and mutual support.

Afterwards Vanda edited all the images within a few days and it was really difficult to choose from the gallery – I wanted all of them! You’ll see how fab they are as you explore this site: I hope you love them too.
