  • "Heidi exceeded my expectations & was a pleasure to work with"

    Heidi exceeded my expectations and was a pleasure to work with. Her “go getter” mentality behind the camera will make anyone feel confident & comfortable during their photo shoot.

  • "If you want to capture your brand in a way that feels natural and shows your personality, look no further..".

    Heidi gets what personal brand photography is, and if you want to capture your brand in a way that feels natural and shows your personality, look no further. I dread taking photos and have worked with other photographers before but would leave feeling like I didn’t have a great selection of photos to choose from."

    Marietta Gentles Crawford, LinkedIn Expert - New York

  • "Heidi's professionalism is absolutely stellar..."

    I don't know how she did it, but Heidi captured my essence. I never felt overly posed, was 100% comfortable and was never rushed. Heidi's professionalism is absolutely stellar, second to none. I felt that she truly cared about my shoot (maybe more than me, ha!). I would, without a doubt, rebook with Heidi in the future.

    Heidi helped guide me through the entire process by doing a pre-shoot planning session where we talked about my brand and what type of feeling I wanted my pictures to elicit...she made sure we planned out exactly what pictures were needed for my website, lead magnet, Facebook ads, social media profile images, so that nothing was missed. It was like working with a branding expert, stylist, consultant and photographer all wrapped up in one.

    Megan Weks - Founder of The Manfunnel Method®

  • She's a consummate professional

    I've never liked having my photos taken, and, truth be told, I've never been thrilled with any photos of me. That was until I worked with Heidi. She's a consummate professional. I was nervous until she made sure I wasn't..... I particularly appreciated how laid-back and easy-going she is...  But none of that would have mattered if I hadn't been absolutely thrilled with the results. Which I am. For the first time in my life I look like I think I look when I think about myself on my best days ;-) If you can afford to work with Heidi, then you absolutely must."

    Matthew Kimberley - Author & Public Speaker, Malta

  • Heidi not only knew exactly what I wanted, but she went above and beyond to create the BEST experience.

    Where do I start?! From the breathtaking backdrops chosen, to the personal care and attention given during the shoot, to the GORGEOUS photographs themselves!!! Heidi not only knew exactly what I wanted, but she went above and beyond to create the BEST experience. It was my first photoshoot so I was a little nervous, but Heidi's personality made me feel instantly comfortable and made the shoot FUN!!! And of course, when I saw the photos I drooled. Heidi genuinely cares about you and your business! If you're thinking about it, don't hesitate - I promise it's absolutely worth it!

    Penelope Kim - Miami, Florida

  • It was such a relief to work with someone who understood what I wanted to communicate

    “After putting off a new shoot for so long, when the opportunity to work with Heidi came up I jumped at the chance. It was such a relief to work with someone who understood what I wanted to communicate through my new photos. We laughed, explored, snapped and celebrated Best of all, it was so EASY, super fun and amazingly fast. I can firmly cross worrying about new photos off of my list - thank you Heidi. You totally rock!”

    Laura Husson - Photographed on the Isle of Wight, England

  • "I am convinced that Heidi was put on the planet to help women look and feel as strong and powerful as they are."

    Heidi should rename her entire business "Make Me Look Hot, Hot, Hot!" because that's exactly what she's a flipping genius at—and I speak from personal experience, after having done a full-blown photo shoot with this goddess of confidence and swagger. Who knew there was a perfect way to tilt your head so EVERY PHOTO TURNS OUT PHENOMENAL? (At least, the ones where I'm not dying laughing at myself!) Who knew that doing this one little trick with your eyes changes everything? And, real talk: there are makeup and clothing tricks that I am fairly sure come straight from the celebrity files, because that's exactly how I felt the day of my photoshoot: like an absolute, charismatic, smoke-show celebrity! Given that my iPhone selfies would argue otherwise, I am convinced that Heidi was put on the planet to help women look and feel as strong and powerful as they are. And bonus: my headshots turned out siiiiiiiiiiiiiick! (And I'm thrilled to report that, yes, they have made me money. A lot of it.)

  • I never would have put the pieces together if it hadn’t been for this course.

    Heidi’s course made me look at my photoshoot in a whole new way. Her ideas inspired me to create a coherent vision for my shoot that is the best version of me, and exactly what my clients need to see to have the utmost confidence in my abilities. I never would have put the pieces together if it hadn’t been for this course. Heidi is turning me into a star!

    Mary Fernandez - Visibility Strategist, San Diego, California

  • An understanding of the needs of a photo shoot, how to prepare, how to get the best out of it. Confidence is a huge issue when being photographed and we can often be filled with self doubt. This really focuses on the issues around this such as -what to wear, hair, make-up and what to expect on the day. Putting all this together means you can make the whole experience more positive and able to get the photos you want for your business.

    Andrea Morgan - Content Creator London, England

  • You not only learn to get specific on your target client, but you learn tips for finding the best locations for your shoot, props to use to spice up your images, hair & makeup tips, posing, clothes to wear, and more. I'd never thought about it in such detail.....but now I can't WAIT to hire a photographer & turn all of my ideas into reality! I have so much more confidence in being able to communicate my vision to a photographer

    Vicky Cook - Heart & Moxie Coaching

  • This course blows my mind. It covers things I never even would have thought of! It will open your eyes to things your photographer should know as well

Reviews for Personal Branding Photography Academy

  • Be sure to clear your diary for Office Hours, it's like having coffee with your best friends. I am going to have withdrawal symptoms! Be prepared for a journey of self-reflection with Heidi who has abundant wisdom, talent and warmth. Before the course I hated having my photograph taken. I felt so self-conscious about my body and it really showed. While I'm not lining up to be a model, yet I have a quiet confidence about branding photography that is translating to other areas of my life. I can love and honour my beautiful curves, they are part of me and my journey!

    Bev Roberts - Australia

  • Before Heidi & I met I was unsure about putting my face on my website, much less on a book cover! She has {helped me} erase all of my fears and doubts. I'm now PROUDLY putting my face and image in front of my brand! Her course is a must take for any entrepreneur who needs to gain confidence with their online visibility!

    Natalia Levey - Tampa, Florida

  • I’ve never been totally comfortable in front of the camera. In fact, I would actually become anxious whenever being asked to be in a photo! I am more confident in front of the camera and feel like I have such a better plan for my business. I know who I am talking to now and have so much more clarity.

    Lynn Mee - Fitness Coach, Boston Mass

  • When I started the course I dreaded photo shoots and would pull everything together a day or a few hours before the shoot..now I have a plan.

    Sarah Mastriani-Levi

She is patient and has a great eye for angles, lighting and flattering. Thank you for the most beautiful photos of me ever!

  • The other women who have passed through Heidi’s lens support me by being beacons of success.

    The photo shoot opened my eyes to a world of women entrepreneurs. The other women who have passed through Heidi’s lens support me by being beacons of success. We are all encouraging each other simply by following our dreams. I feel honored to be apart of that community. No matter what happens, I know I can branch out into something else confidently knowing that I have photos that represent who I am.

    Sara Stakely - Philadelphia, PA

“I have had headshots done in the past with other photographers and it was an uncomfortable experience. They didn’t talk to me, give me any tips, just took shots and I felt stiff.  But with Heidi, I really feel free to be myself.  I was so glad she gave me tips for better shots (“move your head forward a bit”, etc.). We laughed a lot - and that makes for great pictures, too.”
— Kathy Heshelow, Founder of Sublime Skincare

  • “Love your professionalism, vision, and ability to truly feel each person and deliver the most amazing photos! So grateful for the beautiful work that you do! You are AMAZING! Thank you!
