Julie reached out through a mutual friend as she was just starting her business, Colors of Grief, and needed a few images for her landing page. Working with her was such a joy. She brought along two friends to the session, one to help keep time (which I loved!!!) and the other to model with her for a few quick shots. Both were wonderful support and helped make the session feel easy, light, and collaborative.

As a brand photographer for women-owned small businesses, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing the transformative power of what imagery can do to aid in the empowerment of women entrepreneurs. I’ve captured moments of confidence, equality, and the realization of dreams – and I feel so lucky to keep doing this. Brand photography serves as a driving force for for empowerment, using experiences and insights from my clients to tell their brand story.

Happy New Year, my friend! As we step into 2026, there is always that beautiful, buzzing energy of a fresh start. Whether you’re pivoting your business, leveling up your brand, or simply rediscovering your own voice, I believe the “who” behind the brand is just as important as the service you represent.

This was my third brand session with Mind Body Birth, a wellness and birthing center in Los Angeles. Each time I photograph this incredible team, I feel like I’m witnessing something truly special.

Faith, the founder, trains a new group of midwives annually. This means we always update their headshots to reflect the team’s growth and evolution. This latest session was particularly exciting: welcoming Tamara, and Tchala officially became a partner alongside Faith. These were significant advancements for the practice, and it was a joy to document their evolving dynamic.

Let’s be real, how many times have you used that one go-to headshot from your brand session… and ignored the rest? You’ve got a whole gallery of stunning brand photos just sitting there, and I’m here to show you exactly how to use them all. I’m talking the behind-the-scenes shots, those curated little detail images, and everything in between—because brand photography is so much more than just a profile pic.

It was my second time having the pleasure of working with Meg of Harmony Marketing, and each session reinforces my love for collaborating with other marketing and branding teams. When clients understand the crucial concept and need for impactful brand photos and we put our collaborative minds together, the session becomes truly amazing.

National Photography Month is the perfect time to reflect on the power of a great photo and how it shapes your brand. I am so excited to share 11 ways that you can use your brand photos to show off who you really are!

Small Business Month always gets me a little emotional, in the best way. It’s a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate just how far we’ve come… especially us women wearing all the hats, juggling big dreams, and doing it all with our signature hustle and heart.

This week is all about appreciation, and not just any kind. The kind that runs deep. That shows up through emails, comfort, confidence and beauty – during sessions, referrals, and every hug at the end of a shoot. I’m taking a moment to shine the spotlight on you – my clients – and the behind-the-scenes collaborators who bring each session to life. Because without this community, Krista Mason Photography wouldn’t be what it is today.

To every woman out there building her dream, leading with passion, and proving that anything is possible, you are incredible.
