A Fast, Beautiful Refresh for Your Personal Brand
Mini-Brand Photoshoot Event
If your photos no longer look like you or the business you’re building, it’s time for a refresh that doesn’t take months to plan or thousands more to book.
Mini Brand Day is a one-day event in a beautifully styled Carlsbad location, designed for women who want high-end brand photos without the full custom shoot commitment. You reserve your spot, show up with 2–3 outfits, and receive a gallery of images you can start using immediately.
Spots are limited and these days sell out quickly. When the date is gone, it’s gone.

Step Into a Stylish Space for Your Personal Brand Photos
For each Mini Brand Day, I reserve a luxurious, light-filled location in North County Coastal San Diego chosen specifically because it:
Has a neutral, elevated palette that flatters every brand aesthetic
Includes multiple backdrops in one place: a curated kitchen, cozy living room, and workspace environment
Feels like the kind of space your clients imagine you working and living in
You don’t have to hunt for locations, move furniture, or style a set. It’s all done for you. You simply step into a space that was designed to make your brand look polished, modern, and magnetic.
How Do I Know This Photoshoot Event Is For Me?
This experience is ideal if you:
Need fresh, beautiful photos of yourself for your website, social media, or speaking opportunities
Aren’t ready (or don’t need) a full custom, all-day photoshoot
Want a quick, low-stress way to refresh your visuals after a rebrand, new hair, or new season in your business
Are ready to be seen and want your photos to start attracting right-fit clients on repeat
You get the benefit of my full brand-photography approach in a focused, 30-minute session.

“I had just started my business and needed photos....
I didn’t know what kind of branding photos I wanted. Marcy made great suggestions regarding photos I would need, what to wear, and where to do our photoshoot. Marcy coached me on how to pose for a variety of photos, it was like having a girlfriend or sister by your side. Marcy makes you feel like a star. If you want beautiful, authentic photos, I recommend you work with Marcy!”

“Marcy is such a talented photographer!
I hired Marcy to update my headshots for my lending business. Being in real estate, it is very hard to differentiate yourself… having a unique brand is the key. As Marcy says, it’s not any photo, it’s the PERFECT photo, and she knocked mine out of the park. My photos are unique, creative, colorful, and perfectly executed! Thank you Marcy.”

“Marcy is absolutely amazing!
I needed professional pictures taken and edited in a very short time frame. The day of my photos was so much fun. Marcy, helped me feel confident, beautiful, and put me at ease. Her talent is obvious, just take a look at her work, but what makes Marcy so special is her personality! She is warm, bubbly, and authentic. I feel so lucky to have met Marcy, and I will use her for all my future photography needs!”

"If you’re looking for some great portraits that truly capture your essence, look no further.
Marcy is such a gem with a passion that just oozes out while she works. I felt so comfortable with her and was able to just let my heart shine.
Your Investment
For many of my clients, a single Mini Brand Day has supported months of content and helped them step into higher pricing, more speaking opportunities, and a more confident online presence.
Mini Brand Days happen only a few times a year and they sell out quickly. Once a date is full, it’s gone.
If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to update your photos, this is your sign.
Book your Mini Brand Photoshoot session today and reserve your spot before it’s gone.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
This is typically the first question people ask before their photoshoot. In your 30 minute time slot, you will have time to do 2-3 outfits. I suggest planning outfits that are easy and quick to change (for example, wear the same pants and change your top)
Once you book a time slot, you’ll receive detailed instructions and suggestions for what to wear. AND you’ll have a chance to book a one-on-one Zoom planning session with Marcy to talk about what to wear.
-
Since this is a short session, this time slot is dedicated for your photos only. If you want to include a partner, I suggest booking 2 back-to-back time slots which will allow for solo shots and team photos.
BONUS idea! Book a back-to-back shoot with a friend, and pose as each other’s clients
-
You can book once you reserve your photo time slot. Marcy will email you with more details.
Makeup and hair will be done on location before your photoshoot. I’ve reserved an incredible hair and makeup artist for this day, you will not be disappointed by saying yes to the glam. Hair and makeup is offered at a discounted rate of $275, for mini brand day participants.
Plan on arriving 90 minutes before your photo time slot, if you’re reserving a hair and makeup appointment.
-
Yes! Although you don’t NEED to bring anything, as this location is fully decorated and stocked with decor, making it the perfect backdrop for your brand photos. Feel free to bring personal items to make your photos custom to you. I’ll offer more suggestions once you book your session time slot.
Please note, the venue doesn’t allow candles or glitter confetti.
-
Yes! All the photos I send you will be professional retouched. This means you will get magazine-quality photos to use in your marketing
-
After your photoshoot you will receive a digital album with all the best photos from your session (at least 30 photos, often much more)
THESE ARE YOURS TO KEEP!
These retouched photos will be sent to you as high resolution digital files, with full permission rights.
