Location
Farmingdale, New York
The other day I saw something that stopped me mid-scroll. A beekeeper. A florist. Not posing, not performing—just being. One in their garden, sleeves rolled up. The other, gently handling a hive like it was second nature. And every photo felt like a new chapter in their story. I didn’t want it to end.
It reminded me of what’s missing in so many personal branding shoots today.
We’re bombarded with the same flat-lay desks, the same crossed-arm smiles behind a MacBook, the same neutral backdrops and “boss babe” poses. But what makes someone unforgettable isn’t how perfectly they pose—it’s how clearly we can feel their passion, their process, and their presence.
Your brand isn’t just about your face. It’s about your energy. Your environment. The thing you do that no one else can do quite like you.
Whether you’re a therapist who journals between sessions, a chef who dances while chopping, a designer who sketches by hand—that’s what your audience wants to see. That’s your superpower at work. And that’s what makes you original.
When you show that side of yourself, people don’t just remember you. They root for you.
