I had the pleasure of working with Val Ries of Executive Muse last year. Val reached out to me because she was having a total rebrand done. While planning for her photoshoot, she was also working with a designer to create a new logo and website. On top of that, she authored and published a book – Chief Inspiration Officer! She is indeed a woman of many talents, and it was such a joy to work with her.
Val is a corporate leadership trainer and coach. We wanted to portray warmth, kindness, and approachability in her brand photos, and I think we nailed it! Location wise, we chose her home office, living room, and a nice outdoor street. We chose a mix of business casual and casual wardrobe looks.
Below, you can see screenshots of Val’s new website. You can also find her photos across her Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook pages.
