Hana – Palo Alto Personal Branding Session

< back to blog home

I get to work with seriously awesome ladies out there, and Hana is no exception! As an Emmy-nominated producer and director, she was looking for less-than-corporate headshots. We spent the afternoon hanging out around downtown Palo Alto, one of the most versatile places to shoot in Silicon Valley. We had fun, laughed a lot, and got stuff DONE!

In as little as two hours, we shot 8 total looks with about two different backdrops per look. We like efficiency, people 😉 Hana left her session with enough imagery to plan website and social media content for months. It was truly a joy working with her, and I’m so excited to share her images on the blog today!
