BRANDING SESSIONS

Images that reflect your story, your values, your presence.

Branding Portraits are for women who want authentic, professional images for their business or personal brand, without the stiff, posed feeling of traditional headshots. These sessions are ideal for entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals who want their personality, confidence, and values to shine through.


These portraits are more than photos, they are tools to connect, inspire, and confidently represent your brand while keeping the woman behind the business front and center.

  • “I’ve had two wonderful photography sessions with Catarina — each one unique — and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From our very first connection to the sessions themselves and finally receiving my photos, everything was seamless and effortless. As someone who isn’t naturally comfortable in front of a camera, I was delighted with how relaxed and natural the photos turned out. Catarina’s documentary-style approach really captured me as I am, which I absolutely love. I’ll definitely be returning to Catarina for updated photos for my website!”

    Lis Bauer, Therapist

  • “My instant feeling after my session with Catarina was “I should do this every year”. I love her vision. It’s soft, sensual, real and accessible. I hired Catarina to take images for my business; website and Instagram and they’re perfect. If you are in Sussex or Kent and looking for a photographer who is intuitive, sensitive, unobtrusive and so thoughtful ask Catarina. Despite asking Catarina for a business shoot, I am also an independent midwife and recommend Catarina to all my clients for birth and newborn/family shoots. She is so adaptable. I will be back for more images. Thank you!”

    Rachel Mepham - Independent Midwife

  • “I loved working with Catarina on photos for my therapy practice website and profile. The whole experience from start to finish was really positive, fun and enjoyable and i'm someone who really doesn't find it easy to have my photo taken! I appreciated Catarina's creativity and natural style. I think she's got a real talent for listening to what's needed and what's available in the moment to capture some beautiful images which convey what can't be put into words."

    The exact location(s) will be planned together either by email or during your prep call. We’ll consider the style of images you want, the message you want them to convey, and what feels comfortable and authentic for you. This ensures the session feels relaxed, personal, and fully tailored to you.

  • Each session is edited with care and intention. My approach responds to what the session calls for rather than following a fixed formula. You can explore my portfolio to get a sense of my visual language and approach.
