Brand photography in asheville
Giving women the confidence to quit playing small and start showing up BIG
I help women get in front of the camera, create galleries that do actual work, build connections (and money), while having a damn good time.
You’re a badass for starting a business.
Buuuuut are you hiding behind your brand? It can feel exhausting and vulnerable to add your face to your marketing: but showing up as the human behind the brand does wonders for the way you connect with others.
You had the audacity to turn your idea into a reality.
Let’s make sure the world knows your story.
Let’s address those potential fears, shall we, friend?
You might be thinking:
“Becky, I'm nervous and not comfortable in front of the camera.”
“What I do is boring…but I don’t want boring photos. How can we make something unique?”
“I know I need to be in my branding photos but I feel so overwhelmed at the thought of it”
"I'm not confident in my body right now but know branding images would be good for my business."
And here’s how I’d respond:
“I get to know you and will guide you every step. Going from uncomfortable to stunning images is what I do.”
“You are a unique human and we talk through how to visually represent the most interesting parts of you.”
“It’s my job and my joy to make this as fun, organized and aligned as possible! We spend a LOT of time planning!”
“Confidence is built by doing the thing scared. I help you show up as the badass you are!”
A Photography Experience Like No Other
A client told me that she had experienced a number of photo shoots but her personal branding photoshoot with me was different. She loved the strategy I put into co creating images that had places to go and jobs to do- a gallery that truly felt aligned with her brand.
Stunning photography is always the bottom line, but perhaps, equally important, you gain a little more confidence to share your story by being a unique human.
If you want a photographer who’s both skilled at pretty photos and totally gets who you are, I’m the one. You’re gonna look good, feel good along the way and get in front of clients that will learn to trust and like you for being YOU. No need to pretend to be anything else.
We’ve got a problem, ladies!
I remember the moment I knew we needed Arise Images. I stood in a room with 15 inspiring women business owners and NO ONE wanted me to photograph THEM. They pushed their pretty products and services in front of the camera while I stood awestruck by the obvious- a gap that prevents customers from seeing the human behind the brand.
So I created a business that made it easier for women to start taking up more space by getting in front of the camera.
Hello, I’m Becky and “Your photographer really understood the assignment” is a compliment I receive over and over as the Instagram comments come after my clients put up their fresh branding images. Let’s get your story out there for the world to see.
Cheers, you badasses!

When I started my business last year, I really underestimated the need for good photos. I've had professional headshots taken before, and they've always been generic, boring, or just plain terrible. And then I met Becky. The first time I met her, we were at a women's networking group, and she talked about her necklace that said "be kind...of a badass." And I thought, this is my kind of woman. I told her I wanted photos but didn't have a clue what I wanted, and she said, I got you. Her photos blew me away!!! They are beyond amazing, and so so so many people have commented on what an upgrade they are.

"I was really worried about how I would look since I've let my hair go grey & I have more wrinkles since my last photo shoot 8 years ago, but Becky helped me to feel and look great and to really own my wisdom years! She's the consummate professional - smart, curious, insightful, creative - and she's an excellent communicator. Highly, highly recommend! Thanks, Becky, for helping me to step into my next chapter with confidence!"

"Working with Becky from Arise Images was such a dream! She captured our brand, but also took some of the most beautiful product photos. I would say this photos are the most scroll stopping photos you could imagine. Becky was professional, detailed and worked so hard to prepare us for the shoot. She answered questions along the way and got the photo edited and back to us very promptly( which was so great because we just couldn't wait to see the results!!!) She is a leader in capturing in a way that feels authentic to herself and each person she works with. I would recommend her 1000% to anyone looking for a like minded female entrepreneur to help with branding."

"Becky was incredible to work with. I recently did a mini branding shoot with her and can say without reservations that I would book her for a full shoot as soon as I’m able to. Becky is amazing at what she does, not only with the quality of photos she produces, but also the thoughtfulness with which she approaches each project. Prior to the shoot, I was able to hop on a call with Becky and discuss props, wardrobe, messages that I want to convey with the imagery, and the overall story of my brand today and where I want it to go."

"Arise shot BTS (behind the scenes) photos for my latest feature film project. Becky was amazing - super kind, quick to integrate into set culture, and somehow invisible during the times we were all super focused. We got amazing images and I'm so grateful for her work!"
