Developing your Personal Brand and/or Business
When was the last time you had professional headshots or portraits of yourself?
I’ve been preaching to my clients about how important it is to showcase the face of their business yet so many of them don’t have this personal touch. Clients and customers more and more want to learn about the person behind the business, it establishes authenticity, a connection, openness to share yourself and say here I am!
I know for me personally if I am interested in a service but don’t see who I’ll be interacting with then I move on. Images are so important in this day and age and the quality of them reflects how you project and present your brand so ditch those iPhone selfies!
I deliver strong, confident images of yourself or team to showcase your brand or business.

What People Are Saying
“Maegan was warm and friendly from the moment I walked into the studio. She made me feel at ease in front of the camera and let me play around as well as giving direction. She sent me a huge selection of shots to review the next day and was super speedy to edit the ones I loved. Maegan, I look forward to working with you again in the future!”
“I absolutely loved my portrait session with Maegan. Being someone who usually works behind the camera it was a new experience to be in front of it and Maegan made me feel super comfortable and confident. Her calm positive energy made it a really fun session, and I was able to relax and be myself which I think shows in the photos. The photos turned out even better than I could have imagined. Highly recommend to anyone considering head shots ”
“Maegan is an absolutely stunning photographer. This woman has a real talent. Honestly the way she works blows me away at times. Not only is she one of the most talented creatives I have worked with, but she is also a genuinely kind, loving, gentle, passionate human being who cares a lot about her work and her clients. I have worked with Maegan on many different projects. Every time it has been so easy and it just flows. We started out as work associates but very quickly became friends. Maegan is an inspiring creative and I can’t wait to see what else she has in store for us.”
“I had long admired Maegan’s work for her fresh and clean approach. The whole process is quick and effortless, and she manages to capture beautiful moments.”
“I had professional photos done with Maegan to use for PR and social accounts. The photos exceeded my expectations, and I found it hard to choose my faves as there were so many. Originally I kept putting off having photos done due to the fear of not feeling confident in front of the camera, but Maegan’s calm manner instantly put me at ease. It was so much fun! Thanks Maegan, I’ll be back for more!!”
“I did a branding photoshoot on Sunday with photographer Maegan Mcdowell. I was so nervous cus I had no idea what to wear and how to pose but she made me feel so comfortable and gave easy directions. I never thought I could get such incredible images! If anyone needs a photographer, definitely get in touch with her!”
