Rooted in Home: Kristie’s Real Estate Brand Photography Session

There’s something powerful about watching a woman step into her brand with clarity—not because she’s reinventing herself, but because she’s finally showing the world what’s been there all along.

That’s what happened during Kristie Millard’s brand photography session.

Kristie is a Lincoln-based real estate agent, but the word agent barely scratches the surface. She’s a mom. A guide. A steady hand during seasons of transition. Her work is rooted in helping families find more than just a house—it’s about helping them find home.

When she reached out, she wasn’t just updating her headshots. She was reintroducing her business in a way that felt more aligned, more elevated, and more her.

And she knew it wasn’t just about getting pretty pictures. It was about being seen.

A Brand That Feels Like Real Life

Kristie’s brand is grounded in connection and trust, shaped by her own experience as a mother. She doesn’t show up for her clients with perfect hair and a polished sales pitch—she shows up in the middle of real life. The same way her clients do.

She wanted photos that reflected that:

• the fullness of motherhood

• the beauty of intentional homes

• the realness of life lived in-between

  
  

So that’s exactly what we captured.

She brought her Wax Buffalo candle—a small but meaningful local detail that speaks volumes about how she runs her business. We photographed her in spaces that felt warm and lived-in, just like the homes she helps her clients imagine themselves in.

Yes, this was a real estate brand session. But more than that, it was a visual reflection of someone who is deeply rooted in her values, her community, and her purpose.

Elevated. Evolving. Still Real.

Kristie’s new website reflects the evolution of her business—modern, intentional, and infused with heart. She shared her plan to refresh her brand photos a few times a year so her visuals stay connected to where her business actually is, not where she feels pressured to make it look like she is.

Smart? Absolutely. Because when your business is rooted in relationships, staying current isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about authenticity.

These images will show up across her social media, signage, listing packets, and marketing materials. But more importantly, they’ll help her audience feel what it’s like to work with her.

Because brand photography isn’t just about what you do, it’s about showing why it matters.

Is It Time for Your Brand to Feel Like You Again?

If you’re in a season of re-alignment, reintroduction, or renewal—let’s create visuals that meet you there.

I work with small business owners, creatives, and service providers who are tired of hiding behind outdated visuals or waiting for the perfect moment to show up.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to start.

Let’s create brand photos that reflect where you are now—and help your audience feel it, too.
