FAQ
What makes Kelly Anderson different than other seattle brand & portrait photographers?
Feeling nervous in front of a camera is completely normal — and it's exactly why Kelly's clients consistently describe their sessions as fun, low-pressure, and surprisingly easy. With a perfect five-star rating across all Google reviews and 20+ years of corporate marketing experience — including brand partnership work at Microsoft with collaborators such as DreamWorks, Pixar, the Jane Goodall Institute, Scholastic, and Henry Winkler — Kelly brings both strategic expertise and genuine warmth to every session. She serves as your creative director, your hype woman, and your on-site guide from start to finish, so you can walk in and focus entirely on showing up. She handles the rest.
What does a brand or portrait session with kelly anderson cost?
Brand photography sessions start at $1,950 and portrait sessions start at $1,100 — both designed as fully personalized, on-location experiences built around your specific goals. Mini session events for portrait clients are offered one to two times per year at a lower investment; subscribe to Kelly's newsletter to stay informed of upcoming dates.
Professional photography is one of the highest-return investments you can make in how you show up — research shows people form a first impression in just 50 milliseconds, entirely from visuals, before reading a single word. A well-planned session with Kelly delivers images that build instant trust, reflect exactly who you are right now, and give you content and memories you'll use for years.
What should I wear to a brand or portrait photo shoot?
Wear what makes you feel like the most confident, polished version of yourself — in solid colors or simple patterns that complement your skin tone and align with your brand palette, and clothes that fit well right now, today. Plan for 2–3 outfit changes: the variety gives your gallery the range you need to show up differently across your website, social media, and press without every image looking like it came from the same afternoon. Avoid busy prints, large logos, and anything uncomfortable — it shows on your face. Once you book, you'll receive Kelly's detailed style and prep guide, and you're welcome to send mirror selfies for personalized feedback before your shoot day so you arrive feeling ready and confident. Still unsure? Bring three options you love and Kelly will help you choose on the day.
