My recent photoshoot with Ainka Jess was an absolute Hoop dream! She is the founder and driving force behind She's4Sports, an organization championing women and girls in sports. Ainka's previous headshot on her website was lovely. I liked it because it showed her as friendly and approachable. But Ainka is entering her CEO era with new opportunities, broader reach, and more significant impact, and we wanted to capture images that show she's taking She's4Sports to the next level but still fun, sporty and fashion-forward! If you’re ready to refresh your tired website images with new ..read more

Shooting this brand session was almost as good as her cupcakes ..read more
