Brand Portrait Collective

Not because we're against new photos, but because the moment someone says “brand shoot,” most of us think:

• Where am I supposed to find the time?

• If I'm investing all that money, I want to be 100% sure it’s the right thing and the results are worth it.

• And I need a photographer who really gets me - not just someone with a camera.

And then there’s the unspoken checklist:

– Lose a bit of weight

– Buy new outfits

– Hair–makeup–nails

– Behave naturally in front of a stranger

– Pose. Smile. Hope it turns out okay.

Plus, a lot of us have already done the whole “professional photoshoot” once… and never used the photos. Because they didn’t show who we are or how we want to be seen in our marketing.

But I know we all need brand presence that moves our work forward.

When your visuals look like the previous version of you (or nothing like you at all), everything feels heavier:

- Posting

- Pricing

- Launching

- Pitching

- Updating your website

- Simply being visible at all

It’s not a motivation or strategy issue. It’s a mismatch.

Because the real problem isn’t just outdated or amateur visuals - it’s that your photos don’t reflect the level of expertise, depth, and presence you bring to your work.

And what I see again and again is the same tension: wanting to look like an expert without losing the human, emotional, real side.

Hiring a pro with makeup, hair, studio, the whole production… and then not using a single photo because that’s not how you want to show up for your clients.

Or snapping generic selfies and ending up looking like a beginner instead of the industry leader you’re here to be.

Exhausting, right?

That’s usually the moment I show up with my camera - and flip the whole script with my

We meet in a small group (max 5 people) and spend about 2.5 hours walking through beautiful, natural-light locations.

We walk, talk, laugh, share what we’re building - and in between, I capture you in those moments when you’re most magnetic, natural, lively and "lit up".

No stiff posing.

No camera in your face for 90 minutes.

No “stand here and smile.”

Just quick, relaxed moments that feel natural - while the group energy takes all the pressure off.

And no - this isn’t “group photos” like at your bestie’s wedding.

I photograph you - in movement, in conversation, in still moments - with plenty of variation:

Portraits with eye contact: the kind you can use on your website, speaker pages, social media profiles, sales pages, and interviews.

In-action shots: you talking, listening, laughing, explaining - the images that make people feel like they already know you.

Surounded by other people (but you in focus): that the leadership energy per se that instantly adds credibility, authority, and warmth.

You'll walk away with:

20 brand photographs that you love and proud to share.

Not 20 duplicates from slightly different angles, but real variety: movement, eye contact, expression, leadership, stillness, connection.

Genuine business connections

You’ll meet people who're living the similar passion and have conversations that spark ideas, collaborations, and referrals.

A visibility + energy boost

My clients always tell me they feel different afterwards - more grounded in how you’re seen, more ready to show up, more confident about being visible.

Content you’ll use right away

No waiting months, no “someday I’ll update my site.” These are the kind of photos that make you want to post, pitch, launch, and be seen. And yes - we brainstorm plenty of content ideas too.

+ Lifetime knowledge about what to do with your…

hands,

legs,

head etc...

- to look natural and WOW in every shot for the rest of your life.

Is it a deal?

You want to:

show up as the face of your brand — without oversharing your private life
stop delaying launches or posts just because “nothing feels right to use”
be seen at the level of expertise you’ve grown into
have photos and visuals that quietly build trust while you live your life
feel both human and strategic in how you show up - without choosing one over the other
share content without second-guessing every image, angle, or impression
attract clients who already trust your work (so raising your rates feels natural)

I’m Maryia Ramanava - a brand photographer and creator of the No Makeup Marketing System (aka how to grow a business while raising three kids and still have a life).

I’m all about simple, human-first marketing - the kind where you show up as yourself and attract the clients who value what you do.

And I’m convinced brand photos are one of the fastest, most joyful ways to get seen, build trust, and book the right people - not because they’re pretty, but because the right images let you show up with confidence, instantly build connection to your audience and be seen for the expert you are.

I see it every day - with the brilliant, purpose-driven entrepreneurs I work with across Switzerland (and beyond).

What should I wear?
Whatever feels like you. Choose 1–2 outfits that reflect your brand and feel great to move and sit in.

✅ You’ll get my “What to Wear” guide before the shoot
✅ Still unsure? Send me outfit options in advance, I’ll help you choose what looks best on camera and on-brand.
What if I’ve never done a brand shoot before?
Perfect. Most of my clients haven’t or didn’t like their last one.

I guide you through natural moments, not stiff poses.
There’s no pressure to perform. Just presence, ease, and guidance every step of the way.
Should I bring anything with me?
Totally up to you. Props can be a great way to add personality and tell your brand story.

Some clients bring a tote bag. Others roll in with a full suitcase.

(Once a nutritionist brought a suitcase full of veggies — why not?)

If you’re not sure what makes sense for your shoot, just ask. I’ll help you figure out what fits your vibe and your visuals.
What if the weather is bad?
If we’re dealing with a storm or heavy rain, we’ll reschedule - no extra charge.

Light rain? Still beautiful. Umbrellas make great props, and I always select locations with covered or indoor options just in case.
What if I can’t make it on the day I booked?
Life happens - I get it. Just let me know as soon as possible, and I’ll move your booking to another available date in the Brand Portrait Collective.

✅ No extra fees
✅ No stress
✅ Just a fresh date that works for both of us
How long until I receive my content?
Most galleries are delivered within 2–3 weeks. If you're on a tight timeline, let me know - we can prioritize what you need first.
Can I use these images for commercial purposes?
You can use them across your business - website, socials, emails, even ads. These are your brand assets.

You just may not:

✖️ Sell them to third parties
✖️ Submit them for competitions
✖️ Use them for external commercial or editorial purposes

Everything else is fair game. This is about building your brand, your way.
