You are Your Brand | Fancy Boudoir Jackson, TN

Meet Dorothy, owner of Photography by Patterson serving Maryland, District of Columbia and Northern Virginia area. She specializes in boudoir and Maternity portraits because she “loves helping women feel and look their best.” For the past few months Dorothy and I have worked together to narrow the focus and direction of her business. We wrapped up the last portion of her mentorship with her own personal branding session. During our time together she once express that she wanted to work with the women who are “forgotten about”. As she stepped in front of my camera, I saw the women she had been describing to me for the past few months.

I stopped mid shoot and said,

“You are your brand!”

She stepped in front of my camera that day with the same demeanor she described her ideal client to have, class and sophistication. When I showed her a few sneak peeks at the end of the session, she responded in tears saying “at 54, I’ve still got it.” I looked at her wanting to be the woman I saw! A woman who pays attention to detail and is private in her most intimate thoughts. A woman who can own her emotions and be a boss when life requires her to keep going. A woman who loves herself and desires feminine freedom. A women who knows what she wants, and go gets it!

Now she can go out and reach those she identifies with the most.

That makes me proud.
