"Bring your personality out and inject it into your products to make them more personal."

This week, Vanessa and Jenni interview Jonna Michelle, a personal brand photography expert, and an avid proponent of anti-corporate branding! In her own words:
"I’m here to shine a light on the rebellious small business owners, creatives, activists, and self-led entrepreneurs who are making a BIG impact by carving their own path. With me you’ll step out of the corporate mold and into a unique photography experience custom tailored to your needs.
Making photos is about so much more than creating pretty pictures. It’s about building trust, seeing people, and sharing their goodness with the world. That's why I view every photo session as a partnership. With me, lines of communication will always remain open to ensure that, together, we make the photos of your dreams!" - Jonna
