Welcome to the blog, sort of like a digital garden where dreams are planted and grow wild! My name is Quianna and my family calls me “Qui” like key! I’m a branding photographer based in Scottsdale and the Bay Area.
I love adventures and creating memories even more than I love photographing them—and I LOVE taking photos! In addition to capturing weddings, family milestones, and the best memories I also offer business tools, motivation and inspiration to help creatives turn their passions into their profession. We only get this one life, why not live our days doing what we love?
Professional Headshots in Scottsdale: Make Your First Impression Count Online + In Real Life
You’re showing up in your business every day, pouring your heart into your work, making an impact, and creating real results for your clients. But does your headshot match the energy people experience when they meet you in person?
If you’re a small business owner, coach, healer, real estate agent, or service provider here in Scottsdale (or anywhere in the Valley!), your online presence should reflect your personality, your passion, and your professionalism.
You are the expert, we need to prove it!
Let’s talk about how professional headshots can do exactly that—and why it might be time for an upgrade.
Your Headshot Is Your Online Handshake
Before someone meets you, hops on a discovery call, or even follows you back on Instagram… they’re Googling, clicking, scrolling—and forming instant opinions based on your photo.
That little square image? It’s saying way more than you think.
It’s telling potential clients:
Are you professional, but also approachable?
What kind of energy do you bring?
Do you take your business and your services or offers seriously?
Can you be trusted with not just the investment of money, but time and transformations?
Does your current headshot reflect who you are TODAY? If not, you’re long overdue for a refresh.
When It’s Time to Update Your Headshots
Here are a few signs it’s time to schedule a new headshot session:
You’ve changed your hair, style, or vibe
You’ve rebranded or launched a new offer
Your current headshots are more than 1–2 years old
You’ve experienced a recent pivot and need fresh updates
You’ve grown personally and professionally—and want to reflect that!
Whether you’re building a brand, climbing in your career, or showing up online for the first time, professional headshots should match your momentum.
The Scottsdale Headshot Experience with Quianna Marie
As a local photographer here in Scottsdale, Arizona, I specialize in headshots and personal branding photography that feels like you—not stiff or overly corporate. AI photos are looking legit, but still cartoony!
We’ll choose a location that fits your vibe—whether that’s a modern studio, a cozy coffee shop in Mesa, or a natural light haven in Gilbert—and create a fun, relaxed shoot that captures your true essence.
When we collaborate for your new headshots + branding updates you can look forward to:
Confidence without the awkwardness
Crisp, clean photos for your website and social media
Personality-packed content you’ll actually want to share
My goal is to help make your new headshots + branding photos FEEL like you!
Not Just Another Pretty Picture
Sure, your headshot should be flattering—but it should also feel powerful. Because when your online presence matches your in-person magic, you’re building trust before the first conversation even happens.
Your headshot should say: “I know what I’m doing. Let’s work together.” Not: “I hope you recognize me from my high school senior pics!”
Brand photography that helps you feel seen, supported, and proud of how you show up online. can't wait to connect with you and bring your visions to life!
You can expect to hear back from me within 24 hours on weekdays! Weekends are reserved for shooting weddings, but I'll be back in a jif to reply to your message!
