HIYA ICON Personal Branding Portraits

Step into your most iconic era yet

If your most confident, brilliant, high-vibe self was made visible…
She’d radiate authenticity, joy, and undeniable presence, no filters needed.

Enter HIYA ICON

You already are the face of your brand. Now, let your photos affirm that claim, visually and emotionally.

HIYA ICON is a bold, joyful portrait experience that brings your personality, power, and presence into frames so iconic they’ll feel like a career milestone. Because founder branding shouldn’t just look professional, it should feel like levelling up.

Think editorial-calibre visuals. Tailored entirely around you and your personal vibe. With art direction and styling that captures who you are becoming right now, not who you used to be.

01 / WHY THIS IS FOR YOU

If you’re a founder, creative, or visionary ready to show up not just polished, but powerful and in your true colours, this is for you.

Whether you’re switching industries, launching big, or just tired of headshots that feel stiff or beige, HIYA ICON meets you where you are. It’ll reveal the confetti-filled fun that’s bubbling inside of you, and uplifts your presence into something memorable, and very, very you.

Claiming icon status

Because we’re not just taking photos. This is about becoming a visual signature. It’s less about looking pretty, and more about owning your own iconic vibe, frame after frame, set after fabulous set.

02 / WHAT YOU GET

VIBE CHECK

Your starting point: a colourful, messy, insightful questionnaire to help excavate your story, your personality, and your brand energy. This is where we uncover the raw materials that make up your vibe.

CREATIVE DIRECTION & PREP SESSION

With your Vibe Check complete, we’ll meet on a video call for a chat through your brand story, your energy, your dream audience. We’ll design a portrait concept that’s intentional, personal, and tailored to look like your world.

SHOOT PLAN

I’ll put together a shoot plan that includes 3-4 different themes, depending on how many we can get through in one shoot day. Let me be clear, we’re not creating just ‘headshots’. I treat these shoots like I would my most creative projects. Because I believe you should get to shine just as brightly as models do.

CREATIVE PORTRAIT SHOOT

Professional lighting, direction, and styling that bring your bespoke concept to life. Expect variety, texture, and confidence in every frame.

BECOME ICONIC

Receive 30+ professionally edited images, full of creativity and the essence of you. Ready to use across your website, socials, decks, media assets, and more. Fully licensed for your use in perpetuity.

HIYA VIBES LIBRARY

Included in your HIYA ICON experience is the full HIYA VIBES Personal Branding Libaries offering. As well as your portraits, you’ll receive a library of 30 still-life images to use across your online presence. Everything working together seamlessly because the whole collection is borne out of your individual vibe and crafted especially for you.

03 / INVESTMENT

05 / WHY ME

Hiya, I’m Marianne. I’ve spent my career bringing bold, beautiful, and unforgettable visuals to life. As an art director, photographer, and stylist, I’ve worked with brands to craft striking imagery that captures attention and tells a story. But my passion goes beyond just aesthetics; I believe in the power of visual identity to shape how we’re seen, remembered, and valued.

Over the years, I’ve developed a unique expertise at the intersection of colour, composition, branding, and personal style. I know how to create a world around a product, an idea, or a person, turning a vision into something tangible, magnetic, and full of personality. Whether it’s a carefully styled product shot, a wardrobe that radiates confidence, or a library of images that feel exactly like you, I know how to make visuals work for you.

With a background in photography, graphic design, creative strategy, and styling, I bring a full-spectrum approach to personal brand visuals. I don’t just make things look good, I make them feel right, so your audience connects with you in an instant.
