Kaysha van der Heyden
City:
Irvine, CA
Loves working with:
I love working with women small business owners, especially service providers (think coaches, creatives, consultants) who are ready to confidently show up as their authentic selves online. My clients value realness, connection, and that feeling of finally being seen.
Photoshoot locations:
Client's homes or offices across Orange County and Los Angeles, trendy coffee shops, coworking spaces, free outdoor locations like parks and urban downtowns, plus Peerspace rentals of studios or homes for a polished indoor look.
Photography style / aesthetic:
Supportive, empowering, and natural. I’m obsessed with capturing personality-packed images that feel elevated but not stuffy. Think clean, bright, with a touch of lifestyle/editorial vibes — polished enough for a website, relaxed enough for a social feed.

Vibe check:
Like your hype woman and creative director had a baby: chill, encouraging, and laser-focused on making you look and feel amazing.
Fun fact / hidden talent:
I spent 100 days rewiring my brain to become a morning person, which was no easy feat for a lifelong night owl! Now I start my weekdays at 5:30am.

Renee Bowen
City:
Los Angeles, CA
Loves working with:
I absolutely love working with creative, driven women who are building a brand that’s as bold and magnetic as they are. My clients are usually small business owners—coaches, content creators, wellness pros, authors, and service-based entrepreneurs—who are finally ready to stop playing small and start showing up as the face of their brand.
They’re not just looking for pretty photos. They want strategy, intention, and visuals that tell a story—the right story. The one that feels aligned with where they’re headed, not just where they’ve been.
Photoshoot locations:
My studio, rented spaces, clients' homes or offices, the beach, Airbnbs - anywhere that makes sense for their specific vision.
Photography style / aesthetic:
My photography style is elevated, intentional, and soul-led—with a mix of editorial polish and effortless, natural energy. I blend clean, modern composition with emotion and storytelling, so every image feels like you, fully expressed. I think my work has more of a film-based vibey aesthetic rather that light and airy.
Languages spoken:
English
Vibe check:
Equal parts hype woman, creative director, and calm-in-the-chaos—I’ll make you feel confident, seen, and a little bit like a badass.
Fun fact / hidden talent:
I can spot someone’s limiting belief in under 10 seconds and pick the perfect playlist to help them shake it off.
