Welcome to the MacMo Photo & Co. blog, a space created to share the stories, strategy, and intention behind the imagery. This is where we highlight real sessions, brand launches, creative projects, and the people who trust us to capture meaningful seasons of their lives and businesses.
Launching a coaching business is not just about credentials or programs. It is about presence. It is about the visuals you use to connect before anyone ever presses send, scrolls forward, or picks up the phone. When Amy Barilla came to MacMo Photo & Co. for her branding photography session, she showed up not just as a business owner, but as a woman ready to embody her mission with clarity, confidence, and vision.
Amy is the founder of Vitality + Vision, a coaching space built to help women unlock clarity, energy, and transformative growth as they step beyond old patterns and tap into their fullest potential. Through individual and group coaching, she guides women including executives, entrepreneurs, mothers, and leaders toward the harmony, courage, and purpose they know they are meant to live into.
As Amy prepares to support women with transformational coaching rooted in resilience and intentional change, her visual identity needed to align with her message. Not just beautiful photos, but imagery that communicates trust, authority, and lasting presence before anyone even reads her about page or books an insight session.
Many business owners make the mistake of thinking branding photography is a one time aesthetic task. The kind you check off a list and never think about again. But the truth is that your imagery is an ecosystem, not a snapshot.
Branding photography should:
Reflect who you are today, not who you were
Support multiple platforms with cohesive presence
Communicate clarity before clients read your messaging
Build trust before your offer is ever seen
Adapt as your business evolves
For Amy, whose work is grounded in transformation, balance, and empowerment, every image needed to convey both strength and softness, leadership and presence. This clarity matters for her coaching audience, who are often seeking not just expertise, but relatable authority.
During her Brand Edit session, we focused on creating a visual narrative that supports multiple facets of her business.
Website imagery that resonates with her coaching philosophy
Marketing visuals for launches, landing pages, and lead magnets
Content assets that align with workshops, retreats, and community initiatives
This session was not about trend chasing or one off content. It was about building a visual foundation. A set of brand tools that works now and continues to evolve with the business.
That is the difference between sporadic photography and a branding photography retainer. A retainer future proofs your visual identity so you never run out of intentional, high quality imagery that supports your business goals.
When your visuals are planned and executed with intention, they become an extension of your brand vocabulary. A way for your audience to feel who you are before they ever book. This is especially true for women led businesses like Vitality + Vision, where leadership and transformation are core to the brand experience.
Branding photography retainers help you:
Maintain visual consistency across your website, socials, and marketing
Plan sessions around business goals and strategic milestones
Reduce content scrambling and last minute shoots
Support launches, campaigns, and seasonal initiatives
Build trust through visual continuity
This is the foundation of The Brand Edit, our signature branding photography experience designed for businesses that think long term, not short term.
Amy’s session created imagery that reflects the depth of her coaching approach. Strength with softness. Clarity with courage. A presence that feels real, not manufactured.
Her visuals now support:
Coaching programs and workshops
Website storytelling
Social content with purpose
Audience connection that feels genuine
These are not just photos. They are strategic tools for visibility and growth.
If you are a business owner who is ready to elevate your visual presence and invest in imagery that works for your business and not just your feed, The Brand Edit was created for you.
Branding photography retainers are now booking.
