Brand Story: Maryam

Washington, DC

It’s always a privilege when a client returns for another shoot.

Meet Maryam, a therapist here in the DMV who is so full of life and love.

When I first worked with Maryam, she was just beginning to work with another practice, and simply needed some fresh headshots for her profile pages. Now, Maryam was launching her own private practice (wahoo!), and required photos for her new website.
