A Pillar of Strength: Branding Session with Keona Kelly

Recently, I had the pleasure of capturing branding photography and headshots for the lovely Keona Kelly, founder of Pillar of Strength Counseling, based right here in Champaign, IL.

Keona is a licensed therapist and an inspiring woman with a heart for helping others heal, and it was such an honor to photograph her in her cozy, welcoming office space.

Our branding session included a mix of professional headshots, lifestyle imagery, and interior shots that reflected the essence of her practice. From her warm and comfortable counseling room to her elegant desk setup, every corner of Keona’s office told a piece of her story. We also captured her working at her computer, relaxing on the couch where she holds space for her clients, and showcasing her branded materials like business cards.

Keona wanted images that felt authentic, confident, and approachable—and I think we nailed it. As a photographer who specializes in branding photography in Champaign-Urbana and the surrounding areas, my goal is always to help professionals feel seen, empowered, and proud of the business they’ve built.

If you're a therapist, entrepreneur, or small business owner looking for Champaign headshots or branding photography, I’d love to help you create visuals that reflect who you are and what you do. Whether it’s capturing your office, your process, or simply you, let's tell your story in a way that’s true to your brand.

Thank you, Keona, for trusting me with your brand imagery. Your light shines so brightly, and your clients are lucky to have you!
