Author & Coach Thekla Richter | Small Business Branding & Visuals Photography in Seattle, WA

Thekla Richter’s small business branding photography session was so much fun! The weather cooperated perfectly, which is rare for Seattle in November: a beautiful sunny day with air crisp enough to keep us from getting sweaty.

Thekla (pronounced Tech-luh — I was dying to know, too) writes middle-grade fantasy books (ask her about the space fairies!) with amazing girl protagonists who help children connect to feelings of empowerment, hope, joy, and freedom.

She also runs a life coaching business, which centers around playful productivity coaching for creative people. You can find more on all her work at http://www.theklarichter.com.

Our goal with Thekla’s session was to not only capture some specific images for various parts of her website, but to get lots of great general-use images for social media, profile pictures and other uses that might pop up (oh, say, author images for book jackets).
