Hi, I’m Brooke.
Creating the images that define your story.
I’ve spent more than 20 years behind the camera creating images that define how people see themselves—and how the world sees them. As Founder of Studio B Portraits, I lead a luxury, full-service photography studio in Seattle specializing in personal branding portraits for executives, entrepreneurs, and teams who need to look like they belong in the room before they even walk in.
What I discovered is that the camera isn’t just about images, it’s about story. It’s about the connection that turns a photo into something unforgettable. That belief is at the heart of Studio B Portraits and why clients, from C-suite executives to creative entrepreneurs, trust us to create “You On Your Best Day.”

Seattle raised and a Husky for life, I graduated from the University of Washington and moved to Southern California. A cool career in marketing, branding, and celebrity PR led me to meeting my husband and then to my journey as a professional photographer with Ford Models. That fast-tracked into amazing opportunities shooting for Disney, People Magazine, GQ, and Grammy-winning musicians. With our family expanding, we took a leap of faith and moved back to Seattle, giving birth to both our second baby girl and Studio B Portraits in the summer of 2006. Nineteen years, another baby, and two studio moves later, the dream I dared to put into the universe became real. While the work has taken me from magazine covers to high-profile campaigns, the real magic is simpler: helping people see themselves the way the world already does—brilliant, confident, and powerful.
