Client Showcase: Capturing Tanya Quintieri at Hortikult & Mrs.Divi
Meet Tanya Quintiery, an inspiring entrepreneur who’s as passionate about plants as she is about empowering others.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Tanya on a personal branding photoshoot, and I’m excited to share her story and some of the stunning images we created together.
Who Is Tanya Quintiery?
Tanya is a force of nature; a dynamic entrepreneur who is making waves in the world of plant collecting and web design. Tanya is the founder of Hortikult, a startup offering digital solutions for plant enthusiasts, and Mrs. Divi, where she creates beautiful, functional websites.
During our conversations, Tanya shared how her love for plants started as a personal escape during the lockdowns. Her passion then growing into a mission to make plant hobbies more sustainable. Her commitment to community and authenticity shines through her work.
What really stands out about Tanya is her no-nonsense attitude and her deep commitment to community, authenticity, and helping others achieve their goals.
Bringing Tanya’s Brand to Life Through Photography
When Tanya reached out for a personal branding session, she had a clear vision in mind. It had been ten years since her last professional photoshoot, and she wanted images that truly represented who she is today – someone who has aged gracefully and continues to thrive in an ever-changing world.
Tanya’s brand is all about authenticity, trust, and community. During our shoot, she wanted to capture the essence of her brand – showing her confidence, no-nonsense attitude, and deep passion for helping others grow. We chose a light, airy versatile studio as our backdrops, perfectly aligning with her vision. The green, black, and white colour palette reflected the natural, clean vibe of Hortikult. The goal was to create lifestyle photos, headshots, and storytelling images that Tanya could use across her website, social media, and marketing materials.
The Shoot: Capturing Tanya’s Essence
What stood out most during our session was how Tanya’s personality came through in every shot. From powerful headshots (that really captured her confidence and no BS attitude) to candid moments surrounded by greenery, the photos truly reflect who she is – a mentor, a cheerleader, and a driven entrepreneur, one that’s nurturing and deeply committed to helping others grow.
One of my favourite moments was when we were shooting a repotting of one of her plants (which she very kindly gave to me afterwards – ps it’s rare but don’t ask what the name is 😉 ). Tanya was completely in her element, it was clear that this wasn’t just a business for her – plants are a part of who she is.
Why Personal Branding Matters
Tanya’s story is a great reminder of the importance of personal branding. It’s not just about looking good; it’s about showing the world who you are and what you stand for.
In today’s world, people want to connect with the person behind the brand. They want to see who you are, what you stand for, and why you do what you do.
Final Thoughts
Working with Tanya was not only an utter pleasure and fun (seriously we both laughed a lot together) but also a reminder of how impactful personal branding can be. It’s not just about looking good. It’s about showing the world who you really are and what you have to offer. For Tanya, that means empowering others through her knowledge and passion, and I think we captured that beautifully.
If you’re an entrepreneur looking to elevate your brand, I’d love to help you tell your story through photography. Whether you’re like Tanya, forging your own path, or you’re just starting out, personal branding photos can make a world of difference.
