CLIENT LOVE & KIND WORDS

LinLin - Actress

I liked being guided gently into a version of myself I hadn’t fully seen before. Karri created an atmosphere that was calm, natural, and quietly powerful. There was no pressure to "perform," just space to be present. What I got out of our time together wasn’t just beautiful images, but a deeper connection to how I show up in the world.

Darian - Actress, Singer

Working with Karri was such a positive and empowering experience. From the moment I arrived, she made me feel completely at ease and brought out the best in me with every look. Her direction was clear, supportive, and tailored to highlight my individuality. The prep materials she provided ahead of the session were invaluable—they really helped me understand how to use clothing and style to connect with specific character types and better position myself for the roles I aspire to book. Since our shoot, I’ve booked quite a few jobs using the photos we took together!

Molly - Actress, Singer

I did two actor headshot sessions with Karri and felt like I was in experienced and capable hands throughout both sessions. I am not a camera-shy person, and the fact that Karri knew how to make even the tiniest of adjustments or direction to get that perfect shot, made it an awesome collaboration and is something I really appreciate in a photographer. I loved that we were on the same page the entire time about capturing my brand, what I wanted out of the shots, and what my goals were. My agents love my new headshots and even showed them to other actors as examples of what to aim for. I'm so happy I decided to shoot with Karri and would certainly recommend her!

Tan - Actress

Karri was efficient, friendly, and professional throughout the process. I was given detailed instructions, suggestions, and tips throughout the process and knew what to expect. Karri was responsive and open to every question that I had, and preparing for the shoot was a collaborative effort. I felt comfortable during the shoot and had a good range of looks/expressions to chose from. I would recommend her services to others.

Devon - Actress

I had the absolute pleasure of shooting with Karri for my acting headshots. This was my first real headshot shoot and she made it so easy and fun! She has professional MUAs for hire who kill the makeup for your shoot, so there is not much to worry about. Karri even sends very informed emails with extra resources to make sure you're super prepared. My photos came out absolutely amazing, I really couldn't be happier. I would recommend anyone to Karri over and over again- whether you're first starting out or looking to update your materials!

Jermaine - Actor

Outstanding! The service I received from Karri was impeccable from the first initial call to well after my session. She took the time to really listen to what I wanted to achieve and gave me just that. Karri made sure that i understood her process and what it would take to bring my brand to life. Karri is very knowledgeable and brings to her work expertise and passion that leaves you in awe and amazement with the finished results. Karri Brantley Photography is hands down the best and worth the investment!

Jen - Owner of New Hope Homes

I am starting my own business and wanted a professional photo for my business cards and online presence that captured who I am and what I will be doing. From the minute I walked into the studio to the time I left, I felt like a million bucks! Karri made the photo shoot so enjoyable and relaxed. She has made me so confident to set up my web presence and to have my photo on my business cards. Thanks, Karri, for helping me kick start my new endeavor and understanding what I am trying to share with my potential clients!

Lisa - Actress

Karri was recommended to me by a trusted friend and colleague, and I am so glad I connected with her. Karri's insider experience, keen eye for detail, and genuine human loveliness made the whole process seamless. She thoroughly answered all of my questions while discussing what I was looking for in headshots, made me feel at ease on shoot day, and was a guiding light during photo selection. Karri went above and beyond to tailor the whole experience to my specific needs/desires, and I implicitly trust her expertise—the proof is in the photos! She is an invaluable resource to the Michigan performance community, and I wholeheartedly recommend Karri to anyone looking for the right tools to book the gig!

Kim C. - Actor

Karri is a TOTAL pro, yet so much fun! She will give you direction that will inspire you, not "pose" you (of course, if you need it, she will!). I highly recommend her; been wanting to use her for years (as I've seen fellow actor headshots done by her), and finally had the opportunity three times in the past four years. You will NOT be disappointed!

Dan - Co-Owner of Dan Davis Design Firm in Ferndale, MI

My business partner and I hate having our pictures taken. But we heard great things about Karri. She lived up to and exceeded everything we had heard. She really knows how to get a great picture out of you. It was a great experience!

Kellen - Actress

Karri is super professional and makes you feel so confident and comfortable. She took the time to fix my hair when she saw how it looked on camera which I've never had anyone do on my prior pictures. She's is fantastic when it comes to communication and making sure you have everything you need for your shoot. I enjoyed every minute of my time and I recommend her to every actor out there. She goes above and beyond for you!

Jeff - Actor, VO Actor

Round two with this Awesome photographer. Karri captured my first ever headshots over five years ago so when it came time for an update the choice was very easy. She served as my voice coach when I launched my VO business and her personality, love of what she does transitions right over to her photography work. She makes the photo session simply fun, a blast, no pressure, relaxed and when it's all said and done each photograph is perfect. No added work needed here. When your time is ready for new headshots or branding you for your business I highly recommend you give Karri a call!

Scotty - Actor, Producer

Karri is absolutely amazing! She made me so comfortable and was a delight to work with. Not to mention, my headshots turned out phenomenal. If you're looking for a reliable, fun, and professional person to deal with your photography needs, look for Karri. Thank you so much for all of your help!
