Season 2, Bonus

The Evolution of Natalie Franke’s Brand

On this episode, speaking with community leader & author Natalie Franke,

who also happened to be my very first brand client ever! Natalie’s new website is HOT off the presses with a complete overhaul of her visual brand- we’re talking a fresh logo, color palette, typography, and spankin new brand photos by yours truly.

In this rare interview-style episode, we’ll be diving into WHY Natalie chose now to overhaul her brand, how she got started (and how she’d MAYBE start in a different order the next time around), the messaging shift in her brand that was the main driving force behind so many of the visual elements, and why she went almost seven years between her last rebrand and this one. 

If you’ve yet to encounter the force of nature and heart that is Natalie Franke, she’s an author, community builder, neuroscience nerd and mama bear for small business.

As one of the founders of the Rising Tide, the Chief Evangelist at HoneyBook, and author of Built to Belong, she leads tens of thousands of independent business owners while fostering a spirit of community over competition around the world.

Being a creative doesn't mean you’re condemned to the life of a starving artist. You can find massive success in business AND satisfaction in your work, all while getting enough sleep each night and working a non-insane number of hours— one doesn’t have to come at the expense of the other. 

Helping photographers lean into their artistic
gifts AND earn a healthy profit from their work,
without sacrificing their sanity in the process.
