This month we read Beneath by Ariel Sullivan! Join me for a brief discussion on the book and a BIG update on how the book club episodes will look moving forward!

Today I am joined by Sirena Singleton! Sirena is a heart-centered branding photographer and small business brand strategist who specializes in strategy-led brand photography. She helps creatives and established business owners translate their brand story into visuals that are aligned, confident, and designed to convert.

Sirena guides her clients through clarity around their brand messaging, audience, and goals so their visuals support consistency, connection, and long-term growth. Through this approach, brands move beyond “pretty content” and into visuals that position them as experts and drive real revenue.

After working closely with small business owners, Sirena saw a major gap: incredible brands struggling to show up visually in a way that truly reflected their value. That realization led her to build The Aneris Collective, where brand photography meets thoughtful strategy to create an authentic, irresistible presence that attracts their people and supports sustainable business growth.

In this episode we chat about how Sirena began her photography business, why she transitioned to branding photography, how her services are different than others in the industry, why branding is important, and so much more!
