Branding Photography with Marie Papp Photography
Professional Branding Photography in Hoboken, Jersey City & NYC
Your personal brand is more than just a professional headshot — it’s the visual story of who you are and what you represent. At Marie Papp Photography, every branding photo session starts with a strategic consultation to define your goals and the message you want your images to convey. Whether you’re updating your LinkedIn profile, launching a new business, or elevating your personal brand, we create authentic, impactful branding portraits that make a lasting impression.
With a background as a professional image consultant for the luxury menswear brand J.Hilburn and a Certified Color Consultant, Marie brings an expert eye for styling, color analysis, and wardrobe coordination to every session. She helps you select professional outfits and accessories that not only look amazing on camera but also enhance your natural coloring and reflect your unique style and industry presence.
Our retouching style is natural and refined, ensuring you look confident, approachable, and authentic — never overly airbrushed or unrealistic. For a seamless experience, professional hair and makeup services are available for most sessions.

"Look no further! I was so impressed by the amount of time and initiative Marie took in this process. From phone conversations to a thorough questionnaire, Marie invested time to understand what I was looking to accomplish and how to best reflect my brand. Being in front of a camera is not my favorite place, but Marie gave me tips and made the experience so comfortable and fun!"
- Kathryn Matarazzo

"Working with Marie was such a comfortable and easy experience. She really listened to who we are as a company and made sure our photos reflected our mission. Now we have a collection of images that not only look professional, but also feel like us—and that’s so important for connecting with our clients.”
– The Cartbloom Team

"Highly recommended! The process started with a phone call by Marie to learn a bit about myself and talk me through the process. Upon arriving the day of the shoot with various clothing options, Marie personally selected the colors/options best suited for me. Once we got to shooting, Marie made the process fun, easy and comfortable. I was impressed with how she took her time and is meticulous in every detail, ensuring she captures the ideal lighting/angles/poses. I am extremely happy with the end results - thanks again Marie!"
- Robert Kennedy

"Marie shot and edited all the images for my artist's website. I am not someone who loves to be in the "spotlight" or getting my picture taken. Marie made me feel very comfortable while also offering professional guidance to make sure I looked my best. I would definitely recommend her to others looking for help with their business brand."
