Again and again, I’d hear the same thing after a shoot:

"That was so much more than I expected."

"I feel like I actually see myself for the first time."

"This wasn’t just a photoshoot—this was clarity, confidence, and alignment."

At first, I brushed it off as a nice compliment. But the more I heard it, the more I realized—there was something deeper happening in my work.

Hey, I'm Kimberly!

For years, I was known as a brand photographer. But if you asked my clients, they'd tell you my work was never just about the photos.

Fun Facts About Kimberly

I'm ready!

Ready to bulid your legacy?

It was about the way my clients saw themselves. I wasn’t just taking their photos—I was empowering them to step into their authority. And once I saw it, I couldn’t unsee it.

The more I leaned into my work, the more I noticed something else: Most entrepreneurs weren’t struggling because they needed better marketing strategies or more visibility tactics.

They were struggling because they were disconnected from their own brand identity. They were looking for a way to be seen—without actually seeing themselves. And I knew this problem intimately. Because even though I was the one helping others step into their truth, I had spent years building my own business based on what I thought I should do.

I was following the "proven" strategies, investing in the right courses, and pushing myself to do more, be more, achieve more.

And at first, it worked. My brand was growing. My reputation was solid. My business was working.

It was never just about the images...

Because behind the scenes, I was drained. Burned out. Stuck in a cycle of constantly trying to prove my value, trying to keep up, and trying to fit into the industry’s expectations of what a “successful” entrepreneur should be. I was doing everything right… yet something felt deeply wrong. And that’s when I had to face a truth I had been avoiding: I had built success on someone else’s terms, not mine.

I hit a moment where I couldn’t keep pushing forward the same way. My body, my mind, and my business were all signaling that something needed to change. That’s when I started doing the deeper work—the kind of work most business strategies ignore.

I stopped looking for the next marketing hack and started asking what actually works for me? I started paying attention to the way my energy moved. I stopped trying to mold myself into a blueprint and started crafting a business model that felt natural, sustainable, and expansive.

And most importantly, I redefined what authority meant. Instead of chasing recognition, I started embodying my expertise. Instead of forcing consistency, I started honoring my unique rhythm. Instead of playing by someone else’s rules, I started creating my own.

Until I realized it wasn't.

The more I aligned my business with who I truly am, the easier it became to attract my people. Clients no longer needed to be convinced. My work spoke for itself. I became visible without forcing visibility.

That’s when I realized: Entrepreneurs don’t need more strategies. They need alignment. They don’t need to do more. They need to deepen into who they already are.

This is what led me to create Aligned & Authentic (A&A)—not just a framework, but a movement for entrepreneurs who are done with the outdated, forceful way of doing business.

A&A is where entrepreneurs take that first pivotal step—the step of realigning with their truth, reclaiming their authority, and letting go of everything that isn’t working.

But alignment isn’t a one-time thing. It’s a process. And momentum is just as important as the first step.

This is where most entrepreneurs get stuck: they have a breakthrough, they finally feel aligned… and then they fall back into old habits. They start second-guessing themselves, looking for the next shiny fix, or getting distracted by all the noise.

And what happened next changed everything.

That’s why I created Rising Entrepreneur Membership (REM)—to give soul-driven entrepreneurs a sustainable, structured way to maintain their flow.

REM is the monthly support system that keeps you moving in alignment. It’s where you learn how to work with your energy, your cycles, and your authority—without getting lost in burnout, distraction, or comparison.

✨ A&A is where you break free.
✨ REM is where you stay free.

Because success isn’t just about getting started. It’s about keeping the momentum going. My mission is clear: to guide soul-driven entrepreneurs out of the hustle and into their natural authority—while giving them the tools to sustain it. Because true authority isn’t about doing more—it’s about becoming more of yourself.

And when you do that? You don’t just build a business. You build a legacy.

Alignment isn’t just about starting differently—it’s about continuing differently.
