COVID 19 UPDATE
Due to the "up close and personal" nature of photo shoots, with me adjusting your wardrobe, plus the hair & makeup artist in close proximity, we are all committed to respecting the health and safety of everyone. My photo shoot team is vaccinated, and we will be masked for your peace of mind. Whenever possible, we will maintain a distance of at least six feet.
Please reach out if you have questions. Thanks and stay safe!

About LIZPR
I’m a Toronto-based branding and social media consultant for (mainly) classical musicians. I’ve done media relations since 1996. Now I’m focussing on branding and image consulting. A complete list of what I do is located in the “LIZPR Services” tab.
Coordinating, styling, and directing photo shoots are what I’m known for. I’ll identify your best image, and be your vanity police. Your clothes and poses will look great and will represent you and what you do. I’ll ensure you look awesome and that your photos are workable for marketing yourself.
