As the founder of Marcy Browe, I bring over 15 years of marketing and advertising expertise to my work as a branding photographer.

Transitioning to photography in 2007, I've built a business that uniquely combines technical marketing knowledge with creative vision. Certified as a Green Business Owner through the California Green Business Network, I operate an eco-conscious studio using sustainable practices and non-toxic products.My approach emphasizes environmental responsibility while delivering high-impact visual branding solutions. With a background in advertising and formal training in photography, I specialize in creating magazine-style images that authentically represent businesses and professionals.

I am quite possibly the least photogenic person I know, and just a smidge self-conscious about it. Therefore, as a professional photographer/videographer myself, I make a point to be the one taking the photo's. So when it came time for me to get a professional portrait I chose Marcy Browne. She had shot several professionals I know recently and their portraits look really great. I arrived to her studio in Oceanside and I was immediately put at ease with her kind and encouraging manner. (Trust me, I walked in with the anticipation of a root canal.) She oriented me to the surroundings and

I was personally uncomfortable with the idea of getting my photos taken, but Marcy made the whole experience SO pleasant and easy!! She had incredible communication leading up to the shoot with great tips to help me get prepared for the day. Then as soon as I walked in the room she put me at ease with her welcoming personality and warm demeanor She is an absolute pro and worked efficiently while still being exceptionally friendly. She gave perfect guidance on how to pose and took into account every last detail. The pictures were incredible!! I couldn't have wished for a better result. I was totally

Marcy is so amazing. From the moment you meet her you will know you've come to the right place. Not only does she make you feel absolutely comfortable behind the camera, she has such an eye for the perfect setting and pose to capture exactly what you're looking for. After finding my birth father Marcy took family photos that captured perfectly our union! Then she had a professional photoshoot for my fitness business. Life took a turn and I changed careers and now she has completed my headshots for my new Real Estate career. I can't recommend her enough for all your photo needs.

First, my pictures turned out amazing. Marcy has an eye for lighting, color and body posture. Beyond that, she can correct any small imperfections such as wrinkles or a crooked smile. (Smile.) She also makes the photo shoot fun. Unless you are a model, this isnt something that comes natural. Her personality transcends this awkwardnessyou will have good time.
