Jennifer
Schuman

Early in her career, Jennifer worked with global companies including Intel, Caltex Petroleum, Pfizer, and GlaxoSmithKline, where she gained firsthand experience in strategic marketing, brand positioning, and the power of visual storytelling in shaping how companies communicate their value. Working within global corporate environments gave her a deep understanding of leadership, organizational culture, and the importance of clear messaging in complex business environments.

Over time, Jennifer felt called to bring those insights into a more personal and transformational space. She founded Horizon Photography in the Chicago area, where she now works with executives, entrepreneurs, and corporations to capture confidence and clear messaging through powerful portrait and personal brand photography. Her work bridges the gap between corporate strategy and human connection—helping leaders align how they show up visually, equipping them with visual assets that impact for good.

Jennifer’s leadership philosophy centers on authenticity, collaboration, and next-level thinking. As an executive facilitator, she creates environments where leaders can build meaningful relationships and gain clarity about their next chapter. Whether guiding board conversations, focused retreats, strategic conversations, or leadership experiences, she believes the most powerful breakthroughs happen when people feel seen, heard, and inspired.

Faith plays a central role in Jennifer’s approach to both leadership and business. As a Christian business owner, she views her work as a calling—an opportunity to serve others with integrity, generosity, and excellence. Her faith shapes the way she embraces conversations, supports leaders, and encourages others to step confidently into the purpose and gifts they have been given. Through her work, Jennifer strives to help individuals and organizations grow not only in success but also in character, vision, and collaborative benefit.

While in our London office, Jennifer was consistently creative, dedicated to the quality and alignment of her deliverables. She’s a great problem-solver, often taking positions that are outside of the typical response, creating greater value for the client.

Jennifer is so much more than an exceptional professional photographer or talented brand strategist. Her grasp of the power of marketing and personal branding through photos is rare and very much valued.

Jennifer is a wonderful photographer and an even better person. She joined our CMO Conference and created portraits of over 40 executives, including me. Most importantly, Jennifer isn’t just a photographer; she’s a personal branding expert, and her pictures are just one of the ways she helps other executives cut through.
