Go Gringo Lingo
Spanish Language Academy
Jennifer Colestock is the founder of Go Gringo Lingo, a Spanish Language Academy based here in Bend, Oregon. She has created a truly one-of-a-kind language learning experience designed to make Spanish feel approachable, practical, and fun. Through her engaging courses, interactive community events, and coffee meetups, she helps her students build real-world confidence while connecting through culture and conversation.
When Jennifer reached out, she was ready to elevate her brand visuals and create a new collection of photos that would reflect the heart of her teaching style: friendly, expressive, and full of personality. Her goal was to have a library of marketing content she could use to update her website, promote her Spanish courses, and highlight the vibrant learning community she’s built here in Central Oregon and online.

Branding Photography for Jennifer Colestock | Go Gringo Lingo
The plan: We began Jennifer’s session in the studio, capturing bright, lively portraits that show off her warm energy and love of teaching. From playful images featuring language-inspired props to classic professional headshots, these shots give her plenty of variety for her website, newsletters, and social media posts. We also documented live teaching moments over Zoom, showing a behind-the-scenes look at her virtual lessons that capture the connection she maintains with her students, even from afar.
To showcase the in-person side of her business, we photographed her leading a coffee chat, complete with laughter, Spanish conversation & games, and community interaction. We created a series of group photos featuring her students learning together indoors & outdoors, embodying the relaxed, collaborative feel that defines her brand.
“What an insanely fun experience! Miranda makes you feel comfortable (and kinda like a rock star) while she works her magic, and the final products are amazing. She has a unique gift in this area, and I will continue to shout her praises to anyone looking for an image refresh or branding assistance. This lady knows what she is doing, and she can make you look like you do, too.” - Jennifer Colestock | Go Gringo Lingo
