TWIN CIties lifestyle-inspired branding photo + VIDEO for creative business owners, boutique brands, & cozy families

Whether you launched your business last week or last decade, you've built a brand with a story to tell! Only...telling that story takes up a WHOLE lot more time and energy than you ever thought it would. From strategically planning your product photography, to finding unique ways to showcase your space, to trying to come up with new ways to get your face on your social media feed, keeping an effective brand photography strategy alive isn't easy.

What if you could partner with a trusted collaborator to get the images you need in a fraction of the time?

Well, have I got great news for you...

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

I really do love getting along with everyone, it must be the Enneagram 9 side of me. With my down-to-earth charm and my ability to make everyone feel comfortable, I provide an intentional space for you to just be...you.

This isn't your passport photo, I want to document how you interact with your team or products and how your own creative pursuit lights you up.

 

Environmentally mindful - both in aesthetic and approach, I want to leave this world better than before. With a design background, my attention to detail is on point. I'll make sure the handle of your coffee cup is turned just right, your fly away hair is smooth and that dreamy light is perfectly positioned to show off your smile.

Did you know I was an

✨ I know I could basically copy and paste a well worded caption from ChatGPT about how incorporating video content with your session is super beneficial and it allows your audience to connect with you on a more personal level. But the caption felt so heavily worded and not at all like I sound so instead, here is a video behind the scenes of @ovohomes and then an image to go along with it. Don't you feel like you got a sneak peek behind the curtain of how we captured these stunning images? How about the fact that this photoshoot not only elevated her brand but allowed her to use special content to make some announcements within her own brand? 

Many people worry that adding video to their sessions might be overwhelming or complicated, but it doesn't have to be! Start small. We can simply set up a camera to capture candid moments or use a smartphone to record snippets of the shoot like we did during Olivia's session. This way, your audience gets a sneak peek into how you work, the fun interactions, and the little quirks that make your style unique. 

So, why not give it a try? Add it to your next brand session with me and see where it takes your business!

As the dust settles, I find myself navigating a whirlwind of emotions. It’s a time of reflection, uncertainty, and hope all rolled into one. I believe it’s important to pause and take a moment to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us, even amid chaos. So here's a cute photo of me and my family. 🌿✨
