Like many artists, I see unlimited potential to transform the human experience. Beauty, design & creativity are a part of my soul. Let's daydream about locations, style, props and get truly inspired by who you are. Everyone has an inner-creator, and I can't wait to discover yours through my lens.

This is a full-on team effort. I want to no only support your vision but establish a heartfelt connection that we can continue long after our session. I'll listen to your desires and make thoughtful suggestions to fit your brand.
I love throwing ideas on the table to create a unique experience catered to you.

You belong to this community now. Beyond our time together, whether this is your only time or you come back for a brand refresh, I'll continue to show up and share my quirky ideas and make sure you get the most value from your session.
Oh, and I'll even let you know where to find the best pizza in town.
DISCOVERY
We'll hop on a call to get things rolling. This is our chance to talk over your vision, mood boards and your goals for the session. We'll get to know each other to see if we're a good fit.
BOOKING
You'll receive a follow-up email with your Custom Proposal. There isn't a one size fits all when it comes to brand pricing so you'll receive a proposal that caters to you! Sign the Contract and pay 50% Retainer fee and we're golden!
PLANNING
From here, I'll send you my availability (and do my best to coordinate with your preferred dates), location suggestions and guides on what to expect. You'll receive a Style Guide customized specifically to you and your brand creating the roadmap for our session.
SESSION
It's photo day! We'll meet at the designated location, with a copy of the Style Guide and get started (after some brief intros). Priority shots will be taken care of during the first part of the session which will leave time for us to play and get creative!
DELIVERY
Your gallery will consist of Proofs that you are able to make the final selections on what will get edited. This gives you full control on your final images that will be edited (option to purchase additional files).
PARTNERSHIP
We're not done yet! I continue to share tips and strategies with you along the way as your partner in content creation and not just someone that clicks a button. We'll take your brand visuals beyond just a new profile pic!
AVERAGE INVESTMENT | $1000+
Branding sessions are as unique as the business themselves. Small business owners, influencers, content creators or sellers need a curated library of images and video to use for content and marketing. With each business needs different from the rest, we will start with a base price and build on with your specific needs.
Typical Sessions include
⟡ Discovery Call
⟡ at least 2 hours in front of camera
⟡ 30+ High Resolution Images
⟡ 1:1 Pre-production call + Vibe Guide
⟡ 2+ Locations, 3 or more looks
⟡ Location scouting, talent casting & prop sourcing
⟡ Online Proofing Gallery to select your images with 3-4 week turnaround
⟡ Digital Commercial Use License


This is your branding. I edit your images true to color over the entire image. I also remove any distractions like light switches, flyaway hairs/skin imperfections or logos that aren't related to your brand. I want to make you look as natural as possible and allow your images to be adjusted to your specific brand style of editing.
Ah, this is a very common feeling. I like spending the first couple of minutes chatting, hearing about your life & stories and getting settled. I typically start with simple shots to get your jitters out and then it’s creative time. If we get stuck, I have a handy little app that I customize inspiration for each session.
Your Style Guide will walk you through wardrobe suggestions and details on your location. If you need help laying out your own personal space if we decide to shoot in your home, I'll provide easy tips to prepare your space.
Branding sessions include an unlimited Digital Use License. This is for digital use only meaning social media, websites, blog posts, etc. To use images in print or publications, you'll need to obtain a Print Use License, this cost is estimated based on your end use and image quantities.
YAS! I am so thrilled! Schedule your call below to make sure we are a good fit and get started on your custom package!

I’ve been thinking about offering a small round of branding mini sessions this spring — intentional, simple, and designed to create versatile content without a full-day commitment.
Before I plan anything, I’d love to know:
• Would you be interested in a mini branding session?
• What type of location feels most aligned? I have a few in mind—aesthetically beautiful with lots of furniture options but about 20 min outside Twin Cities or would something more local whether studio or home setting work better?
• What days/times tend to work best for you? Likely would be in the month of April or May.
I’m imagining something thoughtful and streamlined — not rushed, not overly styled — just enough space to create content that can stretch across seasons.
Comment below or send me a message if you’d want details. I’ll only move forward if there’s genuine interest.

Ever wondered what it’s like to juggle a camera, a casual vibe, and a flock of feathery friends? 🐔✨ I had the pleasure of hanging out with an amazing past client and her delightful chickens in her urban backyard coop! Who knew city life could be so... egg-citing? 😉
Capturing candid moments between my lovely client and her clucking companions was a reminder that you don’t always have to escape to the countryside to find a slice of nature. Sometimes, all you need is a coop and a camera! Next up will be once these chicks start producing eggs!
