There are 2 places my homeschooler undoubtedly shows: on the dance floor at a wedding and when writing something by hand. Whatever you’re imagining for the first is probs right on the money, so let’s skip to the second. I’ve been told on many occasions that I have great handwriting. 9x/10 my reply is, “Thanks. […]

How do you photograph a team that might change in the coming months? How do you create images that can outlast the faces graced within them? That was the challenge we stepped up to when creating these images for Kelly Roberts and Balsam and Blush Photography, a Cleveland, Ohio based wedding photography team. Kelly is […]

A Blueprint for More Original Content → Swipe these 4 Formulas My legs had fallen asleep. I was miles down a research rabbit hole and at least 1.5hrs over the timer I’d set for the “generate content ideas” task on my to-do list. [When it comes to research, I can get a bit carried away.] […]

In a mastermind program with Shanna Skidmore last year, she deposited a bit of insight [more like a shining beam of light […]

Brand photographer taking photos for a copywriter

What Is Brand Photography? If we’re rollin’ with the default answer I dish out to the average coffee-shop goer who asks what I do, I’d start with – brand photography could be described as a small business’s take on traditional, commercial photography. Now that the small business realm has officially taken up long-term residence in […]

Sometimes I still have a “pinch me” moment when I look back on this shoot. The day that Rachael’s inquiry rolled into my inbox, I was so stoked. She’s a retired pro athlete and Olympic bronze medalist turned mentor for young athletes looking to blaze a path similar to the one she’s walked. Talk about […]
