In true enneagram Type 3 fashion, I strive to keep my creative juices flowing outside of the workplace. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of working on a handful of creative and personal projects. Sometimes I’m an art director and other times I’m a stylist. And 100% of the time you’ll find me on set dancing to girl power playlists with sparkling water in hand and likely a prop in the other.
I’m happiest when creating, collaborating and inspiring others to do the same. This is the creative work I’m the most proud of because it is authentic, independently funded, and fun, from start to finish.
The changing of the seasons is such a bittersweet time of year. I’m constantly amazed at how one day, we’re suddenly and fully immersed into fall. This styled shoot embraces this transition, otherwise known as our seasonal EQUINOX. Each season comes with its own style, foliage and weather, and we think it’s worth celebrating!

See You in the Desert was a two-day shoot that took place in Palm Springs and Joshua Tree. We embraced a vibrant color palette, mid-century architecture, statement floral pieces and transformed a desert oasis into a boho-inspired living space.

Our Modern Bride embraces a bold, feminine look without leaning too traditional. A crucial element within our shoot was color. We strayed away from leaning too neutral. These looks are meant to inspire women who might not want a classic wedding look, but still want to feel just as bridal and beautiful on their big day.

Spring is a season when we reset and reflect and that is what we wanted our shoot REFLECT to evoke. We wanted our shoot to showcase all of these things, so we leaned into reflective props like mirrors, bubbles and a disco ball. We featured a floating floral installation and a floral umbrella installation. We also leaned into bold, neon color pops for our color palette. I think it’s safe to say, subtlety is not our forte.

You might be under the assumption that Seattle rains all of the time, right? Wrong! During the summer we wanted to show-off Seattle’s sunny side. So we did a thing. We took over an entire dock and captured our own take of what summers really look like here in the Pacific Northwest – flamingo floaties, popsicles, swimsuits, rosé and all!
