Brands & local businesses · Photography + video

Let's show what makes your business yours.

I photograph teams, products, job sites, events, and performances, and create video for business websites and social channels. The work starts with what you need customers to understand about your business.

We can plan a single shoot or discuss ongoing content. Getting to know a team over time helps me understand what to cover and how to fit the shoot around their work.

A flexible creative partner

There's a story in the everyday work.

You don't need a big launch or a perfectly planned idea to have something worth sharing. We can start with the parts of your business you're proud of and build from there.

Local

Shops & small businesses

The space, the people, and the work that goes into each day all help someone get to know you. I look for those details so a photo or video feels like a first introduction to your business.

Brand

Campaign content

For a launch, season, or new idea, we can plan photos and videos around what you want people to notice. I like finding a way to make the message feel connected to an actual experience.

Live

Events & performances

I capture the atmosphere alongside the moments you don't want to miss. For events and live music, that means bringing some of the feeling of being there into what people see afterward.

Ongoing

A steady content library

If you need fresh content over time, we can talk about planned shoots around what's happening in your business. That gives us room to capture new people, products, and everyday moments as things change.

Ways we can build the project

Photos and videos you can put to use.

We'll plan around where you want to share the work, whether that's your website, social channels, or a campaign. The mix can be simple or cover a few formats, depending on what you need.

Photo

Brand photography

Photos of your people, space, products, and process can give someone a feel for your business at a glance. I bring together wider scenes and the smaller details that make it personal.

Video

Story-led video

A short introduction, a behind-the-scenes look, or an event recap can show more of who you are. I focus on the experience and the parts of the story you want people to remember.

Social

Vertical content

Vertical clips can share a quick moment, show something being made, or bring people behind the scenes. We can create them around your social channels and the message you want to share.

Library

Multi-use assets

We can plan a mix of photos and videos so you have different angles and moments to draw from. Where and how you'll use them is something we'll agree on before the shoot.

Local businesses, portraits, and performances each have something different to share. Browse the full portfolio for more photography and video across the work I create.

928 Roofing · Local business

A day on the job.

I create photos and videos for 928 Roofing, joining the team on job sites to document their work. Working with a business over time gives me a better understanding of what they do and the things they want to share.

Studio · Portrait photography

Studio portraits.

Photography started with capturing my own life and the people around me. I still enjoy that side of it, and photograph portraits in the studio as well as on location. It's a chance to focus on the person and make something they can look back on.

Serenade Events · Live performance

Serenade Events.

Music has been one of my creative interests alongside photography and video. Photographing the musicians from Serenade Events during an outdoor performance brought those interests together, while documenting their work as it happened.

How I approach the work

A relationship, not just a shoot.

Some of my client relationships have lasted a decade. I value that trust, and it comes from understanding the business as well as making the work.

For a new project, that starts with listening: what do you need to show, where will people see it, and what has been missing from the content you already have? Those answers help us plan a useful shoot.

From idea to useful content

Let's start with your idea.

Tell me what you're working on, and we can figure out the kind of content that makes sense for it.

01

Share the goal

Share a little about your business, who you want to reach, and what you'd like them to know. A link and a rough idea are enough to start.

02

Shape the story

We agree on the locations, coverage, final photos or videos, timing, budget, usage, and revision arrangements. For an active workplace, we also discuss how the shoot will fit around the team.

03

Capture what matters

I work through the shoot we've planned and keep looking for opportunities that might be useful to you. The goal is to create the photos and videos we've agreed on, with care put into both the work and the experience of working together.

Before we create

Before we get together.

A few practical details to help us start the conversation.

Do I need a finished brief?

No. Tell me about the business and what you're hoping to share. We can work through ideas and decide what to focus on together.

Can a project include both photography and video?

Yes. We can plan photos, longer videos, vertical social clips, or a mix. Knowing where you want to use them helps us choose what makes sense.

Do you cover events and live performances?

Yes, events and live music fit into this work too. Send the date, location, schedule, and what you'd like captured so we can discuss availability and the right approach.

How are usage and posting handled?

Let me know where you want to share the content and whether paid ads are part of the plan. We'll agree on usage and any posting to my own channels before the project starts.
